GCC Peer-to-Peer Marketplace MVP

Hi,

We're looking for an experienced mobile app developer or small development team to help us build an MVP for a new peer-to-peer marketplace targeting Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC.

The idea is to create a simple, secure and easy-to-use app where individuals can buy and sell pre-owned items, with payments and delivery managed directly through the platform.

Key features we're looking for:

- User registration, login and profiles
- Identity verification integration
- Easy product listings with photos, descriptions and prices
- Product browsing, search and filters
- Secure checkout with an integrated escrow payment provider
- Third-party delivery integration for shipment booking and tracking
- Order management and transaction updates
- Push notifications
- Buyer/seller ratings and reviews
- Basic admin dashboard

What we're looking for:

Ideally, someone who has built marketplace or e-commerce apps before and has experience integrating third-party APIs, particularly for payments and logistics.

We're open to Flutter, React Native or other suitable technologies, provided the solution works well on both iOS and Android and can be expanded as the business grows.

We're also exploring the possibility of developing a website, so we'd be interested in hearing from developers who could potentially support both.

When applying, please share:

1. Examples of similar apps you've developed
2. Your recommended technology and why
3. An estimated cost and development timeline
4. Whether your quotation includes the backend and admin dashboard
5. Whether you could also develop a website
6. Any suggestions or questions you have

We're initially focused on launching a functional MVP, with the potential for further development and a longer-term working relationship.

Thanks!
