Building a marketplace with Vercel? Let us review it.
Expert code review for marketplace apps built with Vercel. We fix Vercel-specific security gaps, optimize performance, and handle deployment. From $19.
Common Vercel issues we find
Real problems from Vercel codebases we've reviewed.
Missing environment variables
Variables set locally but not configured in Vercel, causing runtime crashes in production that didn't happen during development.
No security headers
Missing Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, and other headers that protect against XSS, clickjacking, and content injection.
Serverless function timeouts
API routes that take too long hit Vercel's timeout limits, causing 504 errors for users.
Cold start latency
Serverless functions have cold start delays that make API responses slow after periods of inactivity.
Marketplace challenges to solve
Key marketplace concerns that AI-generated code often misses.
Payment splitting and payouts
Buyers pay, the platform takes a cut, sellers receive the rest. This requires Stripe Connect or similar — significantly more complex than basic checkout. AI tools rarely implement this correctly, leaving you with manual payout processes.
Two-sided authorization
Sellers can manage their listings but not other sellers'. Buyers can view listings but only manage their own orders. Admins can moderate everything. Three distinct permission levels, all enforced server-side.
Trust and safety
Reviews, ratings, dispute resolution, content moderation, and fraud detection. These are complex systems that AI tools don't generate but that make or break a marketplace.
Search and discovery
Users need to find what they're looking for. Basic database queries won't cut it at scale — you need full-text search, filters, sorting, and potentially geolocation. This requires proper indexing or a dedicated search service.
What we check
Key areas we review for Vercel marketplace projects.
Payment flow — Stripe Connect setup, split payments, seller payouts
Authorization — buyer vs seller vs admin permissions enforced server-side
Data integrity — race conditions, inventory management, order state machines
Search performance — indexing, query optimization, full-text search
