PrestaShop Freshdesk

Keep PrestaShop and Freshdesk updated automatically.

Today you open your shop’s admin, look at which orders came in and carry them over. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in PrestaShop lands in Freshdesk by itself, in the shape Freshdesk expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

Both sides

What each side expects

Common questions

Can you connect PrestaShop to Freshdesk?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of PrestaShop and Freshdesk, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.

Is a ticket created automatically in Freshdesk?

Yes. What arrives from PrestaShop becomes a ticket in Freshdesk for the right customer, so a question does not sit somewhere unanswered.

Does Freshdesk recognise the sender as an existing customer?

The sender is looked up by email in Freshdesk and attached to the existing contact; with no match, a new contact is created.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in PrestaShop?

It comes across, so Freshdesk matches what was actually settled and you correct nothing by hand.

What does connecting PrestaShop and Freshdesk 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 PrestaShop sync with Freshdesk?

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 if PrestaShop or Freshdesk 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 PrestaShop to Freshdesk?

You give Schakel access to PrestaShop and Freshdesk 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 PrestaShop and Freshdesk 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.
