Comprehensive solution for sellers and professional buyers to connect and grow their business globally

An online B2B marketplace is where both buyers and sellers can engage in digital commerce. Like popular B2C marketplaces – Amazon, eBay, and Etsy, a B2B marketplace connects multiple buyers with different manufacturers, suppliers, wholesalers, and retailers via a single portal.

Comprehensive solution for sellers and professional buyers to connect and grow their business globally

An online B2B marketplace is where both buyers and sellers can engage in digital commerce. Like popular B2C marketplaces – Amazon, eBay, and Etsy, a B2B marketplace connects multiple buyers with different manufacturers, suppliers, wholesalers, and retailers via a single portal.

Benefits of a B2B Marketplace

For vendors:

• Access to a larger pool of buyers and customers.
• Bigger order values and higher conversion rates
• Faster order fulfilment with cloud-based e-commerce systems
• Stay ahead of the competition
• Sell direct to consumers

This lets businesses tap into new customer segments and global markets. Also, marketplaces can be great to test out new products and gauge demand.

For buyers:

• Review up-to-date product information
• Search quickly
• Review and edit order quotes, visual meeting recaps and additional product suggestions
• Create official or proposed orders
• View order status

For buyers a marketplace compares multiple offers and prices from different vendors all in a single place. Giving customers the power to choose the best product, price, and service promotes more buyers to visit the marketplace.

B2B Marketplace is different from a B2C Marketplace

A B2B marketplace differs from B2C marketplace. It requires specific B2B and multi-vendor marketplace features to resolve situations like:

• Bulk ordering
• Editing purchase orders online
• Quantity discounts
• Quote, RFP and negotiation workflows when ordering
• Custom pricing depending on customer type
• Accept various B2B payment types and terms
