Get started today to unlock your business’s revenue potential

Pre-stocked with millions of products, drop-shipped from 3rd party retailers.

As standard, your store is populated with millions of products, where the orders and shipping are all managed by Velocity Marketplaces. We create the product content and images, but also manage drop-shipping, fulfilment and any customer service for all orders.

You can also add your own products to your Marketplace so this is perfect if you only have a few items where it is not cost effective to have a whole store for them. Having millions of products increases visitors to your website enabling more people to see your own products.

The “No-Code” Marketplace

No developers are needed with this no-code solution. No need for costly integration into your front and backend systems as the Velocity all-in-one system sits on its own secure cloud server.

To develop your OWN Marketplace requires millions of pounds in investment, technical know-how and a whole new department would need to be created within your organisation.  It also takes years to develop before you sell 1 product. By choosing Velocity Marketplaces you eliminate all this risk and lost time and can start building a multi-million pound business today.

Total control, total simplicity​

Getting started with Velocity Marketplaces is easy. We will white label your Marketplace in your branding, connect it to your chosen URL and you’re ready to go! 

Perfect for Charities​

The cost-of-living crisis has made it even harder for charities to find regular donors and to keep those they already have. Acquisition costs are increasing, as are the day to day costs of running a charity.  Churn within regular donors subscriptions costs money to manage and there is a need for a method of appealing to a wider sociodemographic group of donors.

Launching a Velocity Marketplace for your charity addresses many of these issues: Offering mainstream, new products across all categories allows existing supporters AND people who would not normally donate to your charity the opportunity to buy the products they want, when they want them in the knowledge that the profit from the sale directly benefits your charity.

This creates a new win-win scenario for the customer and the charity across a much wider and diverse product assortment than can ever be achieved through traditional charity shops. Put simply, if one of your supporters wants to buy a pair of Levi jeans, why not buy them from your Marketplace at the same price as elsewhere and know that in doing so, they will be indirectly donating to you via Velocity.
