Why join BarMaker.ch
A platform built for the houses that manufacture for bars, restaurants and hotels — not a general marketplace taking a cut at your expense.
100% free registration
Zero subscription, zero listing fees, zero term commitment. You only pay when you sell.
Locked declining commission
25% up to CHF 10,000, then 20%, 17%, and a floor of 15% beyond CHF 200,000 in annual sales. Automatically recalculated with every order.
Instant payment, no advance
Every order is collected and split automatically: your share lands on your Stripe account, BarMaker.ch's commission is deducted at source. No delay, no chasing.

Your prices in CHF, automatically displayed to buyers in EUR, USD, GBP, JPY, AED, and 10 other currencies. You sell in Tokyo as easily as in Lausanne.

Frequently asked questions
How much does it actually cost?+
No fixed cost: no sign-up fee, no subscription, no publishing fee. You are only charged on an order that has actually been paid. As long as you don't sell, the platform costs you nothing — the risk stays on our side.
What if a buyer asks for a refund?+
You trigger the refund yourself from your dashboard. BarMaker.ch's commission remains due (the matchmaking work was performed, per art. 412 CO on brokerage). This protects the buyer without putting you at a disadvantage.
Am I competing with my own website?+
No. BarMaker.ch opens an additional channel to an international professional clientele you wouldn't have reached alone, without touching your direct channels.
When do I get paid?+
The same day. Funds never pass through a BarMaker.ch account: Stripe Connect pays your share straight into your own account. No cash advance, no counterparty risk.
Who handles after-sales service and delivery?+
You do. That's the principle of direct matchmaking: you ship, you invoice, you manage the customer relationship. BarMaker.ch stays out of the operational flow — so you keep the quality of service you know how to deliver.
Can I leave the platform at any time?+
Yes, with no notice and no fees. Only the non-circumvention clause (24 months) remains on buyers met via BarMaker.ch — the standard Swiss equivalent of a brokerage contract.
Are my contact details publicly visible?+
No. Your house name, country, story and products are visible. Your email, phone, website and precise address stay confidential. All communication goes through BarMaker.ch while the relationship is new.
How many manufacturers do you already have?+
BarMaker.ch launches in 2026 with a first wave of selected houses in Switzerland and internationally. The first signed manufacturers benefit from priority editorial visibility over time.
