Marketplace Development

Multi-vendor marketplaces with onboarding, commissions, and payouts solved.

Overview

A marketplace is three products in one — buyer experience, seller tooling, and an operations engine — and BetaZen builds all three. Expect vendor onboarding with KYC, catalogue management with Elasticsearch-powered search, commission engines, split payments and automated settlements via Razorpay Route, ratings and dispute workflows, and separate vendor and admin dashboards.

We have scoped and shipped marketplace platforms for founders in Kolkata targeting Bharat’s tier-2 towns as well as ventures across India and abroad, bringing hyperlocal delivery patterns and national-scale architectures to the same table.

Why choose BetaZen

Settlements without spreadsheets

Commissions calculate per order and payouts reach vendor accounts automatically on schedule — the finance job that kills marketplaces is simply gone.

Sellers onboard themselves

Guided KYC, catalogue upload tools, and a self-serve vendor panel let supply grow without your team hand-holding every listing.

Trust engineered in

Verified badges, review integrity checks, and structured dispute resolution give buyers confidence — the currency any young marketplace lives on.

How we work

1

Discovery & Strategy

We start by understanding your goals, users, and constraints, then map the fastest path to measurable outcomes.

2

Design & Architecture

We design the experience and the system architecture up front so what we build scales cleanly and predictably.

3

Agile Delivery

We ship in short, reviewable increments with continuous testing so you see working software early and often.

4

Launch & Support

We handle deployment, monitoring, and handover — and stay on to iterate, optimize, and support post-launch.

Frequently asked questions

Can you build a hyperlocal marketplace for West Bengal cities?

Yes — serviceable-area logic, local-language readiness, delivery-slot management, and COD reconciliation are patterns we know well, and being based in Kolkata means we understand the markets you are targeting first-hand.

What does a marketplace cost to build?

A launch-ready two-sided marketplace generally runs ₹8–20 lakh depending on category and logistics complexity. We usually phase it: core buying and selling first, then advanced features funded by real traction.

How do vendor payments and commissions work?

Payments split at source — Razorpay Route divides each order’s proceeds between vendor and platform per your commission rules, with settlement reports, TDS handling, and refund clawbacks managed automatically.

How do we get the first sellers and buyers?

Solve supply first: we build importer tools and concierge onboarding for your initial vendor cohort, then optimise buyer acquisition with SEO-ready category pages and referral hooks once inventory is credible.
