Six FAQs about the DigiKey Marketplace

You have probably heard all the excitement around our new marketplace by now. You’ve seen the ads on your phone and read the chit-chat on social media, but you still have a few questions. You might even be a little hesitant.

First and foremost, rest assured, you get the same DigiKey quality as you always have - that has not changed. The only difference is, with the marketplace, we can provide you access to much more than board-level components.

Here are 6 quick FAQs you may not know about the DigiKey Marketplace:

  1. We review and vet every vendor in the DigiKey Marketplace and hold them to the same quality standards as our standard line card.
  2. Marketplace products will be marked as a “Marketplace product” on the product page, in your cart, and as you make your way through the purchasing process.
  3. Marketplace items are shipped directly from the supplier. You will be notified who is shipping the product and if, for any reason, the inventory shown has become unavailable.
  4. Shipping from Marketplace suppliers takes 1-5 days.
  5. The Marketplace now has over 300,000+ new products from over 1,100 suppliers, and it’s growing every day.
  6. Excluding marketplace products from your search is quick and easy. You simply check the box to exclude marketplace products from your search, and all marketplace products will be filtered out.
