Purchasing from companies that sometimes do not have possession of products

Q: Many online platforms such as Takealot, Amazon, Wish, Temu, Shein, etc. sell products which are not owned by these companies or sometimes not in the ownership or possession of these companies. Will it be permissible to purchase from these sites?

A: If they are doing it on a commission basis, it will be permissible.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
