Common questions
Can you connect WooCommerce to Informer?
Yes. Schakel connects through the official APIs of WooCommerce and Informer, so you install nothing on your own server and nothing travels outside those two parties.
Which VAT rate do my sales get in Informer?
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 Informer?
Yes. Commission, shipping and other fee types each land on their own ledger account in Informer, rather than in one lump sum, so your margin stays readable.
What happens on a refund or partial cancellation in WooCommerce?
It comes across, so Informer matches what was actually settled and you correct nothing by hand.
What does connecting WooCommerce and Informer 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 WooCommerce sync with Informer?
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 Informer?
A return becomes a credit invoice in Informer for the amount actually refunded, not for the whole order, so nothing needs correcting afterwards.
What if WooCommerce or Informer 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.
