Shopify Monta

Keep Shopify and Monta updated automatically.

Today you check the Shopify admin for new orders and carry them over into the other system by hand. Refunds and partial cancellations only surface once something no longer adds up. This connector fixes that, and we build it on request: what happens in Shopify lands in Monta by itself, in the shape Monta expects. Tell us what you need and we agree exactly what should travel.

The link

What travels across the link

Everything this connector moves between Shopify and Monta, and how often.

  1. Inventory

    to Monta automatically

    Stock levels travel along into Monta, so warehouse and sales sit on the same count.

Both sides

What each side expects

Shopify and Monta do not describe the world the same way. This is what has to line up.

Shopify

Shopify thinks in orders with line items, a variant per line and a separate customer. Discounts, shipping and VAT sit as their own entries on the order rather than folded into the price.

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.

  3. 03

    We build and test

    You see the connector run on a few test records before anything becomes final.

What you need

  • A Shopify store you own or where you may install apps. The connector runs as an app inside your admin, so you sign in through Shopify and need no separate account.
  • An account you administer, with API credentials from its settings.

Where it runs

Common questions

Can you connect Shopify to Monta?

Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of Shopify 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.

What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in Shopify?

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

What does connecting Shopify 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 Shopify 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.

What if Shopify 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.

How do I connect Shopify to Monta?

You give Schakel access to Shopify and Monta 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?
