It works under the concept of an "open cooperative": that is to say, everyone can easily become a member of FairCoop. As a seller, simply by using this tool, building your e-shop and providing your goods and services, you can take part in the process and therefore participate as a member of it.

FairMarket will be launched in three phases. During the alpha, the platform was set up and tested for bugs. It did not include checkout but allowed people to start uploading products, making contacts and get started with the platform. Now, we are entering Beta. The market opens for trading and you can buy and sell things with Faircoin. Distribution (shipping) must be agreed between parties, and many other features are still lacking, but we now have a functioning platform.

The third phase will be the fully productive one, when FairCoop will present the post-capitalist world with a fully-featured marketplace to build the networked economy that we all deserve.

Distribution (shipping) requires some extra setup, and relies on existing distribution networks as we conceive and plan our own alternative distribution systems. Many other features are still lacking, but we are planning to move to a new version of odoo, the underlying software that powers Fairmarket, which is a job which will require an update of all the modules our team have written for it. Meanwhile we continue to release new versions, and have a plan for a 0.9 release before a full site relaunch, with this fabled new odoo version.
