Transferantique, a platform for antique dealers by antique dealers. A place where professional traders make their antique pearls available for sale. A commission-free system where communication and mutual relations are key.

How it all started...

All with the same love for the product, and the need to be able to trade with each other. The solution was simple: bringing professional antique dealers together in one place, digitally. Why would you think, because the world of antiques is such a beautiful place where a lot of valuable treasures can be found, but often remain hidden because trading is too intensive. Communicating, getting to know each other, looking at products and closing deals, from stock exchange to market, from East to West all over the world. Transferantique makes that a lot easier!

We bring the offline experience to a digital experience with a platform where professional traders meet. For this, sales, field, R&D, strategy, development and marketing put their heads together. A smart move, as it turns out, because the first version soon came into being. A user-first solution that was, and still is, step by step, supplemented with features that really matter.

For antique dealers, by antique dealers

The most important thing in the whole story? The platform should allow merchants to get to know each other online, regardless of a commission system. We only offer access for professionals, antique dealers who understand the value of antiques and think out of love for the product. Based on the data of the market, we determine what the design will look like and what features will be on the platform.

The key to success?

Many entrepreneurs ask us about the secret behind the success of Transferantique. But honestly? There is no such thing. We just practice what we preach: devise and develop on the basis of what the users really need, according to a strategic plan that is ready for impact.

Our team researches, identifies and looks for solutions. Do the needs change? Then the plan changes. Take a critical look at the solution you offer. Which features are often used? What are the needs of the user? Which is unnecessary? This is how you build something that the market is really looking for.

Each antique piece is a unique piece. However, that rule does not apply the other way around. This creates new ideas for platforms with an even greater impact. Not to mention the planned internationalization. Antiques dealers are everywhere. And it would be a shame to hide such a pearl forever in our little country. Our answer to this? Las Vegas is the answer, no matter the question.
