Possibilities
A custom marketplace is usually estimated to require six months of development and a budget that would kill the idea in a meeting. But those six months aren't spent on the storefront—they're spent on the framework: languages, roles, permissions, storage, secure file sharing, chat, payments, and an admin panel. This framework is already written and working. All that remains is to fill it with your product—and that takes just one or two days.
No illusions
What does "marketplace in two days" mean?
Let's start with an honest distinction—it's also the main argument. Ozon isn't just a website: it's warehouses, couriers, pickup points, logistics, and a thousand support staff. You can't replicate that in two days, and no one else will.
But if you look at the software component of any marketplace, it turns out that 80% is the same infrastructure, which everyone writes anew:
| What every marketplace needs | Deadlines for development from scratch | In ENG |
|---|---|---|
| Catalog with nesting and cards | 3-5 weeks | ready |
| Registration, login, roles, rights | 2-4 weeks | ready |
| Admin panel for content managers | 4–8 weeks | ready |
| File storage and secure delivery | 2-3 weeks | ready |
| Video with transcoding | 3-6 weeks | ready |
| Chat with the buyer and notifications | 3-5 weeks | ready |
| Multilingualism and SEO | 4–8 weeks | ready |
| Audit of employee actions | 1–2 weeks | ready |
| Your product, your texts, your prices | — | 1–2 days |
Scenarios
Three models that can be assembled from just one brick
Any catalog block can be transformed into a store with a switch: its pages become products with prices and currencies. This gives rise to completely different businesses.
Product showcase
Categories, subcategories, and cards with photos, videos, specifications, and prices. The buyer chats directly from the card. Ozon/Wildberries model
Digital goods
Keys, licenses, access. The wholesaler purchases a batch of codes, and the end customer activates theirs. Freezing and activation tracking are built-in. Plati.ru model / Steam keys
Paid content
Courses, blueprints, firmware, databases. The access level for a section determines who sees and downloads. Boosty model / private club
Digital products are where things usually break down.
Selling keys and licenses seems simple until you face the following questions: how to distribute a batch to a wholesaler, how to prevent a code from being activated twice, how to freeze a stolen batch, and how to link a license to a device. The platform already addresses these issues:
- Wholesale lots. The code is issued to the wholesaler, marked with the subscription type, and is valid until activated.
- One-time activation. Who activated it and when is recorded. The same code won't work again.
- Freezing. A batch is blocked with one flag if a dispute arises with a wholesaler.
- Hardware binding. The license remembers the device ID and the addresses it was used from.
- Terms. Trial period, one year, two years, or unlimited—with automatic usage tracking.

Money
Payment without platform commission
The main cost on someone else's marketplace isn't the subscription fee, but the commission on each sale. On your own platform, there's simply no commission.
| Someone else's marketplace | Own site at ENGI | |
|---|---|---|
| Commission | usually 15–25% of turnover | 0% |
| Client | belongs to the site | yours, with contacts and history |
| Card | site template | any layout, video, files |
| Rules | change without you | yours |
| Blocking | possible at any time | excluded |
| Competitors' prices | next to your product | there are none |
Payment details are configured in sets and displayed to the buyer in their preferred format: cryptocurrency (e.g., USDT on the BEP-20 network), bank transfer (IBAN / SWIFT), or ERIP with step-by-step instructions. For cross-border trade, this is often more convenient than card acquiring: it doesn't depend on whether the payment gateway works with your country.
Integration
Integrate into an existing business without breaking anything
The most common fear is: "We already have a website and 1C, we don't need to redo everything." And there's no need. The platform is installed alongside and takes care of what's currently missing.
The site remains
The existing website continues to operate. The new site resides on a subdomain or a separate domain and links to it.
The accounting remains
Exchange with the accounting system is standard JSON over HTTPS. Product lists and prices are downloaded, and orders are loaded.
People remain
Managers receive roles and permissions. There's nothing to learn: a section tree and a text field.
An order in which you risk nothing
- One direction Take one product group or one digital product - not the entire range.
- Parallel Operations: The platform has been operating alongside current channels for two weeks. Compare based on numbers, not perceptions.
- Expansion The rest of the assortment is created by copying the existing structure.
- Transferring traffic Only when we are sure that it works.
Mobility
Nothing needs to be installed - no one
Not for the buyer, not for the seller, not for the administrator. Everything lives in the browser: Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, the tablet in the sales area, the storekeeper's phone.
- The buyer shouldn't have to install the app just to make a purchase—and it's at this step that most people get lost.
- The seller does not have to wait for moderation in app stores for each update.
- You don't need to maintain two development teams for two mobile platforms.
- All an employee needs is a link and a login: the new manager starts working in five minutes, without a visit from the system administrator.
You can manage the platform from anywhere and at any time: add a product to a taxi from your phone, adjust a price while on vacation, or respond to a client at night. The site is open 24/7 via HTTPS, without a VPN or public IP address.

Speed
An idea - and in five minutes it's on the website
This is something no other marketplace or outsourced CMS offers. The usual cycle of "invented the idea → wrote the task → the contractor estimated → completed in three weeks → not what I wanted" is simply absent here.
| Task | As usual | Here |
|---|---|---|
| Add a catalog section | developer task, release | 1 minute , "+ Block" button |
| Change the order of sections in the menu | editing code or config | 5 seconds , drag and drop |
| Hide product from the website | delete and then restore | 1 click , the page remains as a link |
| Launch a weekend promotion | approval, layout | 10 minutes , page with any HTML |
| Translate everything into 14 languages | translation agency, weeks | 1 button , the layout is saved |
| Close the dealer section | development of a personal account | 1 drop-down list , access level |
| Issue the employee a license | task for the admin | 30 seconds , ticks M1–M8 |
Modernization without fear
Updating the platform requires a single command on the server: the code is pulled in, the database schema is cleaned up, and the container is rebuilt. The change history is stored in the version control system, so rolling back to a previous version also requires a single command. No more "we updated and everything crashed, and there's no way to go back."
And since you own the source code, any customization for your niche is a task for the developer, not a matter of negotiating with the platform about whether they'll add the field you need to the product page. They won't.
Control
Command, Rights, and Control
The site no longer depends on one person who “knows everything.”
- Roles and specific permissions M1–M8. A category content manager edits only their own cards. A manager edits everything. File and video download permissions are granted separately.
- Audit. Who created, modified, and deleted the file—including the name, email, and role at the time of the action. Even if the employee left a year ago.
- Internal company correspondence. The administrator monitors managers' conversations with clients, including resolving disputes and training new employees using real-life examples.
- Your customer base is yours. Email addresses, purchase history, and conversations are all in your database, not in someone else's platform's account.


Plan
Two days by the hour
Not a figure of speech, but a real sequence. Provided you already have the product text and photos.
- Day one
- Deployment Server, domain, certificates, database, storage - the installation script runs automatically.
- Catalog structure Sections and subsections, the block is marked as a store.
- First items: Cards with descriptions, photos, prices, and currencies. A template is developed, and then further development follows.
- Access levels What an anonymous user sees, what a registered user sees, and what a wholesaler sees.
- Payment details for Crypto, bank, ERIP – with instructions for the buyer.
- Day two
- Mass filling The rest of the assortment follows a proven template.
- Multilingualism The catalog is expanded into 14 languages, and titles and meta tags are checked.
- Team Accounts for managers, roles, rights, language zones.
- Chat and mail Online channel with the buyer, registration letters and notifications.
- Launch: Phone verification, SEO markup, sitemap – and the site is open.

Where to start
The fastest way to understand whether a platform is right for you is to see it in action on your product rather than reading further. Pick one area and create a dozen cards: this will take an evening and answer all your questions better than any presentation.
