Services · Ecommerce development · Interior design consultation marketplaces
Codeeo delivers interior design consultation booking website development Dallas founders, design collectives and home industry brands use to run a marketplace: independent designers apply and get verified, homeowners compare profiles, book a paid consultation, and the platform collects payment, keeps its commission and pays each designer out. Across Dallas, design demand comes from Highland Park remodels, Uptown condos, Lakewood bungalows and new builds in Frisco and McKinney. A marketplace that sorts all of that by neighborhood, budget and style turns scattered referrals into booked, paid sessions.
We have delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US, with a team of 80+ across Dubai, Riyadh and Karachi. Our team works with Dallas clients remotely, so discovery, design reviews and launch sign off all run by video call.

What the marketplace includes
A homeowner in Preston Hollow rarely books the first designer they find. They compare portfolios, check who works on large single family remodels, look at reviews and want to know what the first session costs before they hand over a card. On the other side, a designer working out of the Dallas Design District wants control over their calendar, a clear view of what the platform keeps, and payouts that land on a predictable schedule.
So the build covers both sides at once. Designer onboarding and verification, searchable listings, a checkout that takes the consultation fee, split payments with commission held back, and a dispute and refund process the operator can run without spreadsheets. Each piece below is configurable from the admin, so you can change commission or cancellation terms without calling a developer.
Designers apply with a portfolio, service area, specialties and proof of insurance if you require it. Your team reviews each application in a queue, requests changes, and approves or declines. Designers who claim the Texas title of registered interior designer can upload their registration number, which your staff checks against the Texas Board of Architectural Examiners record before a badge appears.
Only designers you have checked appear in search.
Homeowners filter by area, from Park Cities and Oak Cliff to Plano and Southlake, and by project type such as full remodel, new build furnishing, single room refresh or staging for sale. Results respect each designer's chosen travel radius, so nobody in Rockwall is matched with a designer who only works inside Loop 12. Style tags such as modern farmhouse, transitional or traditional help clients narrow the shortlist further.
Clients see designers who actually cover their address.
Each designer sets the sessions they sell: an in home walkthrough, a video consultation, a showroom sourcing session at Dallas Market Center, or a fixed scope e-design package. Length, fee and what the client receives are shown before booking, and the platform can enforce a minimum fee or a set of allowed formats.
Prices and deliverables are clear before checkout.
Clients pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through a processor built for marketplaces. The payment is split at capture: the platform commission stays with you and the remainder is assigned to the designer's connected account. Card data stays inside the processor's hosted fields, which keeps your PCI DSS scope small.
Every booking is paid up front and split automatically.
Set commission by designer tier, by session type or by promotion source. Payouts can release after the session is marked complete, after a hold period, or on a weekly schedule. Designers see each booking, fee, deduction and transfer in their own earnings screen, and the processor handles identity checks and the tax forms they need.
Designers trust the numbers and stop emailing for statements.
After payment, the client answers a short brief: rooms involved, ceiling heights, photos, inspiration images, budget band and timing. For new construction in Frisco or Celina, they can attach builder plans and selection sheets. The designer arrives at the first meeting already knowing the house.
The first paid hour is spent designing, not collecting facts.
Cancellation windows, partial refunds and no show rules are configured per session type. If a client disputes a session, the case opens in the admin with the booking, messages and brief attached, and your team decides the outcome. Refunds reverse the split correctly, so the designer's share and your commission are both adjusted.
Disputes close with a record, not a phone argument.
Client and designer talk inside the platform, tied to the booking, so contact details stay private until you allow them to be shared. When the first consultation turns into a larger project, the designer can send a proposal for a paid package through the same thread, and the platform takes its agreed share of that follow on work too.
Repeat work stays on the platform instead of leaking off it.
Only clients with a completed, paid session can leave a review, and the review shows the session type. Designers can reply but cannot remove reviews. This structure supports the FTC rule on consumer reviews and testimonials, which bans fake reviews and the suppression of negative ones.
Ratings that Dallas homeowners can believe.
One view of bookings, gross volume, commission earned, refunds, open disputes and designers waiting for approval. Filter by area or by designer to see where demand outruns supply, for example more Frisco requests than designers who travel north of the George Bush Turnpike.
You recruit designers where bookings are being lost.
Who this is for
A marketplace only works when both sides get something they cannot easily get alone. Homeowners get a vetted shortlist and a clear first fee. Designers get paid leads and payment handled for them. The Dallas businesses below usually have one side of that already and need a platform that builds the other side. This is interior design services platform development Dallas operators approach as a business decision first: who supplies the designers, who brings the homeowners, and what share of each booking keeps the model healthy.
Many Dallas designers already pass work to each other informally. A collective platform turns those referrals into listings with set fees and a commission back to the group. We build the application review, the shared brand and the payout logic, so the collective runs like a business rather than a group text.
Start with the members you already trust, then open applications.
A retailer near the Design District can sell paid sessions with outside designers who then source from its floor. The marketplace books the consultation, takes payment and records which designer brought which client, so trade programs and commissions on later purchases have a clean source. The showroom gains a reason for homeowners to visit, and designers gain booked clients without running their own checkout.
Buyers closing on new homes across Collin and Denton counties often want furnishing help soon after move in. A builder or brokerage can offer a branded booking site with approved designers, a referral fee per session and reporting on which communities generate demand. Buyers can book from a link in their closing packet, and the builder sees which floor plans lead to the most design requests.
If you are starting a design marketplace from scratch, Dallas is a reasonable first market before expanding across Texas. We plan the first release around a limited number of designers and areas, with the data model ready for more cities and different commission terms later.
Launch narrow, measure fill rates, then add areas.
How we work together
Most founders begin with a fixed scope first release that covers designer vetting, booking, checkout and payouts. After launch, a monthly retainer adds features in priority order, such as packages, gift sessions for realtors to hand buyers at closing, or a referral program for designers who recruit peers. Operators planning several Texas cities at once sometimes take a dedicated team that stays with the platform. In each case the team works with you remotely, and every scope, estimate and change is written down before work starts.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
We pick a stack your next developer can maintain: a modern web framework, a managed database, a marketplace payment processor with connected accounts, and hosting with backups and monitoring. Accessibility is built against WCAG so the site supports ADA expectations, and image delivery is tuned so heavy portfolio galleries still load quickly on a phone.

It depends on scope, which we fix in discovery.
The main factors are how many session types you sell, how complex your commission and payout rules are, how many integrations you need, and how many designers you onboard before launch. Once discovery is complete we write the scope and the schedule together and share it with you. A focused first release with vetting, booking, checkout and payouts comes first; extras such as packages, gift sessions or referral programs follow once you can see real booking patterns across Dallas and the suburbs.
