In recent years, literature on regulation and competition has started a research field in a phenomenon related to technological innovations in the past years: two or more sided markets. The proliferation of this kind of market has economists and competition authorities wondering if, in spite of all the benefits that could be withdrawn from the existence of this kind of market, it could also open up space so that anti-competitive practices may appear within these platforms, negatively affecting welfare. Regarding this, the present essay is centered upon analyzing the implications that antitrust studies may have to take in consideration while addressing multi sided markets, reviewing the particularities involved in the determination of the relevant market, the price definition strategies, and the implications over market power and welfare. Also, this study reviews three cases of merger in multisided platforms in the online retail segment on an international and local level. From these experiences we conclude that the effect of mergers on welfare is uncertain, and direction of the effect (hence positive or negative) will depend on inherent factors for each specific case such as market structure, demand elasticities, and dominance position.
