White Label Yacht Marketplace Features: Built Around the Lead
The same boat often sits on several portals at once, so stock alone will not set you apart. What does is the buyer's history, the quality of your lead data and how quickly a broker answers, and all three live in software you would own. This is the feature set of the platform underneath the yacht marketplace clones, sorted by who touches it, with every outside account and deployment decision written next to the feature it affects.

Six working surfaces, all running on one API and one PostgreSQL database that you would hold.
The Buyer
Search by keyword, then narrow with ranges for price, year, length, beam, draft and engine hours, or by country, state and a map radius. Favorites and side-by-side compare sit beside named saved searches that email new matches daily or weekly once your SMTP account is connected. Prices display in six currencies and the interface in five languages.
The Private Owner
Owners describe the vessel, their contact details and the price they hope for in a structured sell form instead of a free-text message, and get a dashboard of their own. The listing that results carries ordered, captioned photos, a video tour link that plays inside the gallery, share links and a printable specification sheet.
The Broker
A listing manager with photo and upgrade control, and a kanban board where each enquiry carries a status, a stage and private notes. Replies stay in a thread scoped to that enquiry, and the time to a broker's first answer is stored and reported, so a slow desk shows up on the dashboard.
The Brokerage
A directory and profile page with branding, bio, contacts, regions served, specializations and languages, plus ratings, review counts and a verified badge. Behind it sit client records holding email, phone, budget, status and private notes, with vessels shortlisted against each client. Middleware ties every broker route to a brokerage.
The Service Desks
Eight adjacent modules, each with a public intake form and an operator desk: sell leads, charter, insurance, transport, finance, surveyors, valuations and boat shows. Requests arrive as structured records with a status workflow. The modules route enquiries and do nothing more, a boundary spelled out further down this page.
The Operator
Users and brokerages, listing moderation, plans with an activate switch and subscriber counts, taxonomy, platform settings, articles and FAQs, tickets and disputes, and the eight desks, all in one console that a non-engineer can run day to day.
Five roles exist in the sign-in claims: guest, buyer, seller, broker and admin. The service desks are the console's second face rather than a sixth role, and each of the four signed-in roles has a working login in the live demo.
Rented Platform vs One-Time Script vs Miracuves Platform
Three ways to own a yacht marketplace, judged on the things that only matter once real stock and real brokers arrive.
| What decides it | Rented or hosted platform | One-time script | Miracuves platform |
|---|---|---|---|
| How you pay | A recurring fee, often per seat or per listing | A single purchase, roughly $250 to $1,500 on the open market | $4,299, one time, with no seat fee and no revenue share |
| The buyer data | Kept on the provider's servers under its terms | Yours, on whatever server you set up | Yours, in a PostgreSQL database you host |
| If the payments stop | The site can go dark with the invoice | Nothing changes, though you carry the upkeep | Nothing switches off, and you keep the source |
| The vessel record | Whatever fields the provider offers | Often a title, a price and a photo array | More than forty vessel fields with their own filters |
| What happens to an enquiry | Frequently an email to a shared inbox | Usually the same | A lead with stage, notes, replies and a first-response timer |
| Broker client records | Varies by plan | Rarely present | Budgets, notes and shortlists per client |
| Mobile app | Depends on the plan | Cheaper tiers often ship web-view apps rather than native ones | An Expo React Native app on the same API |
| Source code | Stays with the provider | Some vendors withhold it from every published tier | The whole monorepo transfers |
A rental bundles hosting and upkeep into its fee, which is a real convenience, so compare a one-time software cost against a recurring one and not against a lower total. Our Development Cost page sets the routes side by side.
One Lead, From First Search to Sold
A single buyer and a single vessel, followed through every screen they touch.
Narrow the stock, save the search
The buyer sets length, draft, price and a map radius in a single query, then saves it under a name with a daily or weekly alert. Make, type and place counts come from separate facet endpoints, so changing one filter does not recount the whole result set.
Shortlist and watch the price
Favorites and a compare view work the same on web and mobile. Each listing keeps a price history that only ever appends, and a price-drop badge and search toggle bring reductions forward, because a cut on a high-value boat is what pushes a long decision along.
Send the enquiry, answer the questions
Capture is rate limited and records the subject, message, source and intent, plus contact details for guests. The buyer can then complete a LeadSmart questionnaire, and each brokerage sets its own intent threshold for what counts as a hot lead.
Stage it and reply in the thread
The lead lands on the broker's board. Every message in its thread shows sender, role, name and time, and a live server-sent stream pushes new activity with a thirty-second heartbeat. Web Push joins in once you supply VAPID keys.
Offer alternatives on the client file
Buyers seldom buy the boat they first clicked. The broker attaches other vessels to the client record with notes, measured against the budget stored on that same record.
Under offer, then sold
A listing moves from active to under offer to sold, and a sold price and date are recorded. Those sales become the comparables behind market evaluation and the public market reports.
The requests that follow the sale
A sale brings insurance, transport, finance, survey and valuation demand with it. Each of those requests goes through its own form, reference code where built, and desk, so the demand is recorded even though the work behind it belongs to your partners.
Web and mobile talk to one API, so an enquiry typed on a phone shows up on the broker board with no second integration.
Why Each Module Is in the Base Build
Each row answers a problem a brokerage runs into within its first season, not a checklist item borrowed from a rival.
| Module | The reason it ships |
|---|---|
| First-response measure | With one boat on many portals, the broker who replies first and knowledgeably tends to win the conversation. Reporting it per broker turns a habit into a number. |
| LeadSmart questionnaire | Few leads arrive and each is valuable, so they cannot all be handled alike. An adjustable intent threshold shows which buyer to call first. |
| Append-only price history | Buyers weigh a purchase for months and watch the price throughout. A trail that cannot be edited is a nudge to buy and the evidence for a later valuation. |
| Client shortlists | Brokers sell alternatives as often as the clicked listing. Without a shortlist on the client file, that substitution happens in a chat app and leaves no trace. |
| Map-radius search | A vessel's location drives viewing costs and delivery. The radius has to combine with technical ranges in one query or the filter is decoration. |
| Brokerage middleware | A group with several offices needs each lead routed to the right desk from day one, enforced by the server and not just hidden in the interface. |
| Eight service desks | Insurance, transport, finance and survey requests follow every sale. Recorded, they become an extra revenue line; unrecorded, they go to whoever picks up the phone. |
| Plan and upgrade limits | Listing and featured-slot limits stored with each plan give a subscription tier a boundary, so a price means something to the broker who buys it. |
Each of these can be switched on, switched off or renamed for your deployment through plans, settings and taxonomy, which is what lets one build serve a single-brand portal or a multi-broker marketplace.
The Technology Under the Features
What the code is written in, and what that means for the engineers who take it over.
Every integration point, whether payments, SMTP, VAPID, exchange rates or object storage, is a documented seam and not a wired-in vendor, so your team can swap one without touching the rest.
What Is Not Included in the Base Package
Set out before a purchase, so nothing turns up on the invoice.
Live payment processing
Plan selection, billing-cycle records, checkout and cancellation are built, but the invoice history is a generated six-row mock. Connecting a provider such as Stripe or Adyen is a standard configuration step that we quote with your deployment. It is not live in the base build.
Some console controls are for show
Only the platform settings are confirmed to save and reload. A few admin controls are decorative, and the six-month subscription trend is a modelled monthly-equivalent series rather than settled cash. The security handbook lists each one.
Live updates run on one node
Server-sent events are process-local, and rate limiting is in-process at launch. A second instance needs shared pub/sub and a shared rate-limit store first, and the written scale path says so.
The accounts behind it are yours
Your payment provider, SMTP, Web Push and exchange-rate keys, and your Apple and Google developer identities, are held in your name. Object storage and a CDN for listing media are the documented next step and not a shipped module.
The service desks route enquiries only
The eight modules capture a request and queue it. They do not bind cover, approve credit, guarantee transport or certify surveys, and the platform never claims they do. No vessels, brokers or service partners come with it, and broker licensing, listing accuracy and title checks remain yours.
What exists is real
Over forty vessel fields, technical and map search, saved-search alerts, the lead pipeline, client records, LeadSmart, plans and upgrades, eight service desks, six currencies, five languages, two-factor sign-in and the Docker, Nginx, PM2 and EAS files, all open to try in the demo.
The developer and security handbook maps each control to the file that implements it and marks it as built or as pre-launch hardening. The named release gates are listed on the Provider page, and no certification is claimed anywhere.
Weighing a rental, a script, an agency and us?
The Provider page sets the four routes side by side, lists the nine questions worth asking any seller, walks through the six-step delivery, and shows a modelled marine services deployment.

Explore the White Label Yacht Marketplace
A brokerage platform, not a boat grid
Listings deep enough for the asset, search by range and radius, leads that keep their history as they change hands, broker client files and eight service desks, with the source on infrastructure you control.
Talk to Us →Miracuves is an independent software development company. We are not affiliated with, connected to, sponsored by, or endorsed by YachtWorld, or any other yacht, boat or marine listing service.
“White label yacht marketplace” describes a category of product, not any one company. Brand names appear elsewhere on this site only to describe the kind of platform being built and the terms buyers search for.
The entire design and codebase is built by our own team. The product contains no code, design, graphics, or content originating from any third-party marine marketplace website or application.
No vessels, listings, brokers or service partners are supplied with the platform. Broker licensing, listing accuracy and title checks, and the regulated work behind the insurance, finance, transport and survey modules belong to you and your partners; the modules only route enquiries. All third-party names and marks are the property of their respective owners.
