Takealot sellers manage offers, stock and sales in the Seller Portal.
Takealot sellers manage offers, stock and sales in the Seller Portal. We connect the Seller API and statement reports to your accounting or ERP, so offer quantities stay accurate, sales arrive as orders and Takealot’s fees reconcile against your invoices.
We connect through Takealot’s Seller API and Seller Portal reports.
Typical clients: south African brands and retailers selling on the country’s largest online marketplace.
Takealot sells two kinds of stock: leadtime stock that you hold and ship when an order arrives, and stock you have already sent to Takealot’s distribution centres. Only the first should come out of your own available quantity when the offer updates. Integrations that treat both the same either oversell your warehouse or hide stock that Takealot is holding. We model both, and reconcile the seller statement so success and fulfilment fees land in the right accounts.
Six systems we connect to Takealot. Each has its own page with the field map and failure points.
A Sage 50 Takealot integration runs a small agent beside your Pastel data that sends leadtime stock to your Takealot offers and brings each sale and seller statement back into Sage 50 as invoices and fee journals.
Sage 50 + TakealotA Sage 200 Evolution Takealot integration sets each offer’s leadtime quantity from the warehouse you ship from, creates Takealot sales as Evolution sales orders for picking, and posts the seller statement against a Takealot customer account.
Sage 200 + TakealotA Sage 300 Takealot integration routes Takealot sales into Order Entry for the company and location that sells on Takealot, publishes leadtime stock from that location, and posts seller statements in rand to the right Accounts Receivable customer.
Sage 300 + TakealotA Sage Business Cloud Takealot integration posts each day’s Takealot sales as one tax invoice to a Takealot customer in Sage Accounting, posts the seller statement fees, and can update offer quantities from Sage’s quantity on hand.
Sage Business Cloud + TakealotA Xero Takealot integration posts Takealot sales to a Takealot contact in Xero as daily invoices, records the seller statement as fees and the payout against a Takealot clearing account, and stays within Xero’s API limits.
Xero + TakealotAn IQ Retail Takealot integration publishes leadtime stock from the branch or warehouse that ships to Takealot, allowing for till sales, and brings Takealot sales and statements into IQ Retail so stores and marketplace share one stock picture.

The connector is built and tested against test data or a copy of your company.
Both the old process and the connector run side by side until the numbers match.
Alerts, logs and a runbook, with monitoring plans from R2,500 a month.
Typical integration scopes. Final pricing depends on systems and complexity.
Two-system sync, a single workflow automation or a pilot integration.

A Takealot connector to one accounting system is usually an Essential connector. Full details on the API integrations page.
Yes. Takealot provides a Seller API for offers, stock and sales, alongside reports in the Seller Portal. We use the API where it covers the job and the reports for statements.
From the seller statement. Success fees, fulfilment fees and other charges are posted to the accounts your accountant chooses, so marketplace profit is visible.
Takealot owns the customer relationship, so orders are usually posted to a Takealot channel account rather than individual customers, which also keeps your POPIA obligations simple.
A Takealot connector to one accounting system or ERP is usually an Essential connector at R15,000–R35,000 once-off, 1–3 weeks after discovery. Several systems or channels move into the Integration hub tier, R45,000–R120,000.
