How can a small business start selling on Worten Marketplace?
Short answer
Register as a seller on the Worten marketplace: Worten accepts companies and sole traders, and approves each one before they can sell. Then prepare the catalogue with good photos, full specifications and accurate stock, set delivery times and costs you can keep, and make sure you can issue a Portuguese invoice for every order, because on the marketplace the seller does. Worten charges a commission per sale that depends on the category, so confirm the current terms first. Connecting the marketplace to your own shop or stock list keeps stock and orders in one place.

What you need before you apply
- A registered business, as a company or a sole trader (empresário em nome individual).
- Products in a category Worten sells, with good photos, full specifications, and barcodes (EAN) for products that have them.
- A way to deliver within the times you promise, including bulky items if you sell furniture.
- Invoicing software that issues a proper Portuguese invoice, with ATCUD and QR code, for every order.
The steps
- Apply as a seller on the Worten marketplace and wait for approval.
- Upload the catalogue, by hand for a few products or through a feed or an integration for more.
- Set prices, stock, delivery times and delivery costs.
- Handle orders: confirm, ship, issue the invoice and add the tracking.
- Answer customer questions and handle returns promptly. On a marketplace, every buyer sees how you treat the last one.
Keeping it manageable
The hard part is not the setup but the upkeep: selling something you no longer have, or missing an order in a second back office. Connecting Worten to your own shop or stock list means one stock count and one order list. The same applies if you later add KuantoKusta, Fnac or Leroy Merlin, which also run marketplaces in Portugal.
