Marketplace Platform Development
Two-sided marketplace businesses connecting buyers and sellers across the United States are what Vaylo Studios builds infrastructure for. Service marketplaces, product exchanges, niche verticals: we engineer the transaction layer that makes both sides work.
Investment
Pricing depends on transaction logic, vendor onboarding, payment splits, and custom features.

Support and Growth
We offer monthly retainer plans covering updates, new sections, and performance improvements. Prefer full ownership? We hand off everything so you can run it independently.
Common Questions
How are marketplace payments structured between vendors and the platform?
We use Stripe Connect to route payments between buyers, vendors, and the platform, manage vendor payouts, and process refunds. The platform commission rate is configurable per transaction type.
Do vendors get their own dashboard to manage listings and orders?
Yes. Vendor dashboards cover product and service listings, incoming orders, payout history, and performance analytics. Platform administrators control the permissions each vendor role can access and edit.
What trust and safety features can be built into the platform?
Reviews and ratings, dispute resolution workflows, identity verification integrations, and fraud detection logic are all buildable components. We scope what is needed based on the risk profile of your marketplace category.
How long does it take to build a two-sided marketplace platform?
A marketplace with vendor onboarding, listings, and payment splits typically takes 3 to 6 months depending on feature depth. We phase the build so core buying and selling functionality ships first, with advanced features following.
Can you build a marketplace tailored to a specific niche industry?
Yes. Category-specific marketplaces with industry-targeted listing fields, specialized verification workflows, and buyer qualification requirements are precisely what we build. A focused niche platform is far more defensible than competing on a general-purpose marketplace.
