Skroutz, BestPrice, Shopflix and Public, with the same stock and prices as your eshop.
Skroutz, BestPrice, Shopflix and Public are Greece's big price-comparison sites and marketplaces, and each one reads your products from an XML feed. We build a feed for each from your eshop or Odoo, so prices and stock update on their own and you don't lose sales to wrong availability. Where a marketplace sends orders, we bring them straight into your software, invoice included.
WHY PRODUCTS AND ORDERS GET LOST ON THE MARKETPLACES
“In stock” on something that sold out
Stock updates on the eshop, but the marketplaces' XML is built once a day. A customer orders, and you cancel.
Products that don't show up
The MPN is missing, the category has only one level or the photo is too small, and the product sits unclassified for weeks.
Orders typed in by hand
Orders from each marketplace go into your software one by one, and then the invoice is issued, by hand again.
Three prices for the same product
The price changes in your software, but not on the eshop or on one of the marketplaces. You find out from the customer.
XML FEEDS RIGHT FIRST TIME
Each marketplace asks for the same data in a slightly different way. Skroutz and BestPrice, for example, use different availability values and a different price format. We build one feed for each, from the same data.
Prices including VAT, stock, the full category path, MPN and EAN, the manufacturer in the title, photos at the size they ask for: it all comes from your eshop or Odoo and updates automatically, not once a day.

ORDERS STRAIGHT INTO YOUR SOFTWARE
When you sell through the marketplace itself, Skroutz Marketplace for example, nobody needs to type the order in. Where the marketplace offers a connection (an API), we bring the order into Odoo within minutes, with the customer and its lines.
The invoice or receipt is issued from the order, with a VAT-number check when the buyer is a business, and goes out through your licensed e-invoicing provider. Stock drops everywhere, on the eshop and on the other marketplaces.
For shops that sell on marketplaces and on their own eshop at once, orders become invoices without anyone typing them in.

Monitoring
If a marketplace rejects the feed or the connection drops, we know before you do.
QUESTIONS
Do I need a different XML for each marketplace?
Usually, yes. Skroutz and BestPrice ask for the same data, but with different availability values and other required fields: Skroutz, for example, also asks for MPN, EAN, VAT, a description and quantity. Shopflix wants its own file, with exactly its own field names, plus weight, colour and shipping time. We build one feed for each, from the same data.
How often do they read the XML?
BestPrice reads it about every two hours, and Shopflix suggests updating every 30 or 60 minutes. Skroutz asks for the file to be rebuilt at least once a day, unless it's built at the moment they request it. We build it from live data, so it's always current.
Why don't some of my products show up?
Usually the MPN or EAN is missing, the category has only one level, or the photo is too small: Skroutz wants at least 1,000 pixels on one side. The free check shows these, and the Skroutz feed guide explains every field.
Does it work with WooCommerce?
Yes. We build the feeds from WooCommerce or from Odoo, whichever has the last word on stock. If you run both, see Odoo & WooCommerce.
Can you bring in my suppliers' catalogues too?
Yes. We merge your suppliers' XML and Excel files into one clean catalogue that feeds both the eshop and the marketplaces. See how in wholesale & distribution, and the five pitfalls of importing supplier XML. How it works: supplier XML feeds & dropshipping.
Can you work in English with our team?
Yes. Proposals, the connection map and handover notes are in English or Greek, and we talk to your Greek team and accountant in Greek.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the marketplaces and on whether you want the orders in your software too. Tell us where you sell and we'll write you a fixed price.
