Growth
A year after launch in November 2017, OnBuy listed its two millionth product.[13] OnBuy’s growth has been boosted by several partnerships, including signing a two-year partnership deal for hosting and support with online cloud services provider UKFast.[14] The partnership is said to ensure the stability, reliability and speed of the OnBuy platform. In December 2017, OnBuy announced that any seller who signed up in that month could sell without paying any fees for the whole of 2018. At the same time, OnBuy announced a new TV campaign, beginning with advertisements on the ITV network over Christmas.
Awards
In February 2020, OnBuy won the Retail Without Borders' "Marketplace Merchant Logistics" Award[15]
