Multi-vendor marketplace platform for UK operators tired of per-sale fees

Launch your own online marketplace in the UK without paying a cut of every order to a platform. Onboard unlimited sellers, set your own commission and keep payouts, VAT records and returns in one dashboard. Think of a Manchester craft collective onboarding 40 makers at a 12% commission, like a local Etsy, or a Bristol vintage furniture marketplace where buyers request a quote on large items.

One tool for the entire lifecycle of your marketplace.

Sellers & Onboarding

Turn visitors into active sellers through a simple onboarding flow: each merchant creates an account, fills in their shop profile, uploads products and enters your approval queue. You decide who lists on your marketplace, and vendors get their own dashboard from day one.

  • Unlimited independent sellers, no per-vendor fee
  • Approval, verification and shop profile flow
  • A dedicated dashboard per vendor
  • Unified catalog and search across the storefront

Commissions & Split payments

Monetize every transaction automatically. On each order, money is split instantly between vendor and platform via Stripe Connect, and your commission is withheld and invoiced with no manual work. Set different commission rules per category or vendor, and schedule payouts however you like.

  • Flat or percentage commissions, per vendor or category
  • Automatic split payments via Stripe Connect
  • Scheduled payouts to vendors (daily/weekly)
  • Automatic invoicing of the platform commission

Orders & Marketplace operations

Run the whole marketplace from a single panel. See vendors, orders, stock and collected commissions in real time, while each vendor manages their own inventory. Returns, disputes and reports are centralized, so you keep the marketplace under control without getting lost in detail.

  • Consolidated panel: vendors, orders, commissions
  • Each vendor manages their own stock
  • Sales reports per vendor and per storefront
  • Returns and disputes handled centrally

Courier per seller

Shipping works correctly even when an order contains products from several vendors. Each shipper generates their own AWB through the integrated couriers, the customer gets real-time tracking, and delivery costs are configured per vendor — with no logistics headache for you.

  • DHL, DPD, GLS and UPS natively integrated
  • AWB generated by the shipping vendor
  • Real-time tracking for every customer
  • Delivery costs configured per vendor

High-performance technologies for your marketplace

A marketplace with thousands of products from dozens of vendors needs infrastructure that doesn't buckle under traffic. We run a modern stack — PostgreSQL for safe transactional data, Redis for sub-millisecond cache and sessions, ClickHouse for real-time analytics and Docker for horizontal scaling. The result: catalog and search under 100 ms, stable checkout at traffic peaks and 99.9% uptime.

The same infrastructure on every plan — see how each technology helps your marketplace:

4marketplace

Multi-vendor marketplaces for every vertical

4marketplace works for any kind of multi-vendor marketplace — from fashion and beauty to electronics, food delivery and handmade crafts. Onboard independent sellers and launch your storefront in minutes, whatever your niche.

Fashion & Second-hand

Fashion & Second-hand

A marketplace of many fashion brands and second-hand sellers under one storefront — each with their own shop, colour and size variants, photo galleries and advanced filters. The platform commission applies automatically on every sale.

Each vendor manages their own stock, orders and returns from their dashboard, while you, the operator, see the unified catalog, verified reviews and consolidated revenue.

Food Delivery & Producers

Food Delivery & Producers

A food-delivery marketplace with many restaurants, farms and local producers — each with their own menu and delivery area. Set per-vendor commissions and automatic split payments via Stripe Connect on every order.

Works perfectly for local markets, delis, specialty coffee shops and organic producers. Customers order from multiple shops under one storefront, with same-day scheduled delivery.

Beauty & Cosmetics

Beauty & Cosmetics

A marketplace of fragrances, cosmetics, skincare and supplements with many merchants — detailed product pages, ingredient lists, certifications and usage guides per vendor. Gift sets and monthly subscriptions from different brands.

Integrate with 4invoices for automatic invoicing of each vendor and WhatsApp Business for notifications. Every shop has its own reputation and reviews within the marketplace.

Electronics & IT

Electronics & IT

A marketplace of phones, laptops, accessories and components with many retailers — structured technical specs, product comparison and per-vendor warranty. Each vendor's stock syncs in real time.

Buyers compare offers from multiple vendors for the same product, and the payment is split automatically between vendor and platform. Instalment payments enabled per shop.

Home & Garden

Home & Garden

A marketplace of furniture, decor, tools and appliances with many suppliers — 3D/AR visualisation, size configurator and associated services (assembly, design) sold by specialised vendors.

Large orders get team delivery, and each supplier sets their own shipping costs. The platform commission and vendor payouts are calculated automatically.

Handmade & Artisan

Handmade & Artisan

A marketplace of jewellery, ceramics, paintings, candles and custom products from dozens of artisans — each with their own workshop, made-to-order personalisation and their own production time.

A local alternative to Etsy, under your brand: artisans publish products into the unified catalog, receive orders directly and get paid through split payments, while you keep the platform commission.

Sports & Outdoor

Sports & Outdoor

A marketplace of sports equipment, bicycles, fitness and outdoor products with many sellers — technical filters (weight, material, use) and selection guides across the whole storefront.

Vendors can also offer equipment rental with online booking, and the marketplace aggregates offers from specialised shops, with split payments and automatic payouts.

Books & Digital

Books & Digital

A marketplace of physical books, e-books, online courses and digital products from many publishers and independent authors — instant delivery for digital goods and access codes generated automatically on payment.

Each vendor lists their own catalog and the platform commission applies on every sale. Verified reviews, ratings and wishlists help customers discover products across the storefront.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the most common questions about the 4marketplace platform and running a multi-vendor marketplace.

How long does it take to launch a marketplace on 4marketplace?
You can launch your marketplace the same day: pick a storefront template, configure commissions, connect Stripe Connect and invite your first vendors. The initial setup takes between 30 minutes and a few hours, depending on how much catalog you want live at launch.
How do commissions and split payments work?
You set a platform commission — flat or percentage, global or per vendor. On every order, Stripe Connect automatically splits the payment: the vendor gets their share and your commission lands in the platform account. All automatic, with no manual reconciliation.
Do I need technical skills or coding knowledge?
None at all. You build and run the marketplace visually from the panel, without writing a single line of code. Vendors manage their own products and orders from their own dashboard.
How many vendors can I onboard and how do I approve them?
As many as you want: all four plans — Start, Plus, Pro and Enterprise — include unlimited vendors and unlimited products. Each seller registers, completes their shop profile and goes through your approval flow. Once approved, the vendor publishes their own products into the marketplace's unified catalog.
Does each vendor get their own panel?
Yes. Every vendor has their own dashboard for products, stock, orders and payouts, while you, as the marketplace operator, see everything consolidated: vendors, orders, collected commissions and reports.
How do I manage the unified catalog and search?
Products from all vendors flow into one shared catalog, with categories, filters and fast search across the whole storefront. Listings are automatically SEO- and GEO-optimized so your marketplace shows up in Google and in AI answers.

What it is

What is 4marketplace.net

4marketplace.net is the platform to build and run your own multi-vendor marketplace — an alternative to selling on Amazon, eMAG or Etsy or to building a marketplace from scratch. You onboard independent sellers under one storefront, each with their own dashboard, set configurable commissions and collect with split payments via Stripe Connect, over a unified catalog and search — without writing a single line of code. Everything is hosted, SSL-secured and optimized for Google from day one.

What marketplaces you can launch

  • Multi-brand retail marketplace (many shops under one storefront)
  • Fashion and second-hand marketplace with independent sellers
  • Handmade and artisan marketplace
  • Food-delivery marketplace with many restaurants
  • B2B / wholesale marketplace with multiple suppliers
  • Local services and bookings marketplace
  • Tourism / experiences marketplace
  • Auto parts and accessories marketplace

Pros

  • Launch your marketplace in minutes, not months
  • Configurable commissions per vendor, global or percentage
  • Automatic split payments via Stripe Connect — vendor payouts
  • A dedicated dashboard per vendor + a consolidated operator panel
  • Unified catalog and search across all vendors
  • SEO- & GEO-optimized by design: green Core Web Vitals

Cons

We are transparent — here is where 4marketplace.net is not yet the best fit:

  • No public third-party plugin marketplace (in development)
  • Products are unlimited on every plan, but a catalog of millions of SKUs needs the 60 GB storage tier
  • Split payments require active Stripe Connect accounts for vendors
  • Migrating a large catalog from another platform requires assistance
