About Ecommerce & Retail
Commerce is the oldest trade in the paper, and this section keeps the record of its newest entries. Here sit the products and businesses that sell things: storefront software, supply chains, trading floors for other people's goods, and the shops that still have a door and a till. Each launch is filed once, in the week it arrives, and it stays on the page.
This page lists everything in Ecommerce & Retail and its four subcategories, with filters to narrow the columns. Listings run newest first by default. Readers may sort by community votes instead, and votes can never be bought. A founder chooses one main category at submission, included free, so a product found here is here because its maker says selling is the business.

Ecommerce & Retail: questions answered
- What belongs in Ecommerce & Retail?
- Products and businesses whose main purpose is selling or enabling sales: tools for building a store, supplier and fulfilment services, marketplaces that host many sellers, and physical or hybrid retail shops. If selling is incidental to what you make, another category will suit better.
- How do I choose between the subcategories?
- Ask who does the selling. Platforms serve a merchant running their own store, suppliers serve a merchant who needs stock, marketplaces host many sellers under one roof, and retail shops sell directly to customers, often with a physical presence.
- How do I get listed in this category?
- Go to /submit and paste your website address. An AI drafts the profile from that site, and you check and edit every field before anything goes live. A paid launch costs $5; a free listing joins a queue of about 6-8 weeks.
- Can a listing appear in more than one category?
- Every listing has exactly one main category, chosen at submission and included free. A paid upgrade adds extra categories for $5 in case your product straddles two fields, such as a marketplace that also supplies stock.
- How are listings ordered on this page?
- Newest first by default, so recent launches sit at the top of the column. Visitors can switch to sorting by community votes. Votes can never be bought, so the ranking reflects what readers chose to back, not what a founder paid for.
