Marketplace context

Marketplace payments must be tied to auction outcomes and operational release.

A winning bid is not the end of the transaction. Buyers need invoices and payment instructions. Sellers need payout visibility. Operators need deposits, fees, holds, refunds, settlement and release controls. Bidvantic keeps payment status connected to the marketplace record. Best fit: marketplaces where high-value transactions need payment status, fee calculation and fulfilment control connected to auction outcomes.
