COMPARISON

Your own site,
or a marketplace?

Marketplaces like Trendyol and Hepsiburada gets you started — they give you visibility and ready traffic. But they take a commission on every sale and the customer belongs to them. Your own site grows you: no commission, the customer is yours, the brand is yours. The truth is you need both — and Fenikya lets you run them from a single panel.

THE MATHS OF COMMISSION

On a ₺1,000 sale, how much stays with you?

Same product, same price — the only difference is where the sale happens. The example below is illustrative; real rates vary by category and by your agreement.

On a marketplace

₺1,000 sale

Sale amount₺1.000
Marketplace commission (e.g. 18%)− ₺180
Service / transaction fees (e.g.)− ₺40
What you keep (approx.)₺780
On your own site (Fenikya)

₺1,000 sale

Sale amount₺1.000
Platform / sales commission₺0
Fixed monthly plan feeFixed
What you keep (approx.)₺1.000

Note: in both cases the bank/payment provider fee (typically ~2–3%) applies separately. Fenikya takes no commission on sales; there is only a fixed monthly plan fee — so the more you sell, the bigger the advantage grows.

SIDE BY SIDE

Commission isn't the only difference

Profit matters wherever the sale happens — but over the long run, who controls your brand and your customer relationship matters far more.

Criterion Marketplace Your own site (Fenikya)
Sales commission A cut of every sale (varies by category) 0% platform commission
Customer data Belongs to the marketplace — limited ability to reach them again Yours — sell to them again by email and SMS
Brand & storefront A standard listing — on the same page as competitors Your own design, your own domain
Price competition Pressure to undercut on price to win the buy box on the same product You set the price and the campaign
Campaigns & loyalty Subject to the marketplace's rules Coupons, points, popups — entirely yours
Ready traffic Millions of visitors already there You build your own traffic with SEO and advertising
Setup Fast store setup In minutes, without writing code

YOU DON'T HAVE TO CHOOSE

Your own site and the marketplaces — from one panel

Fenikya is not anti-marketplace. The smart route is to use both: manage orders from the marketplace and from your own site in the same place.

  • Trendyol, Hepsiburada, N11 and Çiçeksepeti sync
  • A single stock pool — automatically current on every channel
  • All orders on one screen, one shipping flow
  • Get found on the marketplace, turn them into loyal customers on your own site

A marketplace gets you started,
your own site grows you.

Instead of paying commission on every sale, put that margin into growing your brand. Win the customer once and sell to them again and again.
