Marketplace
Marketplace Overview
How the Marketplace's Apps and Templates sections differ, and where each one is used.
Marketplace is a top-level section of TDC Site Builder — its own item in the main navigation, alongside Dashboard, Plans & Billing, and Webhooks & API. It's a dropdown with two distinct destinations: Apps and Templates.
Despite sharing one nav entry, Apps and Templates are unrelated features with different purposes, access models, and pricing:
| Apps | Templates | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Third-party integrations you connect to a site — analytics, marketing, forms, scheduling, support, and more. | Prebuilt designs for a single section (e.g. a specific Hero or Pricing layout) that you add to a page. |
| Where you browse it | Marketplace → Apps (/apps) | Marketplace → Templates (/templates) |
| Access is granted to | A workspace — installed to one site or the entire workspace at once. | A user — but on any given site, only the site's workspace owner's purchases and grants apply. |
| Cost | Included with your plan (subject to feature gating — see Feature Access). Some apps connect to third-party services that may have their own separate cost. | Free, or a flat one-time price per item. |
| Where you use it | The site's Apps tab, to configure it — see Apps. A few apps also add a block to the page editor. | The editor's Sections tab, where owned items appear alongside built-in presets. |
Despite the name, Templates aren't full page or site templates — each item is a single, specific design for one section category, not a multi-section layout. See Templates for how the feature actually works.
