Keep Otto and WooCommerce 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 Otto lands in WooCommerce by itself, in the shape WooCommerce expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

What travels across the link
Everything this connector moves between Otto and WooCommerce, and how often.
-
Orders
to WooCommerce automaticallyEvery order becomes an order in WooCommerce with line items, matched on EAN or SKU, so you handle it all from WooCommerce without retyping.
-
Inventory
to WooCommerce automaticallyA sale updates stock in WooCommerce, so you never sell the same last unit on two channels at once.
What each side expects
Otto and WooCommerce do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.
Otto
A marketplace supplies orders with their own order number and their own lines, plus returns and cancellations that arrive separately.
WooCommerce
WooCommerce runs on your own WordPress install, so your site has to be reachable from outside. Stock sits per product or per variation, and those variations need a recognisable SKU.

We build and test
You see the connector run on a few test records before anything becomes final.
What you need
- A seller account with API access, created from within the account itself.
- A WordPress site running WooCommerce where you are an administrator. In the WooCommerce settings you create a REST API key with read and write access.
Where it runs
Inside your Shopify admin, as an app. You sign in through Shopify, no separate account.

Common questions
Can you connect Otto to WooCommerce?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Otto and WooCommerce, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
What does the connector match products on in WooCommerce?
On EAN barcode or SKU. Those have to line up on both sides; anything that does not match automatically you map once by hand, and it is remembered after that.
Does the connector touch my existing WooCommerce orders?
No. Schakel only creates new orders in WooCommerce and leaves your existing ones alone.
Do I still have to log into Otto once the connector runs?
No. Once it runs, everything you now look up in the Otto seller account arrives in WooCommerce by itself. You only open Otto when you want to check something yourself.
What does connecting Otto and WooCommerce 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 Otto sync with WooCommerce?
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 Otto returns and cancellations?
Yes. Besides new orders, Schakel also sees returns and cancellations on Otto, so WooCommerce does not lag behind what actually sold.
What if Otto or WooCommerce 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.
