UPDATE: Now you can sync your inventory and pricing info to the Takealot Seller Portal!  

For all of you that are already selling on the Takealot Marketplace through their Seller Portal, you’ll agree that the management of your pricing and inventory is a real headache. This is because there’s never been a way to sync the seller portal info with the inventory and pricing info of your company’s accounting system or ERP… Until now!  

Our friends at Storehub have come to our rescue by building a connector software which can now automatically update your pricing and inventory quantities as those numbers change within your website,  accounting system or ERP. This means that you no longer need to rush over to the Takealot Seller Portal each time you run out of stock of an item or if there’s a price change. 

You’ll still need to create your products on the Takealot Marketplace (or add someone else’s listing to your inventory) and then the Storehub connector will take care of the rest by:

  •  Updating your offer price per product
  •  Updating your RRP (recommended retail price)
  •  Pushing stock lead times from your website or ERP to the Seller Portal
  •  Setting the available quantity which you make available for sale, and
  • Importing sales from Takealot back into your website / ERP

 

 At this point they have developed the Takealot connector integration to work with the following systems: 

  • Shopify
  • WordPress / WooCommerce
  • Netcash Shop
  • Ecwid 
  • Sage 
  • Xero, & 
  • IQ Retail
