Marketplace operators

Payment processing built for marketplace operators.

You run a two-sided marketplace: sellers upload inventory, buyers purchase, you take a platform fee and pay sellers out. Stripe Connect works until it does not — seller KYB stalls, payouts fail on international sellers, the take-rate math breaks when you add volume tiers. multiflow is a purpose-built marketplace rail: KYB pipeline, escrow layer, auto-split on settlement, multi-currency payouts, and consolidated reporting for every seller on your platform.

What's costing you money right now

Three pain points
we actually solve.

01 · Pain point

Seller KYB stalls your onboarding funnel

Native Stripe Connect rejects or delays 20-30% of marketplace sellers on KYB. Your signup funnel leaks. multiflow runs a purpose-built marketplace KYB pipeline with higher approval rates and manual review for edge cases.

02 · Pain point

International seller payouts are a nightmare

US sellers get ACH, EU sellers get SEPA, rest-of-world gets wire. Native processors charge per-payout fees that eat small-dollar sellers. multiflow negotiates aggregate payout fees — small-dollar sellers stay profitable.

03 · Pain point

Take-rate tiers break at volume

You want 15% on the first $1k, 12% on the next $9k, 10% above $10k per seller per month. Stripe Connect cannot express that. Parent-level split-on-settlement supports arbitrary tier logic per seller.

Answers
to the five things you're wondering.

01 How is this different from Stripe Connect?

Connect is a solid starting rail. It breaks at scale on three axes: KYB approval rates for non-US sellers, per-payout fees on small-dollar sellers, and inflexibility on tiered take-rate logic. multiflow addresses all three as first-class features rather than workarounds.

02 Can you handle escrow / held funds?

Yes. Parent-level escrow supports holds until delivery confirmation, review period, dispute resolution, or custom triggers. Escrow releases on configurable rules per marketplace policy.

03 What about 1099-K generation?

Automatic at year-end for US sellers crossing the $20k/200-txn threshold (and the lower state-level thresholds in MA, VT, IL, MD, VA, etc.). Sellers download from their own portal; platform exports bulk CSV.

04 Can sellers have their own descriptors?

Yes — per-seller descriptor on card statements. Buyer sees "MarketplaceBrand*SellerName" or just "SellerName" depending on marketplace policy. Configurable per-seller or per-platform.

05 What is the minimum GMV to make sense?

Above $500k/mo aggregate GMV, multiflow pays for itself on payout-fee arbitrage alone. Below that, Stripe Connect is usually the right call unless KYB approval rate on your seller profile is the blocker.
