OpenCart Account Integration

Overview

In this article, you will learn how to integrate your OpenCart and Sellercloud accounts in order to post products, manage listings, and enable automatic updates.


Integrate with OpenCart

The PHP plugin should be deployed by your web developer or by Sellercloud Support.

  1. Place the DLL plugin on your server.
  2. Obtain FTP credentials.
  3. Place the PHP plugin on the FTP connected to your website. Deployment instructions are provided in the zipfile. You can also find the instruction link for OpenCart on the Plugins webpage.

Once the plugins have been deployed, you can enable your OpenCart authentication:
