About Catawiki
Catawiki, founded by René Schoenmakers and Marco Jansen, evolved from an online community for collectors into a leading online auction platform. It hosts weekly auctions across various categories, including art, collectibles, and rare items. Initially focusing on comics, the platform expanded to other items like coins and stamps. Catawiki employs a curator model, using over 240 experts to authenticate and curate auction items. The company’s success led to significant funding rounds and recognition as the fastest-growing technology company in Europe. Catawiki operates a secure payment system, charging buyers and sellers fees for transactions. The platform has become a go-to destination for collectors worldwide, offering a diverse range of unique items.
