I have an idea of making a “marketplace” type of thing for suppliers and retail businesses.
The plan is to connect suppliers with small/medium sized eCommerce stores which can help each party with drop-shipping and
Suppliers can add products on to the Bubble app / Export and Import products from their shop to the Bubble app.
Users can import these products from the Bubble app to their Shopify/WordPress shops.
Information about orders from Shopify/Wordpress store is displayed in the app, and payment goes directly to the supplier.
The supplier then sends out the product to customers warehouse, or directly to their customers.
I understand I’d have to make a plugin for Shopify/WordPress through bubble for this in order for customers to import products from the Bubble app.
Taking considerations comparing the work vs budget, I have put out 3 options. Could you tell me the easiest option you could work with and perhaps how many hours you would spend developing the option?
I have a couple of Bubble developers interested in this, would you mind giving me your references from apps you have built on bubble earlier?
Dropshipping APP
Option 1: User to user interaction

Option 3: User to user and User to Amazon interaction

- User 2 imports product to Shopify website
- User 2 can see a copy of their orders in Shopify
- user 2 can complete orders in app
Overview
- User 1 can see order history (How many orders have been requested fulfilled through Logima App)
- User 2 can see order history (From their Shopify store on Logima App)
Direct messaging
- Users can send messages in real time to each other
- Users can manage inbox such as delete, compose a message and block messages.
User profile
- User can upload profile picture
- User can contact other users
- User can have profile text/bio
- User rights
- User can manually register account
- User can login to their Shopify account
- User can login to Linkedin account
Payment
2,7% of total order value is paid to Logima, rest goes to supplier
I think perhaps a User to User interaction like Airbnb and Upwork is the best solution, but I am not sure about the easiest option.
Could you add/edit/change any ideas to this and give me a proposal?
