Keep eBay and Monta updated automatically.
Today you sign in to the seller account, look at what sold and carry it over by hand. What you already processed you track somewhere else. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in eBay lands in Monta by itself, in the shape Monta expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

What each side expects
eBay and Monta do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
eBay
A marketplace supplies orders with their own order number and their own lines, plus returns and cancellations that arrive separately.
Monta
An operational system wants complete data: an address that is right, a product that exists, and clarity on exactly what goes out the door.

Common questions
Can you connect eBay to Monta?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of eBay and Monta, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Does Monta need a complete address, and what if it is wrong?
Monta needs a full delivery address to make a label. If the country and postcode do not match up, that shipment is held and shows in the log, rather than a wrong label coming out.
Can I choose the carrier in Monta myself?
Yes. Which carrier and shipping method Monta uses you set there; Schakel only hands the shipment over complete.
Do I still have to log into eBay once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the eBay seller account arrives in Monta by itself. You only open eBay when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting eBay and Monta cost?
You start free and only pay once the connector is really running. After that the same tiers apply as for any other connector, based on how much runs through it each month.
How often does eBay sync with Monta?
That depends on your tier: hourly on the free tier up to real time on the unlimited tier. You can always start a sync yourself as well.
Does the connector also pick up eBay returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on eBay, so Monta does not lag behind what actually sold.
What if eBay or Monta is briefly unavailable?
Nothing gets lost. Schakel retries later and the log shows exactly what happened, so at most you notice something coming through a little later.
Missing something you need?
