Italian term or phrase: canali di vendita online
This text introduces the customer to this fashion and luxury items website. It describes how great they are at providing every thing the customer needs, and how top quality all the items are. The context reads:

"Non è uno dei tanti canali di vendita online, ma è molto di più:...."

I don't think "online shopping channel" would work here as I do not think this is a TV channel. I don't want to use "outlet" as this has been used earlier in the English and I don't think term would be correct. Is there a good way to say this?
