Nothing, there is no hidden fixed or variable cost besides the small margin we add on the price of your products. A lot of companies apply monthly fees or commissions based on a percentage of sales to sell on marketplaces. You will provide us your prices and we apply a minimum additional amount of margin to cover our cost. This margin is minimal for industry standards.

Definitely yes. Amazon is big but there are many other marketplaces across Europe that are interesting. For example in France we work with Darty, Fnac, Cdiscount, Rue Du Commerce, Conforama, Gosport and others which together are considerably bigger than Amazon France.
Also, if you or your partner work with Amazon only as B2B supplier, there is big additional potential for easymarketplace (B2C) because many products are only sold by external sellers (and not by Amazon directly(, which is one of the reasons why the 3rd party sales on Amazon are continuously growing every year.
