GitMarket: The right way to sell code (git.market)
10 points by artsandsci on June 10, 2016 | hide | past | favorite | 7 comments



Hi! I'm Francis Perron, co-founder of GitMarket. I am the designer and front-end developer.

GitMarket is a marketplace for developers by developers, where you can sell your code or buy someone else code.

We were tired of current marketplace who sell code in zip format, which is not convenient. We think Git is a better way to do it, just like open source with GitHub.

We need the community to make this project successfull, so please signup, share, like and feel free to ask questions, I'll do my best to answer everyone!

Thank you :)


Any special offer for hacker news folks ;)


i saw on their web site that beta signups get reduced fees from 30 to 15% :)


thanks for sharing


Hi HN, CTO here.

I'm so proud to see my work here on the only news site I read daily! We are here to answer your questions if you have any and don't forget to subscribe to the beta.

Have a good day!


How is a 30% cut low? 30% is standard, and therefor not low.

"Earn 70% On Each Sale

We keep our fees low so you can get more"


In fact 30% for non-exclusive content is lower than Envato. http://themeforest.net/become-an-author

I totally agree that 30% is a base standard here but we plan to push the fees as low as we can (by giving you multiple payment providers and checkout options), we also plan to lower the fees to all beta subscribers and finally we also have lower withdraw fees (way lower than 25$ for a SWIFT transfer).

Thank you for you interest!
