THE CHALLENGE

the cost of a marketplace

Knowing how much a marketplace costs without context leads to poor comparison and budget surprises.

  • Two-sided supply and demand

    Cost grows because you must build distinct experiences for sellers and buyers that interact with each other.

  • Split payments and commissions

    Splitting each payment between the platform and the seller adds settlement and commission logic that raises development cost.

  • Catalogue and search at scale

    Managing thousands of products with filters, sorting and efficient search requires a well-designed database.

APPROACH

We work with transparency and measurable phases.

  1. Map roles and permissions

    We define what each user type can do before quoting, so you don't pay for features nobody will use.

  2. Define the commission flow

    We specify how each transaction is split to size the payment gateway and reconciliation correctly.

  3. Catalogue prototype

    We validate the catalogue data structure with a reduced model before scaling up.

  4. Progressive payment integration

    We roll out the gateway in phases, starting with one country and one method, to control integration costs.
