A: Hi 113457784789917036209, So, I think you are talking about one of the marketplaces that I built. So, basically with the boilerplate you can build any marketplace you would like. The boilerplate helps with all the basics that you will always need to build when building a marketplace, and then you basically just go from there and take your marketplace in any direction you would like.
Thanks for your reply! I appreciate the overview, but I’m still a bit confused. My question is specifically about the different ways to monetize a marketplace? Is it just product? Rentals? Service? My marketplace cost 50k and yours is 59 bucks I still can’t obtain insurance.
Usually the main way is via Stripe Connect. So you add a "marketplace fee" for every transaction. But you could also add other kinds of fees. Like maybe a "featured listing" fee, where that kind of listing would get a green border around it , making it more visible.
hi again 113457784789917036209, I checked out your marketplace - cool idea! I can see you are on the Sharetribe platform. So, the difference is that you are a bit locked in as it will be more difficult for you to make specific changes. Whereas using my boilerplate you will have more flexibility. Check my YouTube where I have some videos about the topic:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPF65h9uUeA
Q: user license
Does a 3-user license mean I can build three marketplaces, or that three people can build multiple marketplaces?
A: Hi Dlee254, Yes, the boilerplate supports multi-vendor functionality out of the box. That means service providers can sign up, create listings, and offer their services. And buyers can browse, contact, and book or buy. You will still need to configure it to match your specific use case, but the core flows are all there.
As for ratings and reviews, that is not included by default, since the...
Yes, you can. Check out some of the examples I have built using the boilerplate: Nordic Mugs - https://nordicmugs.com/en/ My Spare Desk - https://www.mysparedesk.com/ (did not manage to get people to use it - but everything works tech wise) You Are My Star - https://www.youaremystar.com/
Thank you for the prompt reply. Just to clarify, can we allow different service provider to submit their listing or offering? And the service purchaser can submit their feedback or rate their service experiences? Also, what does the term "user license" mean in each tier? Can you explain how it works?
Q: Pre sale question
I need a market-lace where customers can search for service by location, then set the results to nearest first or by customer rating, then choose a service and book it. For the service provider they would need there own landing page and list of services - is yaour app able to do this?
And on your YouTube channel it says you’ve left this project?
A: Hi, Yes, that is possible to build using the boilerplate. I believe you are talking about the "My Spare Desk" marketplace I built. Yes, that marketplace is built using the Speed Build Marketplace boilerplate. So, everything you see there is possible. However, you will still have to add the filters yourself. So, see the boilerplate as a starting point, and then take your marketplace idea in...
A: Hi, Basically means that you would start by adding details like the appName, appDescription and the domainName in the config.ts . And then you would go to the seo.tsx in the /libs folder and adjust that one as well to fit your marketplace. And once you have done that you can then import that one (import { getSEOTags } from "@/libs/seo";) on all your pages and that makes it a bit faster to add...

Apr 24, 2025A: Hi Ray2023,
The latter.
3-user licenses means 3 Github accesses. And these 3 Github users can build multiple marketplaces.

Q: Can you go a bit into details on what you mean by SEO optimized?
Looks like an exciting product. Considering a purchase, but would be great to hear a bit more about what "SEO optimized" means?
