QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS SERVICE

A little clarity before the next step.

Talk to a specialist ↗
Will stock and orders update in real time?

That depends on the supplier’s API or feed. We agree a realistic schedule and supported workflows before development.

Can you import supplier products from XML or CSV?

Yes. We review a sample feed, product identifiers, field mapping, images and categories. Update rules should also cover missing products and incomplete data, so a supplier change does not unexpectedly overwrite the store catalogue.

Can you apply my own margins to supplier prices?

We can discuss rules for margins, rounding and updates based on the available supplier data. The specification should define how price changes, currencies and missing values are handled before automatic updates are enabled.

How much will the work cost?

Share the details through our quote form. We clarify scope, pricing and timing before you decide.
