FAQ

The pricing of building a marketplace can vary quite a bit based on the project requirements. A relatively simple marketplace with core basic features could potentially be done for $3,000 - $10,000. However, costs go up for more complex, custom functionality. Really robust, complex marketplace platforms can cost $30,000 to $50,000 or more. We'd need to scope out the full requirements to provide an accurate estimate. But you can count on us being upfront about projected costs.

Absolutely. We understand that trust is key, especially when you're sharing a business idea, proprietary concept, or early-stage product vision. We're happy to sign a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) at the very beginning of our conversation, before you share any sensitive details. Your intellectual property, strategy, and data are fully protected with us, and confidentiality is something we take seriously at every step of the journey.

We don’t just set deadlines, we commit to them. From the very start, we build a clear project roadmap with achievable milestones and timelines that align with your business objectives. Our project managers use agile planning and sprint cycles to keep everything on track and adjust dynamically if priorities shift. You’ll always know what’s being worked on, what’s coming next, and whether we’re ahead or on schedule.

For sure, Roobykon has built lots of successful online marketplaces. Just to name a few - AircraftForSale, Drive lah, CareConnect, AllCourse, HomeHak, and many others across all kinds of categories. Each one has its unique story and impact. The best thing is to check out the Case Studies section on our website to get the full picture of what we've accomplished.

Once you reach out, we make it easy to get things moving. It all starts with a conversation – nothing formal, just a genuine effort to understand your goals, challenges, and expectations. From there, we’ll help shape your idea into a clear vision, suggest a high-level scope, and outline an estimated budget so we’re on the same page from the very beginning. If we’re a good fit, we’ll map out a tailored plan that includes timelines, key milestones, and the team you’ll be working with. Once we finalize the agreement, we’ll onboard you into our workflow tools, introduce your dedicated team, and get ready to kick things off.

Every project we take on is led by a dedicated Project Manager, your main point of contact and the person ensuring everything stays on track, on time, and on budget. From there, we build a cross-functional team around your specific needs, which typically includes a business analyst, a UX/UI designer, software engineers, QA specialists, and DevOps support. From day one, we ensure the right people are aligned with your goals to move efficiently from discovery to delivery. Every team member brings domain-specific expertise and is fully aligned with your business goals to ensure cohesive, high-quality delivery.

We follow a proven agile delivery framework with clearly defined phases, continuous feedback loops, and transparent communication. Our process includes structured sprint planning, weekly demos, backlog grooming, and regular retrospectives. We embed quality and security into every step, starting with requirements gathering and continuing through code reviews, automated and manual testing, documentation, and release protocols. We also enforce strict security measures such as data encryption, access control, and periodic penetration testing to safeguard your product at every level.

We believe great software happens when communication flows, feedback is fast, and priorities stay sharp. That’s why we assign a dedicated project manager or business analyst who acts as your single point of contact, keeping everything organized, on schedule, and in sync with your vision. You’ll be involved in all the key moments: planning, sprint reviews, feature demos, and roadmap check-ins. We’ll adapt to your preferred tools – whether that’s Slack, Trello, Jira, or good old-fashioned email – and make sure progress is always visible and actionable. Behind the scenes, our development process includes rigorous code reviews, testing, and QA to ensure everything we ship is polished, scalable, and secure.

Absolutely, Roobykon’s engagement in marketplace creation doesn't end at launch. We offer comprehensive support, SEO services, and maintenance packages to ensure your platform keeps running smoothly. This includes things like performance monitoring, security patching, backup management, and hosting support. We can also implement new features and enhancements through ongoing development retainers and sprint-based engagements. Our goal is to be a long-term technology partner, not just a short-term vendor.
