Checked out your website and seems decent. How do you net €600 a month though? I see no ads or transaction fees?

Two things:

- We allow users to highlight their listings, which means the listing is shown on the homepage and at the top of the selected category

- we have a verification wizard that verifies the users telephone number and iban, which we charge for as well

We’ve almost finished a Stripe Connect integration, which allows users to pay for items through the platform itself (they now pay in person or by bank transfer). This will contain a processing fee.
