Keep E-mail and Acumulus updated automatically.
This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in E-mail lands in Acumulus by itself, in the shape Acumulus expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

What each side expects
E-mail and Acumulus do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

Common questions
Can you connect E-mail to Acumulus?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of E-mail and Acumulus, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which VAT rate do my sales get in Acumulus?
The rate is set per line: 21%, 9% or 0%. Sales to Belgium and other EU countries get the rate of the destination country, ready for your OSS return.
Are commission and fees booked separately in Acumulus?
Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in Acumulus, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.
What does connecting E-mail and Acumulus 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 E-mail sync with Acumulus?
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.
What happens to a return or refund in Acumulus?
A return becomes a credit invoice in Acumulus for the amount actually refunded, not for the whole order, so nothing needs correcting afterwards.
What if E-mail or Acumulus 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.
How do I connect E-mail to Acumulus?
You give Schakel access to E-mail and Acumulus once and pick what should travel. We set it up together with you, so no technical knowledge is needed, and after that it runs by itself.
Missing something you need?
Tell us what E-mail and Acumulus should do for you. If it is not in here yet, that is usually because nobody has asked. We build on request and we reply within 24 hours.
