I've built 10+ production marketplaces on Sharetribe Flex — from football boots marketplaces with 20,000+ users to NIL athlete platforms and dancewear marketplaces. Custom React/Next.js frontends, Stripe Connect payments, real-time messaging, and scalable architecture.

On-Time Delivery
Fully decoupled React/Next.js frontend with SSR for SEO-critical listing pages and complete design freedom.
Vendor onboarding, split payments, automatic payouts, escrow flows, and milestone-based transaction logic.
Socket.io powered in-transaction chat, real-time notifications, and role-based conversation access.
Custom search with location-based results, category filters, price ranges, availability calendars, and faceted filtering.
GoShippo and EasyPost webhook integrations for automated label generation and shipment tracking.
Custom analytics dashboards, user management, listing moderation, and transaction oversight tools.
With Sharetribe Flex's headless API, I can build any marketplace type: rental platforms, service marketplaces, product marketplaces, or hybrid models. Custom frontends in React/Next.js, multi-currency payments via Stripe Connect, real-time messaging, availability calendars, custom admin dashboards, GoShippo/EasyPost shipping integrations, and more.
A focused MVP — listing creation, search, profiles, Stripe payments, and messaging — typically takes 8–12 weeks. Complex features like multi-currency, shipping webhooks, milestone transaction flows, or custom availability calendars add 3–5 weeks. I deliver a detailed timeline in the written proposal after our discovery call.
I work with both — I can extend the default Web Template or build a fully custom React/Next.js frontend from scratch. For most production projects, a custom frontend is the better long-term choice: it gives you full SEO control, cleaner codebase, and no template constraints as your marketplace grows.
Yes. I've helped clients migrate from Sharetribe Classic to Flex — exporting users, listings, and transaction history, rebuilding the frontend, and managing the cutover. Flex's API-first approach gives you far more flexibility than Classic's template-based system.
At launch I provide: full codebase in a private repository, deployment configuration on Vercel/AWS, clear documentation covering the architecture and any non-obvious decisions, and a walkthrough call for your team. Optional ongoing support retainers are available post-launch.
