How do Google Sheets and IQ Retail work together?

You pick the system of truth (usually the ERP or store for stock). Wherehouse keeps Google Sheets and IQ Retail in step: stock, orders and pricing flow with your rules, so you are not recapturing data between them. A dedicated account manager sets this up with example orders first.

Is this a one-off file, or does it stay updated?

It stays updated. The point of connecting Google Sheets through Wherehouse is that stock and pricing keep moving with the rest of your channels, instead of a file that was true last Tuesday.

Does IQ have to move to the cloud?

No. IQ is typically on-premise. The connection points at your server. We will talk through network access during onboarding, because that is the real prerequisite, not a replatform.

Can I choose which branch feeds Takealot?

Yes. IQ has branches. Stock can be pulled per location so the marketplace follows the branch you actually pick from.

Is there a setup fee?

No. There are no setup fees on any plan. During onboarding we ingest your catalogue and sync a couple of test orders and products, so you know it works before you rely on it. You only pay once the account is live. Billed monthly. Cancel any time.

How long does onboarding take?

Usually 1 to 10 business days, depending on how many platforms you connect and how specific your rules are. A dedicated account manager sets it up with you. We run specified example orders first. Nothing automatic goes through until those are right.

Do I have to live in the Wherehouse dashboard?

No. Most sellers keep working in the store, ERP or seller portal they already know. Wherehouse runs in the background. The dashboard is there when you want one view of stock, orders, fees and sync history.

Google Sheets & IQ Retail integration

Connect Google Sheets and IQ Retail without the double work.

Two systems, one picture:

Two platforms should not mean two jobs.

Every extra login is another place to update stock, recapture orders and reconcile fees. That is how overselling and messy books start. Google Sheets and IQ Retail should share one picture, with your rules on top.

🔄 Same stock as every other channel

The Google Sheets feed follows the system of truth you already run.

🏷️ Pricing rules travel with it

Uplifts, rounding and per-channel prices can apply to Google Sheets without a second spreadsheet.

📦 Branch stock drives the web

IQ stock per location can decide what Takealot, Makro and your store are allowed to sell.

Your rules, not a generic sync

How it works

Connect both

Your Google Sheets account and your IQ Retail account. You pick which one holds the truth.

See the flow

Stock, orders and pricing should move one way, on purpose. We map that to how you already operate, not a generic template.

Apply your rules

Buffers, price uplifts, which SKUs are allowed. A rule can apply to one platform and leave the other alone.

Stay in step

Google Sheets and IQ Retail keep sharing the live picture in the background.
