Monetize every interaction.
Automate administrative management.
Whether your model is based on transactional commissions, seller subscriptions, or service fees, Origami Marketplace gives you the flexibility to build a profitable business model and the infrastructure to bill in full compliance.
Monetize every transaction intelligently.
Your business model is unique. Your commission engine must be too. Don’t limit yourself to a simple global percentage.
- Granular commissions: manage your margins down to the millimeter. Apply different rates according to categories (e.g. 5% on High-Tech, 15% on Fashion), by specific product, or even according to the shipping offer.
- Shipping fee commissions: decide if you wish to take a commission only on the product or also on shipping costs.
- Hybrid models: mix approaches. Combine a variable % with fixed fees per transaction (e.g. €0.50 + 10%) to secure your revenue even on small baskets.
- Tiered commissions (price brackets): apply a staggered % according to the order amount to optimize your revenue while preserving seller margin on large volumes.
- Buyer fees: add management fees on the customer side (on the Vinted model) on top of the seller commission to maximize the profitability of each order.
- Seller plans (subscriptions): create membership levels (Silver, Gold, Platinum) and charge for access to your marketplace via a recurring subscription (monthly, quarterly, or annual).
Stay compliant, without managing your sellers' invoicing.
- Self-billing mandate: simplify everyone’s life. Activate the mandate to automatically generate invoices in the name and on behalf of your sellers. Result: the customer receives a perfect invoice, the seller has nothing to do, and you guarantee the accounting uniformity of your platform.
- Tax management (VAT): the system automatically applies the correct VAT rate on products and transport based on the seller’s profile (Pro/Private individual) and their location.
- Autonomous invoicing: prefer to leave control? Your sellers can upload their own PDF invoices on each order to make them accessible to customers.
Automatically split payments between sellers, commissions, and VAT.
Trust relies on the speed and accuracy of payments.
- Instant split payment: as soon as payment is collected, funds are automatically broken down: a share for the seller, a share for your commission. Flows are reconciled in real-time.
- Automated pay-outs: no more manual transfers. At each cycle closure (e.g. D+15 or month-end), Origami automatically triggers the transfer to the seller’s bank account.
- Financial transparency: via their dashboard, each seller tracks exactly what they have earned, the amount of commissions deducted, and the date of their next transfer.
Frequently asked questions
How do you handle self-billing invoices on behalf of thousands of sellers?
By automating the issuing of invoices in the name and on behalf of each seller. Origami Marketplace generates these invoices automatically, applies VAT based on each seller’s profile (business or individual) and location, and lets each seller define its own numbering (prefix, suffix, number of digits). Each seller signs the billing mandate with the operator.
Is it better to charge a commission to sellers or fees to buyers?
Invoicing should no longer be an administrative bottleneck.
VAT, self-billing mandate, payment split: you are covered, automated, and compliant. Let’s see together how to structure your financial flows.
