Scope
What this service covers.
A B2B marketplace is really two products sharing a database, buyers searching a catalogue and suppliers managing inventory, orders and payouts, and it has to keep both sides fast while all of it grows at the same time. That balancing act is where most marketplace builds quietly fall over.
Supplier onboarding and trust
Verification, catalogue upload and the trust signals that let buyers transact with suppliers they do not yet know.
Catalogue and search at scale
Search, filtering and a data model that stay responsive as SKUs and suppliers grow into the hundreds of thousands.
Orders and fulfilment
Order management across both sides, with the states, notifications and edge cases real B2B ordering needs.
Payments and payouts
Split payments, escrow and supplier payouts wired through Stripe or your provider, reconciled to the ledger.
B2B pricing rules
Tiered and negotiated pricing, minimum orders, RFQ and net terms, the logic a consumer marketplace never has to handle.

Common questions
Planning the work.
01How do you keep the marketplace fast as it grows?+
The architecture is set for it early: indexed and, where needed, pre-aggregated catalogue queries, queue-backed background jobs for anything slow, and a data model chosen so buyer and supplier volume can grow in parallel without degrading.
02Can you handle B2B-specific pricing and terms?+
Yes. Tiered pricing, negotiated rates, minimum order quantities, RFQ flows and net payment terms are core B2B requirements we build in, not add-ons.
03Do you build supplier payouts and split payments?+
Yes. We implement split payments, escrow where it is needed and scheduled supplier payouts through Stripe or your payment provider, reconciled against orders.
