What the app is
The Seen Markets mobile app (iOS and Android) lets hosts and vendors manage everything from their phone. Same account as the website — sign in once, switch between your host (organization) and vendor (your business) context as needed.Who it’s for
- Hosts: Create events, add recurring dates, message vendors directly, view and share markets, and access the getting started checklist. Detailed setup (booth map design, application form editing, vendor table) is easier on seenmarkets.com.
- Vendors: See markets you’ve applied to, explore new markets, apply to more dates, choose booths, edit your profile, message hosts, track payments, access the loyalty program, and order booth supplies.
