The case for a multi-vendor marketplace in Taraz
Taraz is a commercial centre in Kazakhstan with a population of roughly 418,000, and one of the places where we build multi-vendor marketplaces for local businesses.
Southern city with agri-processing and trade — a business base that increasingly wants to sell online rather than through calls, messages and spreadsheets.
Kazakhstan's super-app Kaspi.kz has made instalments and instant payments the norm. Brands need Kazakh and Russian content and a delivery plan for a very large country.
That is why more companies in Taraz are moving from phone, WhatsApp and spreadsheet orders to a proper multi-vendor marketplace — one place where products, prices, payments, orders and customers are managed together.
Localised for Taraz, not translated into it
Conversion in Taraz depends on small local signals — the right currency, the right words and the right payment and courier names.
Currency and pricing
Prices, taxes, shipping and refunds are shown in Kazakhstani tenge (KZT), formatted the way Taraz customers read them.
Language and content
We localise pages, emails and notifications into Kazakh and Russian where your audience needs it.
Local trust signals
We add the payment logos, courier names and policy pages shoppers in Taraz recognise: Kaspi.kz payments and Kaspi Red instalments and Halyk Homebank and delivery through Kazpost.
Domain, phone and contact
A .kz domain (or your own) builds local trust and search relevance. Contact buttons are pre-set with +7, so a customer in Taraz taps once to call or message.
A multi-vendor marketplace built around your Taraz business
If you run a business in Taraz and want to sell online, we build an e-commerce platform and mobile application to your exact requirements, from the first product page to the last delivery update.
Typical clients include regional seller networks, B2B supplier platforms, service-provider marketplaces and institutional procurement platforms. Categories that sell especially well online in Kazakhstan — electronics, fashion, home appliances and groceries — get catalogue structures and filters designed for them.
We start with a requirements meeting, show you a working demo within 24 hours, and only then propose scope, milestones and budget.
What your multi-vendor marketplace includes
Each module below is configured — or custom-developed — to your requirements. You choose what launches first and what follows in later phases.
Vendor onboarding
Application, document verification, agreements, approval and seller dashboards with team access. Content and design can follow how customers in Taraz search and buy, including Kazakh and Russian where you need it.
Catalogue governance
Listing templates, moderation queues, category rules, image standards and duplicate detection. Catalogues come in from spreadsheets, ERP exports or supplier feeds, so your Taraz team keeps its current way of working.
Commission engine
Commissions and fees by vendor, category, product or transaction, with promotions funded by either party. Customers in Taraz can pay with Kaspi.kz payments and Kaspi Red instalments, Halyk Homebank and Visa and Mastercard, with receipts and refunds handled in the same admin.
Order routing
Split carts, vendor-wise fulfilment, shipping rules, service areas and delivery tracking. Delivery can be booked through Kazpost, CDEK and Kaspi Delivery or dispatched by your own riders around Taraz.
Settlements
Payout calculations, reconciliation reports and integration with split-payment providers where permitted. Multiple stock points in Kazakhstan are supported, so a Taraz order ships from the nearest one.
Trust and support
Ratings, reviews, returns, disputes, seller performance scores and customer-support workflows. Dashboards break sales down by product, customer and neighbourhood of Taraz, so you see what to promote.
Getting paid online in Taraz
A store that serves Taraz should let customers pay the way they do offline: Kaspi.kz payments and Kaspi Red instalments, Halyk Homebank, Visa and Mastercard and QR payments.
Provider approval, settlement time and fees differ by business type, so we shortlist gateways with you, then wire up status updates, refunds and reconciliation in KZT — card details stay with the provider.
- Kaspi.kz payments and Kaspi Red instalments
- Visa and Mastercard
- QR payments
- Halyk Homebank
- Cash on delivery
Delivery and fulfilment from Taraz
Your multi-vendor marketplace can book shipments and share tracking with Kazpost, CDEK, Kaspi Delivery, Glovo and DHL, or route orders to your own riders and stores across Taraz.
We set up shipping zones, cut-off times, free-shipping thresholds, cash-collection rules and returns so the promise on the product page matches what your team can deliver.
Selling online legally in Kazakhstan
Tax basics: Kazakhstan VAT rose to 16% from January 2026 under the new Tax Code, with registration thresholds for local businesses.
Two frameworks shape the build: the Law on Personal Data and Its Protection, which includes data-localisation requirements, and the Law on Protection of Consumer Rights and the Law on Trade Activities governing e-commerce.
We build the technical controls — tax-inclusive pricing, compliant invoices, consent banners, terms and return pages, data-access roles and audit logs. We are not a law firm, so final legal and tax positions should be confirmed with your own adviser in Kazakhstan.
Owning your channel in Kazakhstan
For a Taraz business, Kaspi.kz Marketplace, Wildberries, Ozon and Halyk Market are useful shop windows — but fees, ranking changes and shared customer data limit how far you can grow on them alone.
NNT Mart gives you a channel you own: your domain, your customer list, your pricing and your brand. Where it helps, we connect product feeds and orders from marketplaces so stock stays in sync and your team works from one dashboard.
Industries in Taraz we work with
Popular online categories in Kazakhstan include electronics, fashion, home appliances, groceries, beauty and children's goods. Southern city with agri-processing and trade — which shapes what local businesses need online. In Taraz, we most often build multi-vendor marketplaces for:
Industry-specific marketplaces
We map how industry-specific marketplaces sell today and digitise it end to end — from enquiry and order to payment, dispatch and repeat purchase.

Take your Taraz store onto customers' phones
Phones carry most traffic in Kazakhstan. Separate buyer and seller apps let customers shop and track orders while vendors manage listings, accept orders and see payouts from their phones.
One backend serves the website and the apps, and the apps ship under your own Google Play and App Store accounts — so what you change once appears everywhere.
Order alerts, offers and abandoned-cart reminders go out on Taraz time (UTC+5), in Kazakh and Russian if you want.
- Analytics and BI
- CRM and helpdesk
- Tax and invoicing systems
- Search and recommendation engines
- Split-payment and escrow providers
- KYC and business verification
- WhatsApp and push notifications
- Logistics aggregators
Integrations above are examples; we connect any system that offers a suitable API, database access or approved import and export process.
How we phase your multi-vendor marketplace
Value first, depth later. For a multi-vendor marketplace serving Taraz, the usual sequence looks like this:
| Phase | What goes live |
|---|---|
| Pilot marketplace | Seller onboarding, catalogue, checkout, order routing and basic payouts. Configured for KZT, Kaspi.kz payments and Kaspi Red instalments and Kazpost from the start. |
| Govern and grow | Moderation, commissions, promotions, reviews and dispute handling. |
| Scale | Buyer and seller apps, new categories, cities and service areas. Reviewed against how Taraz customers actually buy. |
We track active sellers, GMV and take rate, listing approval time, order defect rate, seller payout accuracy and buyer repeat rate on a live dashboard from day one, so Taraz results are visible, not promised.
Time zones, language and support
Taraz runs on UTC+5, which is 0h 30m behind India (IST). With three 8-hour shifts we are available 24×7, so meetings, demos and urgent fixes happen in your working hours.
We work in English and can deliver storefront content in Kazakh and Russian. NDAs are signed on request, and you get a named project lead plus direct access to the engineers building your multi-vendor marketplace.
Our head office is in Chhapi, Gujarat, with an office in Hyderabad and representation in Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia and Zambia; Taraz clients are served remotely with on-site workshops when the project needs them.
