Connect eBay
eBay sells you through auction and fixed price, across several sites like ebay.nl and ebay.de, and keeps the payout through managed payments with fees already deducted. Cross-border trade is the rule rather than the exception. Schakel reads your orders, returns and stock through the eBay API and puts it where it belongs: in your accounting at the right country rate, and in step with your own webshop.
What travels with eBay
-
Orders into your books
Every eBay order becomes a sales invoice with lines per item SKU, the buyer as a contact and the order number as reference. Auction and Buy It Now both come in.
-
Managed payments fees apart
The final value fee and other eBay costs are booked separately on their own ledger account, so your margin per order stays readable.
-
VAT per destination country
A sale through ebay.de to Germany gets the German rate, cross-border within the EU the destination rate, ready for your OSS return.
-
Returns and stock
A return handled through eBay becomes a credit invoice for the amount actually returned. Stock per SKU can stay in step with your own webshop.
Why connect eBay
- ebay.nl, ebay.de and other sites run through one connection.
- Managed payments fees sit apart, not folded into your revenue.
- Cross-border trade gets the right VAT rate per country.
- No more retyping from your eBay Seller Hub.
