eBay in your central order management – not as a marketplace that is managed manually.
Integrating eBay – Custom and Seamless
eBay is one of the world's largest online marketplaces – a central sales channel for trading companies, manufacturers, and resellers. Businesses use eBay to list products, process orders, manage prices, and reach customers. For operationally complex companies with multichannel sales, eBay becomes relevant when offers, orders, and inventory should not be manually reconciled. We integrate eBay into custom enterprise software. No pre-made standard connection, no restricted plug-in – but a tailored integration that fits perfectly with your processes and your system.
What We Connect
| Integration Options | |
|---|---|
| 🔄 | Automatically create, update, and end offers from the central system |
| 📊 | Represent sales, performance, and fee overview in cross-channel reporting |
| 📄 | Automatically capture orders, assign them to the correct process, and provide shipping status updates |
| ⚡ | Event-driven workflows – e.g., updating inventory on order, notifying customer service on returns |
| 🔗 | Bidirectional data exchange between eBay, ERP, inventory management, shipping, accounting, and other systems |
How the Integration Works
We work directly with the eBay REST APIs – Browse, Sell, Fulfillment, Inventory, and Analytics. The integration is developed as a core component of your Operating System – no third-party middleware, no workarounds. What this concretely means:
| 🏗️ | Custom connection – built for your processes, not for the average |
| 🔄 | Automatic data flow – no manual offer adjustments or order transfers |
| 🗄️ | One data foundation – eBay data flows into your central system |
| 🛡️ | Secure and GDPR-compliant – based on OAuth2, encrypted, and documented |
Typical Use Case
A trading company with 40 employees sells through web shop, Amazon, and eBay – 2,000 active listings. Price changes are entered manually, orders are transferred to ERP via CSV, shipping confirmations are reported manually. Inventory levels regularly mismatch. Returns end up without a link to the customer file.
With the integration, eBay becomes a connected sales channel. Prices, descriptions, and availabilities sync automatically. Orders trigger order fulfillment in real-time. Shipping confirmations and tracking are automatically reported back. Inventory levels remain consistent across channels. Management sees sales, margins, and fees per channel in a dashboard.
Part of Your Operating System
eBay is one of the key marketplaces in e-commerce. However, if used in isolation, it remains another channel that is manually operated. Only as part of an integrated system does eBay unleash its full benefits – when offers are centrally managed, orders automatically trigger subsequent processes, and the marketplace operates within the company, not alongside it. We develop AI-powered Operating Systems for operationally complex companies. The eBay integration is one building block of that.
