Connect Back Market
Back Market is the leading marketplace for refurbished and second-life electronics. Every listing carries a condition grade, statutory warranty applies and the return rate on electronics is naturally higher. On refurbished goods VAT often runs via the margin scheme. Schakel reads orders, returns and stock through the API and books the sale with the right VAT treatment, while your stock per condition stays in step with your own webshop.
What travels with Back Market
-
Orders with condition on the line
Every Back Market order becomes a sales invoice with the device and its condition grade on the line, the customer as contact and the order number as reference.
-
Margin scheme and VAT per country
Sales under the margin scheme are taxed over the margin, and sales to other EU countries get the right treatment per line for your return.
-
Stock per condition
Stock is kept in step per condition grade with Shopify and WooCommerce, so a sold device is deducted in the right grade without overselling.
-
Returns and warranty
With the higher return rate on electronics, a return becomes a credit note for the amount actually refunded, with the same VAT treatment as the sale.
Why connect Back Market
- The condition grade sits on the invoice line, not loose in the portal.
- The margin scheme is booked correctly on refurbished sales.
- Stock per condition stays in step across your channels.
- The high volume of returns is handled cleanly as credit notes.
