Do you already know OnBuy? It is a marketplace that can help you reach many new customers with your products.
OnBuy was launched in the United Kingdom almost 5 years ago, in November 2016, and it is now the 4th largest marketplace in the UK.
In fact, since its launch, OnBuy has seen over 600% year-on-year growth for the past three years in a row, so much so that over 8 million buyers have already bought from merchants who use this platform.
At this point you may think: “Okay, the numbers and the growth sound amazing, but why should I sell on OnBuy?”
We decided to answer this question with the 10 best reasons to show you that there is a very convenient alternative to the same old Amazon and eBay.
Are you ready? Let’s get started!
To start selling your products on OnBuy you just need to follow these 4 simple steps:
Easy, right? Let’s move on to the second reason!
Are you tired of having to leave 15% of your earnings to Amazon or 10% to Ebay?
OnBuy is a platform with competitive and transparent fees: between 5% and 9% depending on the category of the product sold.
Moreover, unlike Amazon, OnBuy doesn’t compete with your products by selling its own items: on this marketplace the only competition you’ll have to win is that of other merchants like you, who are starting on par, with the same tools.
On OnBuy you can sell everything: books, clothing, toys, auto parts, cosmetics or musical instruments.
There are already more than 35 million items for sale on OnBuy and thousands of sellers who are taking advantage of the great potential of this platform: what are you waiting for?
A marketplace must be graphically attractive and welcoming to all visitors who come to the website looking for products.
It must also be easy to navigate (even from your mobile) with a home page that does not confuse potential buyers but, instead, takes them by the hand and accompanies them within the site to discover product.
As you can see from this image, OnBuy presents itself to its visitors with an attractive design and a clear layout!

Not only will you get paid immediately, as we touched on above, but every transaction will take place in a secure way, while being monitored for fraud, phishing and identity theft. In addition, you can take advantage of PayPal Seller Protection, which will help you not to lose the amount received if, for example, products do not arrive at their destination.
