A marketplace is harder to run than a shop.
A multi-vendor marketplace has to do several difficult things at once. Shoppers need to discover sellers and products they would never find on a conventional shelf, while the platform behind the scenes keeps track of products from many independent sellers.
We build marketplace platforms around the operating model, not the other way around:
- Vendor and product workflows
- Custom marketplace requirements
- Payments and customer data connected across the platform
- Multi-location inventory and dynamic international duties
- Orders containing products from several brands
