Unified retail media platform, Zitcha and global leader in marketplace technology, have partnered to set a new benchmark in digital commerce. The collaboration creates an ecosystem that seamlessly integrates retail media and marketplace models, offering opportunities for retailers, advertisers, and customers.
Founded in 2017, Marketplacer is a marketplace platform and dropshipping solution that allows enterprise companies to scale and grow with clients including Myer, Woolworths Group and Tesco.
By integrating their platforms, Zitcha and Marketplacer will enable retailers to unlock the potential of their digital e-commerce strategies, including leveraging marketplace data to enhance the targeting precision and personalisation of retail media campaigns, maximising return on investment for advertisers, and boosting sales for owned inventory and third-party sellers.
Marketplace data, including customer purchasing behaviour, search trends, and competitive pricing insights, feeds into Zitcha’s retail media platform, giving advertisers the ability to deliver highly relevant campaigns. Marketplace sellers also benefit from opportunities to invest in sponsored placements and targeted campaigns via retailer websites and apps.
Zitcha chief revenue officer, Nick Hinsley (above) said, “Marketplace models and retail media platforms were once seen as separate pillars of commerce, but their integration unlocks a flywheel effect. More sellers and broader product offerings drive traffic, which in turn fuels ad revenue and product visibility. It’s a self-reinforcing cycle of growth that benefits everyone in the ecosystem.
“At the core of this partnership is a commitment to improving the customer experience. By integrating retail media and marketplaces, we’re not only driving incremental revenue for retailers and advertisers, but also delivering value to shoppers through convenience, relevance, and choice.”
For retailers, the partnership enables third-party sellers to advertise alongside their listings, using retail media revenue to offset customer acquisition costs, and driving higher total transaction value by combining targeted advertising with an expanded product selection.
Marketplacer CEO, Jason Wyatt added, “This partnership with Zitcha sets the stage for a new era of digital commerce, empowering businesses to thrive in an omnichannel world where seamless integration is the key to success. It represents a significant step forward in how retailers can connect their marketplace operations with sophisticated retail media strategies to achieve holistic growth.”
