How do Takealot and Cin7 Core work together?

You pick the system of truth (usually the ERP or store for stock). Wherehouse keeps Takealot and Cin7 Core 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.

Do I still need the Takealot seller portal?

Yes. You keep owning the seller account. Wherehouse keeps stock, orders and fees flowing through it, and can list and reprice without you living in the portal. Think of us as the operator layer, not a replacement marketplace login.

Can you list my catalogue on Takealot?

Yes. We take the product data you already have, reshape it for Takealot, and submit in bulk. R5 per SKU, once-off. Failures to submit are refunded. Auto-listing is best-effort: most sellers see 90%+ success, but Takealot QC can still fail a row.

How do you stop overselling on Takealot?

Stock updates from the store or ERP you pick as truth. You can hold a buffer on Takealot so another channel can still sell the last units. Overrides can force a SKU out of stock on Takealot without touching Makro.

What about Takealot fees and stock recon?

Per-order fees come through with the sale so profit and accounting are real. On the recon side, we can read Takealot’s monthly sheet and help you build a compliant claim for inventory they cannot account for, instead of leaving it.

Can you win the Takealot Buy Box?

The repricer watches competitor prices and pushes a winning price through your own seller account. Fixed band, or cost-based from cost plus fees to a profit target. Never below your floor. If we cannot win profitably, we hold.

Is this Cin7 Core or Cin7 Omni?

Cin7 Core (the product formerly called DEAR). Cin7 Omni is a different system. If you are on Omni, tell us up front.

Will you replace our Cin7 to Xero integration?

No. Wherehouse writes the sale into Cin7 with the right codes. Cin7’s own Xero connector does the ledger posting. Your accountant keeps that motion.

Connect Takealot and Cin7 Core without the double work.

Two systems, one picture:

Takealot and Cin7 Core stay in step: stock, orders and pricing flow with the rules you already run, so adding a channel does not add a second admin job.

Fees

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. Takealot and Cin7 Core should share one picture, with your rules on top.

🚀 Whole range live, in days

Pick products, pick Takealot, send. AI fills thin titles and attributes so listings are ready for QC. If the page already exists, we attach your offer instead of creating a duplicate.

🔄 Lead time and DC stock stay honest

Takealot does not fulfil every line the same way. We keep lead time, DC and dropship distinct, so picking and the books don't get tangled.

🛍️ Sales, not spreadsheet imports

Channel orders become Cin7 sales (customer, invoice, payment, optional pick/pack/ship). Your warehouse keeps working in Cin7.

Your rules, not a generic sync

How it works

Connect both

Your Takealot account and your Cin7 Core 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

Takealot and Cin7 Core keep sharing the live picture in the background.
