Businesses, large and small, can now create their own free store to sell and promote their products and services. WhyAbe Stores are ideal for businesses that are attempting to dispose of excess or obsolete inventory, but do not have the time, resources, or finances to open their own commerce site or deal with inventory brokers.

Store owners can control their terms and conditions, company profile, payment options, shipment charges, and inventory directly from their dashboard. WhyAbe.com even provides that ability to complete transactions through PayPal, and automatically updates inventory. Store owners can control their logo, banner and color schemes of their store, and also have the ability to create their own categories for products or services.

WhyAbe.com allows store owners to list up to ten products or services for sale at absolutely no cost. Unlike other commerce websites, WhyAbe does not charge a transaction fee on the sale of goods or services to the buyer or the supplier. Larger stores can be opened by suppliers for an extremely low monthly cost or by contacting Source One directly to develop a partnership arrangement.

In addition to the new stores, WhyAbe has improved the user interface of the entire site. The dashboard has been improved to include centralized management of RFX listings, regardless of if the user is a supplier or a buyer. The improved user interface provides an easier to navigate site with quick on-demand access to the data that buyers and suppliers need.
