GCC Peer-to-Peer Marketplace MVP website

Hi,

We're looking for an experienced developer to help us build the first version (MVP) of a new peer-to-peer marketplace targeting Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC.

The platform will allow individuals to buy and sell pre-owned items, with a strong focus on making the process simple, secure and convenient.

What we're looking to build:

- User registration, login and profiles
- Identity verification integration
- Simple product listings with photos, descriptions and prices
- Product browsing, search and filters
- Secure checkout with an integrated escrow payment provider
- Integration with third-party delivery partners, including shipment booking and tracking
- Order management, notifications and transaction status updates
- Buyer/seller ratings and reviews
- Basic admin dashboard to manage users, listings and transactions
- Mobile-friendly, responsive design

What we're looking for:

Someone who has experience building marketplaces or e-commerce platforms, ideally with third-party API integrations (payments, logistics, identity verification, etc.).

We're considering Bubble for the MVP but are open to other technologies if there's a good reason to use them.

We're also exploring the possibility of developing a mobile application (iOS and Android), so we'd be interested in hearing from developers who could potentially support both.

When applying, please share:

1. Examples of similar platforms you've built
2. Your recommended technology and why
3. An estimated cost and development timeline
4. Whether you could also develop a mobile app
5. Any questions or suggestions you have about the project

We're looking for someone reliable who can help us get a working MVP launched, with the potential for ongoing development as the platform grows.

Thanks!
