Experience

Seller Center

A marketplace platform where sellers can create and update products, process their orders, and see financial details.

Rocket Ventures launched the platform in August 2013 following a market analysis that determined that existing tools did not meet the requirements for scaling its marketplace platform. The idea was to build an in-house tool and connect it to internal Rocket IT, including Alice & Bob and OMS, to support their further scaling and growth.

The three main business metrics include:
• Enlarging assortment
• Reducing risk management
• Creating additional revenue streams
