About this project

A retailer opening its site to third-party sellers has to solve problems a normal online shop never faces: split baskets, separate dispatches, seller payouts and returns across many independent businesses.

The platform gives buyers one basket and sellers their own workspace. Payments are split at checkout, and the operations team gets a single view of every order, dispatch and payout.

  • Let independent sellers self-onboard in under a day
  • Keep product pages fast at peak traffic
  • Automate seller payouts and commission handling

  • Next.js storefront with search and faceted browsing
