What are Public Extensions?
These are extensions that you create for a large number of merchants. Your extension is published on the marketplace.
Since public extensions are open to the masses, it goes through an approval process after you create them. Fynd will check whether the extension meets the standard guidelines, following which it will be published on the marketplace.
