Cdiscount is France’s leading independent marketplace: 19 million unique visitors per month, 7 million active customers, and 2 million subscribers to the Cdiscount à Volonté loyalty program, who buy 4–5× more often than average shoppers.
To sell there you must be a registered professional seller (private individuals are excluded), pay a subscription of €39.99/month excl. VAT (no commitment, unlimited listings), and a commission of 5–20% depending on category, calculated on the price including VAT and shipping. Payouts arrive by bank transfer every 10 days on average.
Unlike Amazon, Cdiscount accepts nearly every product type — from electronics to groceries — and seller competition is significantly lower. For a Shopify or WooCommerce merchant expanding into France, it is usually the second French channel to activate and the fastest to become profitable.
From preparing your documents to your first sale — allow a few days for account validation.
Company registration extract less than 3 months old (KBIS in France, or your EU equivalent), director’s ID, a euro IBAN/BIC, beneficial-ownership register extract, and an intra-EU VAT number. Cdiscount only accepts professional sellers — private individuals cannot open an account.
Register at marketplace.cdiscount.com: application form, supporting documents, account validation. The professional subscription costs €39.99/month excl. VAT, with no time commitment, no setup fee, and unlimited product listings.
Three options: create listings manually, upload files, or use the API — which is where Marqetir comes in: connect your Shopify or WooCommerce store directly, and AI maps your categories and localizes your listings into French.
Cdiscount collects customer payments and transfers your balance (minus commission) by bank transfer every 10 days on average. Keep complaints below 1% and on-time delivery above 99% to stay in good standing.
Commission is calculated on the sale price incl. VAT + shipping. Last verified: July 2026.

The full commission breakdown by category and all seller fees
The most profitable French channel after Amazon — with far less competition.
Cdiscount is one of the most-visited e-commerce sites in France, giving sellers direct access to continental Europe’s second-largest e-commerce market.
2 million loyalty subscribers (the local equivalent of Amazon Prime) who buy 4–5× more often. Products eligible for fast delivery capture this premium traffic.
5–8% on TVs, computers, smartphones, and appliances — among the lowest rates in Europe, versus roughly 7–15% on Amazon in the same categories.
Culture, appliances, fashion, groceries… Cdiscount is less restrictive than Amazon about categories, making it a strong channel for diversified catalogs.
Outsource logistics to the group’s 500,000 m² of warehouses (storage ≈ €15/m³/month). Fast delivery, better visibility, and access to loyalty subscribers.
Far fewer active sellers per category. For a foreign merchant with well-localized French listings — which Marqetir automates — the Buy Box is much more attainable.
