OTTO Marketplace Agency

Scale OTTO Marketplace with the first seller agency.

We're an official OTTO Partner Agency, scaling brands on Germany's #2 e-commerce marketplace: 11M active customers, EUR 6.5B GMV, ~6,500 marketplace partners. First-mover advantage with -40% CPCs and +30% ROAS vs. Amazon.

Instead of treating OTTO as an island, we view it as a strategic lever in your multi-channel setup. From hands-on experience at SNOCKS and Oceans Apart we know: brands scaling Amazon and OTTO in parallel gain 30-50% incremental revenue at higher margins.
