Our model

A direct, transparent
relationship model.

BarMaker.ch is not a reseller, not a wholesaler, not a middleman that gets in the way. It is a direct-introduction platform connecting bar, restaurant and hotel professionals with premium manufacturers worldwide.

Direct introductions

Buyers and makers talk to each other. BarMaker.ch is the bridge, never the screen. The quote, the order and the delivery stay between the two professionals.

No stock, no after-sales

We hold no stock, ship nothing, handle no after-sales service. Our role stops at the introduction, secure payment and commission accounting.

Buyer protection

Any product with an active order becomes non-deletable. The manufacturer must deliver or refund in full — and BarMaker.ch's commission stays earned in both cases (Swiss CO art. 412).

Instant payment, zero advance

Stripe Connect collects in CHF, pulls our commission automatically and pays the rest to the manufacturer. BarMaker.ch never advances funds and never stores card data.

Switzerland → Worldwide

Swiss company based in Lavey-les-Bains, Swiss law, FADP-compliant. Buyers and makers everywhere, payment in CHF with local display in 15 currencies.

Free signup, BarMaker.ch editorial selection

No subscription, no listing fees. Manufacturers only pay a sliding commission on actual sales — 25% → 15% depending on revenue.

Process

How it works

  1. 01

    The manufacturer publishes

    Free signup and BarMaker.ch editorial selection (average five business days). The manufacturer lists products with prices in CHF excl. VAT, MOQ and confirmed stock.

  2. 02

    The buyer discovers

    The professional browses the catalogue, filters by category, quality criteria, country. Sees the CHF price and the automatic conversion to their currency.

  3. 03

    Secure Stripe payment

    Collected in CHF, sliding commission deducted automatically (25/20/17/15%), balance instantly transferred to the manufacturer.

  4. 04

    Direct delivery

    The manufacturer ships on its own terms. BarMaker.ch never steps into logistics. The commercial relationship stays between the two parties.

  5. 05

    Buyer protection

    If the manufacturer doesn't deliver, they must refund in full from their dashboard. BarMaker.ch's commission stays earned in both cases (Swiss CO art. 412).

Why this model

Because bar, restaurant and hotel professionals want the real makers — not yet another reseller. And because premium manufacturers want a channel that brings them qualified buyers without getting in the way.

BarMaker.ch is a Swiss company based in Lavey-les-Bains, governed by Swiss law and the revised FADP. Our promise is locked by contract: no stock, no after-sales, no screen between you and the manufacturer. Just a clean, secure bridge.
