FAQ
The questions founders ask before they build.
What belongs in a marketplace MVP?
The smallest complete supply-to-demand transaction, essential trust controls, operator intervention, settlement visibility, and analytics for the launch wedge.
Marketplace Development
Do we need automated payouts at launch?
Not always. Payout operations can begin with controlled review if volume and policy allow, but the ledger and reconciliation model should exist from day one.
Marketplace Development
