What is a Peer-to-Peer Marketplace?

It’s important to start by defining what a P2P marketplace is (and isn’t!). At a high level, a peer-to-peer marketplace is a platform that connects people who need a product or service with people selling or renting these products or services. 

The role of the marketplace platform is to connect supply with demand while handling payments. P2P marketplaces don’t need to own or provide any of the products or services offered on their platforms. This makes it relatively inexpensive to start a marketplace business. 

The most famous examples of peer-to-peer marketplaces include Airbnb, Etsy, and Uber. Almost any product or service can be sold through a P2P platform.
