Welcome back!
One of the best ways to reduce stress is knowing exactly where to find the information you need.
The Payments section of your Vendor Portal gives you a convenient place to view and manage your market-related payments. Whether you’re paying a daily vendor fee, renewing your membership, or making another market payment, everything is organized in one location.
Let’s take a look at how simple it is.
Why This Matters
Managing payments shouldn’t be confusing.
The Payments section helps you quickly see what payments are due, complete transactions securely, and keep your market participation current.
Having one convenient location for market-related payments saves time, reduces paperwork, and makes it easier to focus on what matters most—preparing for a successful market day.
Knowing where to find your payment information also helps avoid last-minute surprises and keeps everything running smoothly.
Watch and Learn
Managing Your Market Payments
In this lesson, you’ll learn where to find your Payments section, review your available payment options, and complete a payment securely through the Vendor Portal.
Let’s Do It Together
Let’s explore the Payments section.
- Open your Vendor Dashboard.
- Select Payments.
- Review the payment options available to you.
- Open a payment to see how the process works.
- Return to your dashboard.
Don’t worry if you don’t have a payment due today. The goal is simply to become familiar with where everything is located.
⭐ Special Note
Pay early whenever possible.
Completing payments before market day gives you one less thing to think about and helps Market Operations prepare for a smooth, organized market.
If you’re an annual vendor who pays quarterly or annually, your vendor fees are essential to the continued success of the Greensboro Farmers Curb Market. They help fund the day-to-day operations that keep the market running, support advertising and promotional efforts that attract new customers, and provide the resources needed to create a dynamic, welcoming market for everyone.
Every vendor’s investment helps strengthen our market. Together, we’re building a thriving community where local businesses can grow, customers can discover amazing products, and Greensboro continues to celebrate the value of shopping local.
If you ever have a question about a payment, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re always happy to help.
