About Selling on Website

Overview

Shopping Cart Websites are platforms designed to facilitate and manage the process of online purchases. They store e-commerce marketplaces and serve as virtual shopping carts, where customers can add items they want to purchase, and then proceed to checkout to complete their transactions. Sellercloud integrates with such Shopping Cart Websites to seamlessly facilitate product listings, inventory synchronization, order processing, and data management. Sellercloud Shopping Cart Integrations are of two types – Core Integrated Websites and Plugin Websites.

Sellercloud Core Integrated Websites

Sellercloud core software incorporates several Shopping Cart Websites:

• Shift4Shop (3dCart) – Website integration established via Shift4Shop’s API. Core or plugin cart integrations are both available. 
• AspDotNetStoreFront – Integration established via AspDotNet Storefront API. 
• Magento – To integrate with Magento, you should create a webservice user and role on Magento and configure Sellercloud’s webservice access. Also, your web developer or Sellercloud Support must place the PHP plugin on the FTP connected to your website. Select Magento General settings, from your company’s Toolbox to enter Magento Credentials and to define related Options and Controls. The Magento Settings have their own separate page in the Company’s toolbox, and they are not configured on the Website General page.
• Volusion – Cart integration established via Volusion’s API.
• Yahoo Stores – Website integration done via Yahoo Stores API. Navigate to your Yahoo Store Control Panel, to configure the API settings, Order Notifications and Real-time Inventory. Select Yahoo General settings, from your company’s Toolbox to enter Yahoo API token and to define related settings.
