Develop Artra: Subscription Artist Marketplace Website

Job ID: 39406382

Budget: $200 – $1,000 AUD

Build “Artra” – Multi-Vendor Artist Marketplace & Community Website (Subscription-Based, All Art Forms)



Description:

I’m looking for a talented web developer or no-code expert to build Artra—a modern, multi-vendor marketplace and creative community website where artists of all kinds can showcase their work, connect with others, and build income through direct visibility and discovery.

Artra will be a fully responsive website (not an app), built to support creators across disciplines—visual artists, musicians, writers, digital creators, sculptors, and more.



About Artra:

Artra is a subscription-based, multi-vendor platform designed with artists in mind. It empowers them to create a profile, upload work, and sell directly to collectors without any commission fees.

Artists pay a flat monthly subscription to access marketplace tools, community features, and exposure—they keep 100% of their profits from art sales.

It blends the best of Etsy, Patreon, and Behance, built with clean UI and artist-centered functionality.



Core MVP Features:

1. Multi-Vendor Artist Profiles
• Signup/login for both artists and collectors
• Custom artist storefronts with:
• Bio, location, profile image
• Uploads: images, audio, video, PDFs
• Social links

2. Artist Dashboard
• Upload/manage works
• Set pricing, categories, and availability
• Manage subscription, followers, and basic messages

3. Marketplace & Public Gallery
• View all available art from all vendors
• Filter by art form, medium, price, or artist
• Artwork detail pages with preview, description, and “About the Artist”

4. Community Features
• Follow artists
• Like/favorite works
• Tag collaborators
• Optional: “Open for Collab” label

5. Subscription System (No Platform Fees)
• Monthly subscription for artists (via Stripe or PayPal)
• No commission on sales
• Flexible system for adding more tiers in future

6. Admin Tools
• Approve or feature artists/artworks
• Manage user base and subscriptions
• Update homepage or banner content

7. Modern UI/UX
• Minimalist, gallery-style design
• Fully responsive on desktop, tablet, and mobile
• Optimized display for all content types (visual, audio, video, PDFs)



Preferred Platforms (choose based on expertise):
• Bubble.io – preferred for MVP no-code builds
• Webflow – ideal for design-first websites with back-end integrations
• Framer – excellent UI responsiveness and design
• WordPress – with marketplace plugins (Dokan, MemberPress, WooCommerce)

Also open to hybrid or custom approaches if you can justify them.



Deliverables:
• Full MVP website with the above features
• Admin and vendor (artist) dashboards
• Subscription system fully functional
• Clean, scalable code or no-code structure for future growth
• Optional handoff documentation or basic tutorial



Ideal Freelancer:
• Experience with multi-vendor marketplaces or community platforms
• Understanding of artist-focused UX/UI
• Clear communication and collaborative mindset
• Portfolio of similar platforms or creative projects
• Bonus: Available for future updates or maintenance



Budget & Timeline:
• Please provide a quote in AUD and an estimated MVP delivery timeline
• Open to fixed-fee or milestone-based payment structure
