About this Service
A marketplace is not an online store with more sellers. It's two products that have to be designed against each other.
The buyer side needs everything to look effortless: search that understands a vague query, listings that answer the question before it's asked, enough signal to trust a stranger with money. The seller side needs the opposite — speed, bulk actions, and a listing flow that doesn't take twenty minutes for item number forty.
Design one side well and the other collapses. Beautiful buyer experience with a painful seller flow means an empty catalogue.
Efficient seller tools with a confusing buyer path means listings nobody converts on. And behind both, someone on your team has to resolve a dispute, suspend a fraudulent account and check why yesterday's GMV dropped — usually in an admin panel that was designed last and fastest.
In four weeks you get all three surfaces designed as one product: buyer, seller and operator, built from the same system, with the same vocabulary, and specified so your developers can build without guessing.
What we design:
— Seller onboarding, verification and listing creation, including bulk and repeat flows
— Seller dashboard: inventory, orders, payouts, performance
— Buyer discovery: homepage, category browse, search, filters, sorting, empty and zero-result states
— Listing and product pages, with the trust signals that decide the transaction
— Cart, checkout, payment and order tracking
— Reviews, ratings, messaging and dispute flows
— Admin and operations console: moderation, user management, fraud flags, transaction oversight, analytics
— Responsive web and mobile app screens where the model requires both
You get: full UX flows, wireframes, high-fidelity UI in Figma, a component library, all interaction states, and a developer-ready handoff.
Typical engagements: multi-vendor marketplace design, B2B marketplace and procurement platforms, C2C resale and pre-owned marketplaces, rental and booking platforms, auction and bidding systems, service marketplaces, classified listings with large catalogues, real estate and automotive platforms, e-commerce platform redesign.
Work runs as part of U1CORE — design and engineering in one team, so what gets approved is what gets shipped. Platforms in this portfolio have processed $720M+ in production payments — classified marketplaces with millions of listings, trading exchanges, auction systems and B2B commerce.
