Generally, it takes around 2-6 months to finalize and release the project.

How much does it cost to create a custom marketplace?

It is almost impossible to give an exact price. We encourage individual approach and estimate each project with its requirements and tasks on an individual basis. Development from scratch or based on an existing solution, integrations and customizations, and design are all factors to consider. If you already have an idea, don’t hesitate to book a call with us to get a rough estimate.

How do marketplaces work? What is a marketplace example?

A marketplace is an online platform that brings together vendors and buyers. Sellers display their products or services on the platform available for purchase. Buyers find the needed item, add it to the shopping cart and process to checkout. The marketplace integrated with payment gateways and shipping services allows customers to select the most convenient way of payment and delivery.
Popular examples of marketplaces are Amazon, AliExpress, and eBay.

How do I make a profit from the marketplace?
