Step 3: Enable “I Am a Vendor” (Very Important) #

On the registration form:

✔ Check the box that says “I am a vendor” or “Register as a Seller”

⚠️ If this box is not checked, your account will be created as a customer only.


Step 4: Submit Your Registration #

After completing the form:

  1. Review your information
  2. Click Register or Sign Up
  3. You’ll see a confirmation message

📧 You may receive an email confirming your registration.


Step 5: Seller Account Review & Approval #

After registering:

  • Your seller account is reviewed by Kingston Express
  • Approval may be manual (to protect customers and sellers)
  • You may be contacted for:
    • Additional information
    • Verification documents

Approval time may vary.


Step 6: Log In to Your Seller Dashboard #

Once approved:

  1. Go to My Account → Dashboard
  2. You’ll now see the Seller Dashboard instead of just a customer view
  3. From here, you can:
    • Add products
    • Manage orders
    • Configure your store
