Walmart launched Marketplace in 2009.Walmart's network of independent sellers is small compared to Amazon's, which counts about 2 million sellers among its ranks. Sales from <a target="_blank" href="https://sell.amazon.com/blog/amazon-stats">third-party sellers also make up a majority</a> — over 60% — of sales on Amazon's website, according to the company.By contrast, Marketplace made up 10.7% of Walmart's total e-commerce sales, according to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.insiderintelligence.com/content/how-marketplaces-amazon-ebay-walmart-compare">Insider Intelligence</a> — and an even smaller share of the company's overall sales.But Walmart is trying to build its Marketplace. In October, over half the sale items that Walmart advertised to ring in the holiday shopping season came from third-party sellers, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/10/18/walmart-beefs-up-online-marketplace-in-amazon-challenge.html">CNBC reported.</a>In August, Walmart held its first-ever summit for third-party sellers in Las Vegas to convince small businesses of the advantages of selling on its website. "Walmart has a built-in base of hundreds of millions of loyal customers, our eCommerce business is thriving and we're just getting started with Marketplace," Manish Joneja, senior vice president, Walmart Marketplace and Walmart Fulfillment Services at Walmart U.S., said <a target="_blank" href="https://corporate.walmart.com/news/2023/08/30/marketplace-makes-its-mark-news-from-our-first-ever-seller-summit">in a statement</a> on the summit.Among the new opportunities that Joneja touted for sellers: A business-to-business marketplace and Walmart Restored, which is dedicated to sellers who want to list refurbished goods on Walmart's website. Walmart also plans to expand Marketplace to Chile in early 2024, Joneja said, adding to its current presence in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.The summit also told sellers about services that Walmart offers them, according to CNBC. Sellers can send bulk quantities of products to Walmart, for instance. The retailer then packages and ships them to customers.But some sellers say that selling through Walmart isn't as smooth as working with Amazon. One seller of supplements told <a target="_blank" href="https://www.modernretail.co/retailers/we-made-like-4-sales-walmart-is-investing-in-its-third-party-marketplace-but-sellers-are-seeing-mixed-results/">trade publication Modern Retail</a> last year that it stopped selling through Walmart Marketplace after it didn't get notifications for orders placed through Walmart or adequate assistance from Walmart's support team, for instance.

How to get Facebook Marketplace and use it to buy or sell items

<ul class="summary-list"><li><keyword id="8346548" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="Adam-Jackson">Adam Jackson</keyword> has more than a decade's worth of experience building and running online <keyword id="6575455" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="marketplaces">marketplaces</keyword>.</li><li>He thinks traditional marketplaces that are owned by for-profit companies have two big, related problems — they charge outrageous fees to users and they concentrate wealth by transferring most of the value of the marketplace to the companies' owners.</li><li>Jackson's got an idea of how to solve such problems — a marketplace that's owned by its users via a cryptocurrency token and run by a non-profit foundation.</li><li>That marketplace, dubbed <keyword id="9458748" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="braintrust">Braintrust</keyword>, launched on Wednesday.</li></ul>Adam Jackson knows a thing or two about online marketplaces — and what's wrong with many of them.He's been working on marketplaces off an on for the last 16 years. During that time, he's founded four of them — in areas ranging from telemedicine to automobile parts and repair — and sold two to bigger companies. He's seen what works well and what doesn't."Having been a marketplace builder my whole life, I kind of had a front-row seat to two of the big problems that happen when you build big marketplaces," Jackson, a serial entrepreneur, told Business Insider in an interview this week.Traditional marketplaces are operated by for-profit companies that are owned by their founders and investors. That structure tends to create a disconnect between the interests of those owners and the interest of those who actually use the marketplaces to buy and sell goods and services, Jackson said.The first big problem that arises from that structure is that the marketplace operators tend to charge high and sometimes outrageous fees to their users, he said. Essentially that allows them to skim off much of the value generated by the market. Jackson pointed to <keyword id="18635" type="CITY" weightage="60" keywordseo="Amazon">Amazon</keyword>, which charges fees to sellers in its marketplaces that can add up to 50% or more of listing prices, as an "egregious example.""The fees end up creating misaligned incentives," Jackson said.<h2>Traditional marketplaces concentrate wealth</h2>The second big problem with the traditional ownership structure is that it tends to concentrate wealth, he said. For <keyword id="1042120" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Uber">Uber</keyword> drivers, most of the value of the app comes from all of the riders that use it. Likewise, consumers use Uber because they know they can generally find a driver quickly and easily through it.But when Uber went public, much of the value it realized from that event <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/uber-ipo-here-is-who-is-getting-rich-2019-4#thuan-pham-231-million-7">went to a handful of founders and investors in the company</a>, Jackson said. Meanwhile, many Uber drivers are <a href="https://alumni.georgetown.edu/news/magazine/2019/fall/uber-taking-its-drivers-ride">earning poverty wages</a> and some have to sleep in their cars, <a href="https://www.kcrw.com/news/articles/some-uber-drivers-make-so-little-they-have-to-live-in-their-cars">because they're homeless</a>, he said.Investor-owned marketplaces engender "this crazy wealth concentration," Jackson said. "This is not a socialistic argument. I just think this stuff is bad for business."Jackson has an answer to those problems. Instead of an investor owned marketplace, he's now created one that will be owned by its users via a cryptocurrency token and operated by a non-profit foundation. The new marketplace, a kind of job board for freelance tech workers dubbed Braintrust, officially launched out of stealth mode on Wednesday. He's hoping it will be just the first of many more to come.Read more <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/braintrust-startup-lets-companies-build-remote-engineering-teams-2020-6">about Braintrust and why Jackson thinks it will demonstrate a way of fixing the shortcomings of traditional marketplaces here.</a>Got a tip about tech?

<ul class="summary-list"><li>The co-founder of Twitch said he is launching a new marketplace for gaming NFTs.</li><li>Justin Kan said in a blog post that Fractal will serve as both a primary and secondary market. </li></ul>A new marketplace focused on gaming NFTs is on the way from the co-founder of Twitch, reflecting a boom in the space during what's been a blockbuster 2021 for cryptocurrencies and digital collectibles. Fractal will allow players to purchase and sell assets for games that run on the Solana blockchain, said Justin Kan, known for his work in launching <a href="https://www.twitch.tv/">Twitch</a>, a <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/what-is-twitch">livestreaming service</a> focused on gaming, entertainment, sports, and music that reaches more than 30 million users a day. "For players, this will mean they can truly own the value of their in-game work: items they own will be buyable, tradeable or sellable," Kan said <a href="https://fractal.medium.com/introducing-fractal-98a8162a0a6f">in a Medium blog post introducing Fractal</a> on Sunday. "For game companies, their in-game assets become persistent platforms on top of which other developers will be able to build experiences." Kan, who is serving as part of Fractal's founding team, said Fractal will act as a primary market, with companies ushering in their new games to players, as well as a secondary market where users can buy and sell NFTs. "We are starting with the Solana blockchain, as we see the low cost and high speed of transactions as appealing to game creators who want to have a high number of in-game assets," said Kan. He said a launch line-up would arrive "soon" but didn't specify a date.

The company has said that it is one of the first marketplaces for NFTs in India. The NFT marketplace from WazirX is being spearheaded by Sandesh B Suvarna, a Canada-based entrepreneur. Film actor Vishakha Singh has also joined the firm as an advisor. Speaking about the launch of its NFT marketplace, Nischal Shetty, founder of WazirX, said, “Both digital creators and collectors stand to benefit from the <keyword id="11047571" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="wazirx-nft-marketplace">WazirX NFT marketplace</keyword>. As of now, we are working around a certain nitty-gritty to make NFTs more lucrative for our customers.” <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What is a non-fungible token (NFT)?" comment="subhead" text="What is a non-fungible token (NFT)?">What is a non-fungible token (NFT)?</cmsannotation> A non-fungible token (NFT) is a one-of-its kind digital asset that can be in the form of art pieces, audio files, videos, programs, digital goods and even tweets. What makes NFT unique is that it is non-fungible in nature, meaning that it cannot be replaced by another identical item and its copies cannot be created after its purchase. “Like the status of cryptocurrencies and Blockchain, even the non-fungible tokens that are NFTs are not recognised under any of the regulations in India. Having said that since the nature of NFTs is different from cryptocurrencies, there does not seem to be any specific restriction on usage of NFTs,” said Rashmi Deshpande, partner at law firm Khaitan &amp; Co. “Under the given legal structure, NFTs can at the most, be treated as a digital commodity and have taxation implications as any other asset. One needs to be clear that since NFTs are not competing with fiat currency in any possible way, there is no major issue on their usage in India as of now,” Deshpande explained. Twitter founder Jack Dorsey sold his first tweet on the platform for <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/tech/news/twitter-ceo-jack-dorseys-first-tweet-is-expected-to-sell-for-2-5-million-on-sunday-this-is-why-the-nft-is-so-valuable-/articleshow/81619369.cms">$2.9 million</a> in an NFT-based transaction last month. The launch of the WazirX NFT marketplace will allow <keyword id="10910622" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="indian-creators">Indian creators</keyword> to place their digital assets for auction over the block-chain based marketplace and earn royalty. <cmsannotation type="cmsannotation" annotationid="What will be the charge for auctioning on the WazirX NFT marketplace?" comment="subhead" text="What will be the charge for auctioning on the WazirX NFT marketplace?">What will be the charge for auctioning on the WazirX NFT marketplace?</cmsannotation> WazirX has said that it will not charge its customers for creating and listing NFTs on its platform. However, a gas fee has to be paid to miners as NFT uses blockchains that allow smart contracts. A gas fee is the cost of the computational power used to verify the transaction. WazirX has added that it is working on removing this cost to make NFT minting more attractive for creators.
