Marketplace
An online marketplace is a type of eCommerce platform that allows multiple sellers to sell their products or services to consumers. In an online marketplace, the marketplace operator provides a platform where sellers can list and sell their products, and buyers can browse and purchase them. The operator typically charges a commission for each transaction and/or a fee for using the platform.
Examples of online marketplaces include Amazon, eBay, and Tmall.
