Manage Marketplace budgets

Learn how to manage budgets for your team in Marketplace via the web app.

Why set Marketplace budgets?

Setting a budget for your users or buying group helps you ensure resources are used wisely. This allows you to allocate budgets by project or location, prioritize essential products, and avoid unnecessary costs. Additionally, team members can request approvals for orders that exceed the budget, so administrators can review and approve these requests before finalizing purchases in the Marketplace.

Purchasing products from the SafetyCulture Marketplace is currently only available to customers in Australia and the U.S.
