In the world of distribution, Shopify, Amazon, Walmart, and eBay are called online marketplaces. These stores facilitate both the buyer and the seller in many ways. An online marketplace is just like an e-commerce website but the difference is that your product can be listed globally. Typically the operator of the marketplace doesn’t own any inventory but relies on drop shipments to the end customer.
