Let's take a closer look at how to build your data feeds in no time for Marktplaats.nl and how this integration is going to make things easier for all online merchants selling their products in The Netherlands and Belgium.
Full category specifications for effortless category matching
Because Marktplaats.nl has several dozens of main categories that have their own set of sub-categories and corresponding field specifications, we have added specific presets for categorization to make the process straightforward. Matching your products to their taxonomy is going to be easier and faster because you no longer need to add custom fields and find all necessary specifications from the Marktplaats.nl documentation.
Processing reports for real-time insights
You will receive a report by email that tells you if the processing was successful, and in case it was not it will indicate all errors that might have occurred. With this real-time information, you can fix any error in your feed immediately.
When building your data feed for Marktplaats.nl we will help you to configure all fields according to the requirements of Marktplaats.nl. For example setting an allowed bid, which is different for a lot of sub-categories or setting the right shipping costs or delivery method.
