  • Cart and checkout with clinic-specific pricing, including quantity-tiered discounts
  • Order tracking from confirmation to receive
  • Collections and payment confirmation between clinic and supplier
  • Supplier rating after an order closes, visible to other clinics
  • Delivery agents for shipping and receive exceptions

From browse to delivery agent

The marketplace covers the full clinic–supplier loop: discover products, place the order, track shipping, confirm receive, and settle dues — with delivery agents accountable for last-mile handoff.

  • Order tracking and receive exceptions
  • Collections confirmation and return credits
  • Delivery agent assignment for shipping

A smarter purchase, backed by real comparison

Before confirming an order, see the same product priced side by side across every contracted supplier and pick the lowest price directly. Suppliers can also set an automatic discount that kicks in once the ordered quantity passes a threshold they choose per clinic.

  • Price comparison for the same product across suppliers while browsing
  • Quantity-tiered discounts a supplier sets per clinic
  • A star rating from the clinic after an order closes, helping other clinics choose

Why clinics care

  • One place to order and follow up with suppliers
  • Better purchasing decisions from price comparison and ratings before ordering
  • Clear dues and return credits per clinic
  • Delivery agents keep shipping accountable
