Marketplace

Turn your store into a marketplace

Invite other sellers to list their products in your store, earn a commission on every sale, and pay them out automatically — Amazon, Etsy, or hybrid style. And when a seller is ready, they can grow into their own store on StoreOnCloud.

How it grows

Your sellers become your next customers

Most marketplace software just bolts a marketplace onto a store you already own. StoreOnCloud turns every seller into a potential store owner — a growth loop built into the platform.

Step 1

Invite your sellers

Send invitations, or open a public “apply to sell” page and approve applications. Each seller signs in to StoreOnCloud and manages only their own products, orders, and payouts — never anyone else’s.

Step 2

They sell, you earn

Every order is split automatically at checkout. You take a commission you set; each seller receives their share, paid to their own account — money you never have to touch or hold.

Step 3

Sellers grow their own store

Any seller can graduate to running their own StoreOnCloud store — and open their own marketplace in turn. Your sellers become your next customers: a growth loop no bolt-on marketplace can offer.

Your marketplace, your rules

Etsy-style, Amazon-style, or both

Pick how listings work — one seller per product, many sellers competing for the sale, or a mix. It’s just a setting, so you can switch anytime with no risky migration.

Etsy-style

Own Catalog

One seller per product. Every listing is unique to its seller — ideal for handmade, vintage, or one-of-a-kind goods.

Amazon-style

Marketplace

Many sellers can offer the same product and compete for the sale. The best offer wins the “buy box,” and shoppers can choose another seller.

Best of both

Hybrid

A mix, decided per product — a brand owns its own products while resellers compete on others. Run Etsy- and Amazon-style side by side.

How sellers get paid

Automatic, accurate, and hands-off

Commissions, escrow, payouts, and refunds are handled for you — running on your own Stripe account, so the money never touches StoreOnCloud.

Commissions, set by you

Choose a default commission, with per-seller and per-product overrides. It’s deducted automatically on every sale.

Escrow protects everyone

A seller’s earnings are held until the return window passes, then released automatically — protecting you and your buyers against refunds.

Automatic seller payouts

Payouts run on your own Stripe account. Funds never touch StoreOnCloud — sellers are paid directly to their own bank.

Refunds & disputes handled

A refund reverses exactly the right seller’s share — even a payout that already went out. Chargebacks are handled automatically.

Built for compliance

Tax and trust, built in

Running a marketplace comes with responsibilities. The tools to meet them are included — and off until you need them.

  • Seller identity checks (KYC) — hold payouts until a seller is verified
  • Marketplace-facilitator sales tax, recorded and withheld correctly
  • 1099-K (US) and DAC7 (EU) seller-income reporting, with your thresholds
  • Listing moderation — screen new listings before they go live
  • Fair suspension & appeals workflow, with reasons and notice periods

Reports are generated for you to file. Seller identity and payouts run on Stripe’s regulated rails.

Why StoreOnCloud

A native marketplace, not an add-on

Marketplace suites bolt onto a storefront you already run. Here, the marketplace is one native part of the platform that already powers your store, checkout, tax, and payments.

One platform, not a bolt-on

Your storefront, checkout, tax, payments, admin, and marketplace are already one system. There’s nothing to integrate — it’s a switch you flip.

Your data and money, isolated

Every store has its own database, its own Stripe account, and its own financial ledger — a cleaner security and compliance story than a shared platform.

Provably correct payouts

Each order is attributed to the right seller at the moment of purchase and paid exactly once — backed by a double-entry ledger and exact-cent math.

The seller growth loop

Sellers can graduate into running their own store and marketplace on the same platform — an acquisition flywheel a pure marketplace vendor can’t offer.
