## 📝 NOTES & BEST PRACTICES

### Commission Configuration:
- Set commission percentage (e.g., 10% = 10.00)
- Or set fixed amount (e.g., ₹50)
- Commission type can be changed per vendor
- Commission automatically calculated on checkout

### Security Considerations:
- ⚠️ Admin should verify vendor documents before approval
- ⚠️ Bank details are masked for security
- ⚠️ File uploads should be scanned for malware in production
- ⚠️ Implement rate limiting on API endpoints
- ⚠️ Consider 2FA for vendor logins in production

### Performance Tips:
- Use eager loading when displaying vendor lists
- Cache frequent queries (vendor stats, etc.)
- Optimize images before upload
- Index database columns used in searches

### Future Enhancements (Optional):
- SMS/Email notifications for order updates
- Vendor analytics dashboard
- Multi-currency support
- Automated payout scheduling
- Vendor subscription plans
- Product import/export
- Vendor messaging system
- Customer chat support
- Mobile app integration
