Why is a marketplace the logical next step in growing sales?

Zero investment in warehousing

You test new categories and expand your offer without investing in warehouse space or inventory.

Faster catalog growth

You broaden your assortment through the offers of third-party sellers instead of waiting for your own stock.

A new revenue stream

Lower capital outlay than expanding your own assortment, and a clear settlement model: commissions, split payment.

A model tailored to your strategy

We implement both the 3P model and dropshipping, selecting the one that genuinely fits your business.

Proven architecture from day one

A ready-made solution in a Composable & Headless architecture, with built-in financial and legal compliance and predictable TCO.

What are the marketplace implementation options with Univio?

We tailor our approach to our clients’ needs, goals and current technology architecture. We have experience implementing a range of options, including:
Mirakl
Marketplace based on the Mirakl platform

Mirakl as a dedicated marketplace engine, integrated with your existing platform (e.g. Magento, Shopify Plus, Adobe Commerce).

VTEX
Marketplace as a module of the VTEX platform

VTEX as a complete e-commerce platform with a built-in, native marketplace module.

Another solution
Marketplace as a dedicated solution

Extending your existing e-commerce with a marketplace module, without changing the entire platform.

5 steps to a marketplace platform with Univio

Whichever of the three options you choose, the implementation process rests on the same pillars.

Integration with ERP, CRM, PIM

We connect the chosen solution to your systems so that product data and orders flow without manual work.

Financial and legal compliance of the implementation

We implement the split of funds and commissions in line with regulatory requirements: Stripe Connect, Adyen for Platforms, the DAC7 directive.
