Mergado Marketplaces - 43 - order overview

2024-10-29T23:00:00Z

In this release we bring users the long awaited functionality of order management in Mergado Marketplaces This is the first version of the order management functionality, where orders from online marketplaces can be downloaded to our app. In addition to this new feature, we have also added some other tweaks!

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Order Overview.
• Simplifying the matching of product identifiers for Allegro
• Info icons for validation messages
• A number of other minor improvements

More on selected changes:

Order overview
Now, in addition to an overview of all orders from Kaufland and Allegro, the app will also offer you:

• Link to the marketplace order
• Email alerts for new orders from marketplaces at the hours and days you select
• Option to download selected orders in CSV format with your chosen dates and column names

A thorough description of this new functionality can be found here.

Simplify product ID matching for Allegro
It was often confusing for new users to see the product identifier pairing for Allegro. With Allegro, you are required to pair at least one product identifier (EAN, ISBN, UPC, MPN), ideally an EAN code, which can then be used to create new product cards if needed. With the new display of identifiers, we want to make it easier for new users in particular to set up a new campaign:

Info icons for validation messages
We have added info icons to the most common validation messages to explain the error in more detail and the steps needed to resolve it:

Should you encounter any bugs or have ideas on how to further enhance the order management functionality, please feel free to contact us at our email address mergado@mergado.cz.

Mergado Marketplaces - 44 - deployment of Hungarian localization

2024-11-12T23:00:00Z

One of the last releases of the year is here, and besides the Hungarian localization you will find a lot of other fixes and improvements

Among the most important and visible changes for users are:

• Uploading Hungarian localization
• Solution to deactivate the marketplace offer when a product is sold out
• Display additional data immediately after the history entry
• Display of Allegro Business orders
• Adjust price display on order detail
• New validation message handling system
• Ability to enlarge the table for adding parameters to the full desktop
• Improved pagination
• A number of other minor improvements

More about selected changes:

Solution to deactivate marketplace offer when a product is sold out
You may have encountered an issue in the app when a product sold out directly through Allegro and Allegro automatically deactivated the offer itself. If the out-of-stock product did not make it into the availability feed and the product was restocked, the app did not activate the offer.

This issue is now resolved and if the availability feed changes to a positive value and the offer is marked as closed, the app will automatically activate the offer.

So if you want to manually deactivate some offers on Allegro, you need to terminate the offers directly through the Mergado Marketplaces app using the offer pause function.

:information_source.
Now you can find additional information for historical records in a shortened version right after the record text without having to click on the record detail.

Adjust price display on order detail and support displaying Allegro Business orders
Now you will see Allegro Business orders in the app with a special logo for better clarity and we have also changed the price display for items on the order detail. The prices will now be split into “price per item” and “total price”:

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.cz.

Mergado Marketplaces - 45 - GPSR application preparation

2024-12-08T23:00:00Z

In the last release of this year we focused mostly on preparing the app for the new EU regulation that will come into force on 13.12. See how you can prepare for GPSR with Mergado

Among the most important and visible changes for users are:

• Preparing app for GPSR (more here)
• Smart matching of feed values to Allegro enabled values for Hungarian
• Unable to delete campaign during re-generation
• A number of other minor improvements
• Improvements to the campaign creation wizard
  • Changing the display of the marketplace selection
  • New sales channel selection
  • Pre-population of connection and project when only one option is available

More about GPSR:

As of 13.12.2024 the EU General Product Safety Regulation (GPSR) comes into force, which applies to most consumer products (more here). Online marketplaces including Kaufland and Allegro require additional information from sellers as a result, and reserve the right to hide the seller’s offers if they fail to provide it

For Allegro, the instructions and safety information and the manufacturer’s details / details of the person responsible for marketing the product in Europe must be filled in at the offer level in the campaign settings:

For Kaufland, these elements are the name of the manufacturer / responsible person in the EU, CE marking, safety instructions, where these are filled in at the product card level.

See our guide here to learn how to add these details to your products on online marketplaces.

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 46 - retention of information about products deleted from the product feed for 30 days

2025-01-14T23:00:00Z

The first release of the year is here, and with it a lot of cool new features! We’ve listened to your requests and added frequently requested enhancements

Among the most important and visible changes for users are:

• Improvement of the help for each element in the app and rewriting of element names (e.g. from ‘STOCK’ to ‘Availability’) to make the app easier to work with.
• Addition of GPSR element ‘Products launched in EU before 13.12.2024’ for Allegro
• Store information about products deleted from the product feed for 30 days
• Adding warranty information for Allegro to sales documents
• Adding shipping group for Kaufland
• New ‘Marketplace Connection Status’ filter in campaign history event type
• New ‘Severity’ filter in campaign history

More on selected changes:

Adding GPSR element ‘Products launched in the EU before 13.12.2024’ for Allegro
Allegro has a new GPSR feature where you can now add information to your offers that the products were launched in the EU before 13.12.2024, when the GPSR regulation came into force.

If you have launched your products before this date, you do not need to fill in the GPSR information on your Allegro offers regarding safety information and details of the products and responsible persons.

In Mergado Marketplaces, you’ll find a new mandatory parameter for which you can either choose a single value for the entire campaign, or you can pair it to an element from the feed. When pairing to a feed, pay attention to the allowed values, which are “true”, “1”, “yes”, “yes”, “igen” and “false”, “0”, “no”, “no”, “nem”.

If products were placed on the EU market after 13.12.2024 and fall into a category covered by the GPSR, the relevant product safety and manufacturer/responsible person information still needs to be completed (more here).

Keep information about products deleted from the product feed for 30 days
Until now, the way our app worked was that once a product dropped out of your product feed, we closed the marketplace listing and once the product ever reappeared in your product feed, we created a new marketplace listing for that product.

We’ve now started keeping information about products deleted from the product feed for 30 days, which will allow us to link to the original offer on Allegro, which we will activate as available. This way you won’t lose the traffic your offer has received in the past.

If a product appears in the product feed later than 30 days, a new offer will be created on Allegro for the product.

Adding warranty information for Allegro to sales documents
When creating a campaign and in the campaign settings for Allegro, you can now also fill in warranty information. This is an optional sales document that you can prepare in the Allegro administration here and then pair it in our application.

Adding a shipping group for Kaufland
You can now specify a shipping group when listing your products on Kaufland.
If no shipping group is selected, the terms of your default shipping group will automatically be applied. You can create shipping groups directly in the Kaufland Seller Portal here.

If you wish to have different shipping groups for different offers, create product selections in the Mergado Editor for which you can then create separate campaigns in Mergado Marketplaces.

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 47 - possibility to change the query in campaign settings

2025-01-28T23:00:00Z

In the second release of this year we focused mainly on various optimizations and fixing minor bugs. But we also added the long requested feature of changing the queries in the campaign settings, which we will describe in more detail below

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• The ability to change product query in campaign settings
• Implementation of filtering in the order history section
• Specifying changes in the additional dates of historical records
• Optimize processes for creating and adding product cards to reduce the risk of duplicate offers
• Delete historical records older than 90 days
• A number of other minor fixes and improvements

More on selected changes:

Ability to change product query in campaign settings
In the campaign settings you now have the option to change the query of products you want to send to a given marketplace. After changing the selection and clicking “Save”, a confirmation window will pop up informing you to run a complete re-generation of the product feed. If you do not confirm to run the sync, the product query will not be changed.

Changing the query is not possible if you are in the process of creating or adding product cards or re-generating the product feed.

Implementation of filtering in order history section
We have added filtering capability to the order History section, so you can now filter historical records by marketplace, event type, severity and date:

Specifying changes in additional historical record data
If you have made any changes to your campaign settings, until now only the general section headings (e.g. “Marketplace” or “Mergado”) were showing up in the additional historical records data. Now you can find the specific documents or elements where the change has been made under “Edited section” in the campaign history:

Mergado Marketplaces - 48 - Allegro foreign markets and the possibility to send the lowest price for Kaufland

2025-02-23T23:00:00Z

In the February release, we focused mainly on Allegro’s ability to sell in foreign markets, smart price adjustment for Kaufland and better handling of product selections

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Allegro Foreign Markets.
• Adding an element for the lowest price on Kaufland
• Check the number of products in the query when partially reordering
• Close filter window after applying filter
• Unify data formats in the application
• Sort validation messages in descending order of frequency
• Validate an existing project in the Editor before creating a campaign
• A number of other minor fixes and improvements

More on selected changes:

Allegro foreign markets
If you want to list your offers in foreign markets in addition to your default sales channel, you need to add the shipping method to that country to the shipping price list you have associated with the offers in the app, in the Allegro Sales Center here. In this way, you will give Allegro the incentive to issue offers in those markets.

In Mergado Marketplaces, you can then see via flags which markets you have your bids exposed to and whether their exposure to foreign markets has been approved, is in the process of being approved, or has been rejected. You can also view the bids in each market by clicking on the flags in the bid overview. If the flag is greyed out, the bid is in the process of being approved.

The status of the foreign market exposure is updated in the status synchronization every 15 minutes

For product prices in foreign markets, Allegro pre-selects an automatic conversion based on the price for the default sales channel and the European Central Bank exchange rate. However, you can also use the app to send your own prices to these foreign markets by pairing them to an element from the feed. After the price is paired to an element from the feed and re-generated, the price will also be displayed in the offer overview. If you have selected the “Automatic price conversion by Allegro” option in the campaign settings, the price will not be displayed in the bid overview.

You can also use the two new filters on the Bid Overview “Foreign Sales Channels” and “Status on Foreign Sales Channels” to better determine the status of exposure in each market:

Adding an element for the lowest price on Kaufland
You can now pair the “Lowest price with VAT” element for Kaufland. Entering the lowest price will automatically activate Kaufland’s smart price adjustment feature. For retailers using the smart price adjustment feature for the first time, the Plus model is activated by default. More information can be found here.

Then at Kaufland, the lowest price can be found on the offer details:

Check the number of products in the query when partially regenerating
Until now, the Mergado Marketplaces app worked by checking the composition of products in the query only when a campaign was created or completely re-generated. So if a product just dropped out of the query but was still in the product feed, that product remained in the app. Problems then occurred especially with those campaigns that had product selections based on, for example, order check-in time, which dynamically changes every day.

However, we will now check for each re-generation whether the composition of the selection in the Editor has changed and adjust the products in Mergado Marketplaces and Allegro / Kaufland accordingly.

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 49 - stop selling hidden products and automatically adjust the description format for Allegro

2025-03-11T23:00:00Z

The spring weather is here and with it the new version of Mergado Marketplaces In the new version we will change the way we work with hidden products and in addition we have a number of improvements that will save you a lot of work when uploading products to marketplaces See below for more information on each change

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Removing hidden products from the app and ending given offers on marketplaces

• Automatically adjusting the description format for Allegro

• Offers statuses instead of the number of uploaded and unuploaded products on the campaign overview:
  

  

• Change “Incomplete” status to “Draft” for Allegro

• Display GTIN (EAN, ISBN, UPC, MPN) of products for orders and option to display this information in order export:
  

  

• Add validation message “The product card to which the offer is linked is incomplete and needs to have product data added to it in the ‘Product Cards’ section” to incomplete Kaufland offers for easier work in the application

• Search box next to category tree in product cards
  

• Adding new stock at Kaufland for remanufactured products (for selling remanufactured products, you need to contact Kaufland retailer support first)

  • Refurbished - Like new
  • Refurbished - Very Good
  • Refurbished - Good
  • Refurbished - Acceptable

• A number of other minor repairs and improvements

More on selected changes:

Removal of hidden products from the app
This change affects products that you have hidden in Mergado Editor using a rule. Until recently, Mergado Editor did not send us information via API about which products are hidden in the project. However, we now have this information available and so these products will no longer be displayed in Mergado Marketplaces, which means that their listings on the Allegro and Kaufland platforms will be discontinued.

Checking for changes in product hiding will be done as part of each feed re-generation.

Automatic modification of the description format for Allegro
One of the most common issues our users had was adjusting the format of the tooltips to match Allegro’s requirements. This is because product descriptions for Allegro must have HTML formatting, and Allegro only accepts a small number of selected HTML tags.

Now the Mergado Marketplaces application will automatically adjust the format of your descriptions to be accepted by Allegro So unauthorized tags or completely missing HTML formatting will no longer be a problem. Thanks to this new feature, it is also possible to include images in your Allegro descriptions.

For existing campaigns, the captions are only sent to Allegro if something changes in them. So if you want all your descriptions to take advantage of this functionality as soon as possible, we recommend running a complete product feed sync in the Mergado Marketplaces campaign settings.

Example image description:

Below you can see an example of a feed description and how the subsequent description looks on Allegro:

<h1>Test Caption</h1><p>Test Image 1:</p><p><img src="https://www.shopitak.cz/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/3_cup_forfoxsake_1.png" width="500" height="500" alt="" /></p><p>Test Image 2:</p><p><img src="https://www.shopitak.cz/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/sklo_vicko_1300x1300.png" width="500" height="500" alt="" /></p>

Mergado Marketplaces - 50 - search in product tabs and deactivate offers with negative availability

2025-03-25T23:00:00Z

In this release we focused on making some processes and other minor fixes less visible to users, but will ensure better operation of the whole application: gear: In addition, we have not forgotten to add a couple of tweaks that you can try for yourself

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Searching in product cards by product and category

• The ability to fill mandatory parameters in product cards for Allegro depending on the value of another parameter

• Disabling offers with negative values in the availability feed and displaying a validation message

• : arrow_forward: Reverse attempt to reactivate “with error” menus when correcting them as part of a partial re-generation

• A number of other minor fixes and improvements

More on selected changes:

Searching in product cards by product and category

In the section of creating and adding product cards you can now search You can search only between paired categories (both by category name from the feed and by marketplace category) and also by name, EAN or ID of those products that fall into the paired category and you need to create a product card for them.

The possibility to fill in mandatory parameters in product cards for Allegro depending on the value of another parameter

In some categories you may have encountered parameters when creating or adding product cards, which depend on the value of another parameter. For example, “Type of medical device”, where if you answer “no” you do not need to fill in the other two parameters, but if you answer ‘yes’ you need to fill in “Type of medical device” and “Manufacturer of medical device”. So our application now automatically responds to the need to fill in these elements:

Deactivating offers with negative values in the availability feed and displaying a validation message

Do you have negative values in your availability feed? We will now treat such products similarly to when availability is completely missing in the availability feed. If an offer has a negative availability value, the offer will be terminated in the marketplace and the error message “There is a negative availability value for the offer that cannot be sent to the marketplace” will appear in the app. Once a positive availability value appears in the feed, the offer will be automatically activated.

>Why did we make this change? Allegro and Kaufland do not allow negative availability values for offers

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 51 - new app design

After a little break, we bring you Mergado Marketplaces in a new coat In addition to the new look of the app, we also bring you tweaks to the Mergado Marketplaces feed format and the ability to expand to two new markets

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• New Mergado Marketplaces app design
• The ability to list offers in France and Italy via Kaufland
• Mergado Marketplaces feed format
• A number of other minor fixes and improvements

Ability to list offers in France and Italy via Kaufland
With the help of the Mergado Marketplaces app, you can already prepare for the launch of the two new marketplaces. Kaufland will be opening its online marketplaces in France and Italy at the end of the summer

In Mergado Marketplaces, you simply create a new campaign by selecting one of the desired markets in the second step of the wizard:

Mergado Marketplaces feed format
Mergado Editor added a new Mergado Marketplaces feed format a few weeks ago. So if you choose this format as output when creating a new project, you can use our new tweaks for this format:

1. When you create a new campaign in Mergado Marketplaces, we will pre-pair elements for this feed format in step 3 of the campaign creation wizard.
2. If you do not have an availability feed directly from your e-commerce solution, you can use your feed in Mergado Marketplaces format to synchronize both product and availability data.

So you don’t need to create an availability feed in Mall or Heureka format, just use one feed for both purposes

New Mergado Marketplaces app design
And the icing on the cake is the new design of our app, which is accompanied by a number of UX improvements and optimization of our code, which will make our app a bit easier to work with

If you have any problems or suggestions for improvement, please feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 53 - Two-Way Order Integration with WooCommerce & Category Pre-Matching for Product Cards

2025-06-18T11:30:00Z

We’ve taken our first step into the world of two-way order synchronization
The first e-commerce platform we’ve chosen to integrate with is WooCommerce
But that’s far from everything this release has to offer!

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Two-way order integration with WooCommerce
• Improved filter design on the offers overview
• Pre-filled values when editing parameters during product card creation or update
• Bulk category pre-matching during product card creation
• A number of other minor fixes and improvements

Two-way order integration with WooCommerce
We’re launching our first integration with an e-commerce platform. You can now connect your WooCommerce store to marketplaces via Mergado Marketplaces. Once connected, orders from Allegro or Kaufland will be automatically transferred to WooCommerce every 5 minutes. When you update an order in your shop (e.g., mark it as shipped), the status will sync back to the marketplace. More info is available in our guide here.

Bulk category pre-matching during product card creation
We know that creating product cards is time-consuming, so we’re always looking for ways to make the process as smooth as possible. That’s why we’ve added a “Suggest Categories” feature to the product card creation section.

This function suggests the three most relevant categories from the Allegro or Kaufland category tree. You can also cancel the suggestions and search for the most suitable category yourself using the tree or search tool

In case of any issues or suggestions for improvement, don’t hesitate to contact our Mergado Support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces – 54 – Improvements to Product Cards and Order Integration

2025-07-30T10:30:00Z

Addition of the “Eco participation fee” element for FR Kaufland
To list your offers on the French sales channel, some categories now require the “Eco participation fee” element to be filled in.

Mergado Marketplaces – 55 – GPSR Changes on Allegro and Order Import into Pohoda

2025-07-30T08:30:00Z

In this release, we’ve primarily focused on adapting our extension to the upcoming GPSR changes on Allegro (you can find more information here in the section “IMPORTANT CHANGES ON ALLEGRO STARTING AUGUST 2025”). Please pay close attention to these updates to prevent your listings from being deactivated That said, we’re also bringing you some exciting new features in our Orders section

Here are the most important and visible updates for users:

• XML feed for importing orders into the POHODA system
• New order statistics section
• Allegro GPSR changes:
  • Removal of the element “Products placed on the market in the EU before 13.12.2024”
  • Removal of the option “Do not send safety information” under the “Warnings and safety information” element
  • Auto-filling GPSR details from Allegro product cards if not manually entered for new campaigns
• E-shop name added to order notification messages
• Improved display of campaigns and orders for small screens and mobile devices
• Updated Allegro product statuses (several new status options added)
• Various smaller fixes and improvements

More about selected updates:
XML feed for importing orders into the POHODA system
In Mergado Marketplaces, you can now generate an order feed for the POHODA accounting system to import new orders. Only orders with the status “Not shipped” will be included in the import. For more details, check out our article here.

Allegro GPSR changes
Starting in August, Allegro is introducing changes to how GPSR (General Product Safety Regulation) information is filled in on its platform. Until now, you could use the element “Products placed on the market in the EU before 13.12.2024”, which allowed you to skip entering additional GPSR details.

However, sellers have reportedly been overusing the options “Products placed on the market in the EU before 13.12.2024” and “Do not send safety information”. In addition, Allegro has received feedback from the regulator that all online listings should include product safety details and manufacturer information. As a result, Allegro has decided to remove both of these options. For all new products, you will now be required to enter complete safety information and manufacturer details — regardless of the date the product was first placed on the market.

The ban on using “Do not send safety information” will take effect on August 4th. The removal of “Products placed on the market in the EU before 13.12.2024” will take effect on August 12th

When creating a new campaign in Mergado Marketplaces, if you leave the GPSR fields empty, we will attempt to pre-fill them using product data from Allegro’s product catalog. These are AI-generated details provided by Allegro, so we strongly recommend reviewing this information carefully before publishing.

Please note: If you already have existing listings on Allegro, it is currently not possible to fetch GPSR data from Allegro’s product cards via API. For all existing listings, you must enter the GPSR details manually, either directly in Mergado Marketplaces (in the campaign settings) or by using the Allegro AI-generated data.

How to add AI-generated data for GPSR via Allegro Sales Center? Follow these steps: “Assortment → My Assortment → select all → PRODUCT → Safety information / Manufacturer details”. There you can click:

• Complete with suggested manufacturers’ details
• The product includes safety information — add suggested content

You can find a full overview of the changes in our article here.

New Order Statistics Section
We’ve added a brand-new ‘Statistics’ page to the Orders section, giving you a quick overview of your order performance across all active channels.

In one place, you can now track the total number of orders, their total value, average order value, and return rate. The metrics are accompanied by a time-series graph and clear aggregated totals. Thanks to a multi-element filter, you can easily select specific marketplaces, order statuses, or time periods you’re interested in. Below, you’ll also find an unfiltered channel breakdown for the selected marketplace over the past month.

This marks the beginning of our development of a new reporting module – more features are coming soon!

Mergado Marketplaces – 56 – Import of orders into Shoptet Premium

2025-08-20T08:30:00Z

In this release, we bring you another big update From now on, in Mergado Marketplaces you can connect to Shoptet Premium and activate import of orders directly into your e-shop system! We have also made small improvements to the order import into the POHODA system, and once again tried to make filling in GPSR information on Allegro easier by adding the option of a unified value for the entire campaign

The most important and user-visible changes include:

• Import of orders into Shoptet Premium
• Addition of a unified value for the entire campaign for “Warnings and safety information” on Allegro
• Extended order history with filtering by platform
• Added filter “Products with missing category” to the product cards section
• Improved responsiveness of Mergado Marketplaces
• A number of other smaller fixes and improvements

More details on selected changes:

Addition of a unified value for the entire campaign for “Warnings and safety information”
Since 12 August, it is no longer possible on Allegro to use the label “Products placed on the EU market before 13.12.2024”. For all new goods, it is now mandatory to fill in full safety information and manufacturer details – regardless of their date of placement on the EU market. . Since Allegro has forbidden the use of the value “Do not send safety information”, we have added the option in Mergado Marketplaces to fill in the element “Warnings and safety information” in bulk for all products via a text field.

If you have previously used the option “Do not send safety information” and have not yet entered other details in Mergado Marketplaces, our extension still sends the value “NO_SAFETY_INFORMATION” in the background. This value will now be pre-filled in this new field, so you can either add your own text or completely disable sending this value and try to generate GPSR data via Allegro Sales Center.

You can find the guide for filling in GPSR data here.

When choosing a value for the entire campaign, please enter the text without HTML formatting and with a maximum length of 2000 characters.

---

Import of orders into Shoptet Premium
Is your e-shop running on Shoptet Premium? From now on, you can use Mergado Marketplaces to import orders from marketplaces directly into your e-shop solution Orders are synchronized every 5 minutes, and new orders are imported into Shoptet with the status “Not sent”. Status synchronization from Mergado Marketplaces to Shoptet works as follows:

• “Not sent” “Unprocessed”
• “Sent” “Order completed”
• “Cancelled” “Cancelled”

To start synchronization, you need to:

1. Create a connection

• API Token: Generate your API token in your Shoptet administration under ‘Private API’ in the ‘Connections’ section.

2. Activate order synchronization

• In the Activation section under Orders, choose the marketplaces from which you want to synchronize orders and select Shoptet Premium, then save the changes.

Important information:

• Products are matched to your Shoptet catalog based on the match of “Product ID” in Mergado Marketplaces and “Product code” in the Shoptet catalog.
• VAT rate for products matched to your catalog is applied directly from it. For unmatched products, the default VAT rate from your Shoptet administration is used.
• To import orders in foreign currencies, you must enable foreign currencies in your Shoptet administration under “Settings → Basic Settings → Currency”.

If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvement, feel free to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 57 - importing orders to Shoptet Premium

In the past period, we focused on several pain points that users pointed out We have once again improved the simplicity of browsing in Mergado Marketplaces

The most important and visible changes for users include:

• Support for nested elements in feed element pairing

• New offer status “Active with error”

• Option to disable price synchronization for a campaign

• Improved UI behavior for smaller displays/phones

• Email notification of incorrect orders

• Improved handling of archived offers (Allegro/Kaufland)

Support for nested elements in feed element pairing

Previously, we did not work with nested PARAM elements in feeds – the only way was to first create separate elements in Mergado Editor and copy the values from the nested elements into them. Now you can find PARAM elements with a drop-down arrow directly in the element selection.

New offer status: Active with error

Until now, you could see “Active,” “With error,” or “Paused.” However, in real operation, a scenario arose where the offer is still active on the marketplace, but our application can no longer update it due to a serious error (e.g., incorrect data, change in the structure of the offer on the marketplace, etc.).

Therefore, we are adding the status “Active with error,” which:

• indicates that the item is active on the marketplace, but we cannot perform further updates

• helps to quickly identify risky offers

Option to disable price synchronization at the campaign level

If you use a different solution for pricing (e.g., an external pricing service or another product), you can now disable price synchronization from Mergado Marketplaces for your campaign.

Email notification about incorrect orders

Notifications will now include an option to automatically send an email when an error occurs during order transfer between platforms (EP or marketplace).

Improved behavior for archived offers (Allegro / Kaufland)

The marketplace (Allegro/Kaufland) may archive/delete an offer after a certain period of time (e.g., Allegro archives >60 days, Kaufland deletes after 3 months with 0 availability). Until now, this offer ended in an error and did not reload itself until it was manually regenerated.

We will now automatically restore or recreate archived offers, so you no longer have to deal with this error.

Mergado Marketplaces – 58 – Bulk pausing of sales and new campaign statistics

2025-10-01T10:30:00Z

The main season is just around the corner, and we’ve prepared several new features that you will surely find useful during this period

Among the most important and user-visible changes are:

• Bulk pausing of offers on Allegro and Kaufland
• VAT rates for Allegro
• New campaign statistics
• Notifications when product feed synchronization fails
• Extended order history in order details
• Switching between order details using arrows
• Improved responsiveness of Mergado Marketplaces
• A range of other minor fixes and improvements

More about selected changes:

Bulk pausing of listings on Allegro and Kaufland
During the summer holidays and Christmas season, sellers often asked us whether it was possible to temporarily pause sales in our extension. We’ve now added this feature so you’ll be ready for this Christmas

You can find the option to pause sales in the campaign settings. When sales are paused, all active offers will be ended. At the same time, product feed and availability synchronization will be suspended.

Please note that sales can be paused for a maximum of 60 days, since Allegro archives ended offers that haven’t been updated for more than 60 days

VAT rates for Allegro
When selling on Allegro, you can now choose the type of invoice and VAT rates for each country. Invoices with VAT and the stated VAT rate are, among other things, a requirement for listing your offers on Allegro Business (more about the conditions here).

The chosen VAT rate does not affect the price entered in the field “Price with VAT.”

For all fields, you can decide whether to set a fixed value or map them to an element from the feed. For invoice type, you can choose:

• No invoice – when mapping to feed, enter the value ‘NO_INVOICE’ in the element
• Invoice with VAT – when mapping to feed, enter the value ‘VAT’
• Margin VAT invoice – when mapping to feed, enter the value ‘VAT_MARGIN’
• Invoice without VAT – when mapping to feed, enter the value ‘WITHOUT_VAT’

For VAT rate, enter a numeric value without a percentage sign, e.g., 21. The VAT rate must match the allowed values for the given market.

New campaign statistics
We’ve prepared an improved campaign statistics section for you. It now includes:

• Development of listings over the past month – overview of the total number of offers and their statuses over time
• Overview of faulty products – breakdown by error type and by inactivity period
• Overview of the product card listing status with the number of missing parameters
• Seller rating (Allegro only)

If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, don’t hesitate to contact our Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.

Mergado Marketplaces - 59 - Automatic listing of product cards for new products

2025-10-16T09:45:00Z

In today’s release, we’re introducing a feature that many sellers have been asking about for quite some time. So, we’ve decided to finally bring you automatic product card listing

Among the most important and visible changes for users are:

• Automatic listing of product cards for new products
• Improved price synchronization suspension (if it’s a completely new offer, the price will still be sent to Allegro even when price synchronization is paused)
• Activation of paused offers that were archived or deleted on the marketplace (we’ll now attempt to create a new offer in such cases upon activation)
• Adjustment of the “Seller rating” field in campaign statistics (the chart has been updated and improved in line with Allegro’s changes to seller ratings)
• New error log entry in the order detail history (when the same information is changed simultaneously on two platforms)
• A number of smaller fixes and improvements

More about selected changes:
Automatic listing of product cards for new products
In the product card creation section, you can now tick the option “Fill in for new products” when setting a parameter for the entire column — both for required and optional parameters. Once this option is enabled for all required parameters, the “Activate automatic listing of new products” button will become available.

When you activate automatic listing of new products, the creation of product cards will immediately start for all unlisted products with filled-in required parameters. Please make sure all parameters you want to send to the marketplace are properly completed. Once the products are successfully listed, it’s no longer possible to edit product card details via the app.

You can disable automatic listing for new products at any time. If an error occurs during the automatic listing process for a particular product card, you’ll still need to correct the data according to Allegro’s validation message and try to list the product manually.

In case of any issues or suggestions for improvement, don’t hesitate to contact our Mergado Customer Success team at mergado@mergado.com.

The most important and user-visible changes include:

• Notification for Active Offer Drop
• Campaign statistics extended with a link to the list of offers and other small improvements

More about selected changes:

Notification for Active Offer Drop
A new optional notification called “Drop of Active Offers” has been added to the Notifications section. If the number of active offers in a campaign drops significantly (by 25% or more), the system will automatically send a warning email. The email alerts you to the drop in active offers and includes a direct link to the affected campaign. You can enable or disable this notification in your settings as needed.

Mergado Marketplaces – 61 – Shopify integration for order synchronization and the ability to edit listed product cards

2025-11-18T13:00:00Z

Just in time for the peak season, we’re bringing you two major updates. Not only have we added another e-commerce platform for order synchronization, but we’ve also introduced the ability to edit your successfully listed product cards afterwards

The most important and user-visible changes include:

• Order synchronization for Shopify
• Ability to edit listed product cards
• Extension of certain notifications to Mergado Messages (specifically “Drop in active offers” and “Errors in order synchronization”)
• Improved responsiveness of Mergado Marketplaces
• Several smaller fixes and improvements
• Added validation for empty elements in campaign creation and settings

More about selected changes:

Order synchronization for Shopify
If your e-shop runs on Shopify, you can now enable synchronization of orders between marketplaces and your e-commerce platform. Once connected and activated, orders from Allegro or Kaufland are automatically transferred to Shopify every 5 minutes. When you update an order in your shop (e.g., mark it as shipped), the status is synchronized back to the marketplace.

A detailed guide on how to create the Shopify connection and activate order sync is available here.

Ability to edit listed product cards
Have you successfully listed your product cards, only to realize that one of the parameters was filled in incorrectly? Or do you simply want to add more optional parameters to your product cards? You can now do all of this directly in Mergado Marketplaces

In the new “Edit listed cards” section, all your successfully created product cards will gradually appear. Products are divided into categories just like in the product card creation section. After making at least one change, the “Suggest changes to product cards” button becomes available. For both Allegro and Kaufland, only a proposal for a product card change is sent, and it is up to the marketplace whether they accept or reject it.

For Allegro, after clicking “Suggest changes to product cards”, a window appears where you can choose whether you want Allegro to inform you about the result of the change request (the result will be sent to the email associated with your Allegro account). For Kaufland, you need to check the result directly in the Seller Portal.

A seller can send only 100 product card change proposals per day on Allegro. Use this functionality wisely—otherwise Allegro may block your account. Kaufland has no such limitation.

If you encounter any issues or have suggestions for improvements, feel free to contact Mergado support at mergado@mergado.com.
