Ecommerce & marketplace overview

Ecommerce and marketplace platforms designed around your real constraints

We see ecommerce as an end-to-end system: products, content, search, pricing, promotions, checkout, fulfilment and after-sales. For marketplaces we also consider vendor onboarding, payouts and dispute management.

When QalbIT is a good fit for ecommerce and marketplaces

  • You have outgrown a basic ecommerce template and need deeper control or integrations.
  • You want to build a multi-vendor marketplace with custom commission, approval or logistics logic.
  • You sell B2B and need contract pricing, credit limits or ordering flows that standard tools do not support well.
  • You are planning a new ecommerce or marketplace concept and need both UX and engineering expertise.

Outcomes we target with ecommerce and marketplace work

  • Higher conversion and repeat purchase rates from clearer UX and better performance.
  • Less manual support work for orders, returns and basic questions.
  • Cleaner data and reporting across products, orders, customers and vendors.
  • A platform that you can extend to new categories, regions or business models over time.

We usually prioritise a strong foundation for catalogue, search and checkout, then layer in advanced marketplace or B2B features based on adoption.
