While still in Beta, you can search for answers regarding the marketplace to get a better understanding of how it works for providers and customers, as well as identifying any differences between sourcing equipment and services.
The marketplace is an additional feature to our equipment booking system. It’s a place any Clustermarket user can access to search for or share instruments and services with other laboratories. Its goal is to give your lab an additional source of income,improve equipment utilisation and increase your research impact by collaborating with other scientists in different labs.
For instruments: your instruments are not visible to other labs... / For services: services are different from instruments as they are by default available for external users and you don’t have to define pricing information...

Clustermarket charges a small service fee to cover the transaction cost, which is always disclosed in the invoice.
