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 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.

Fees

Takealot is where the volume is. The admin is why sellers stall.

Loadsheets, warehouse stock vs lead time, success fees that never match the invoice. Most sellers stall before they start. The ones who push through often oversell, and risk the SLA or the account.

🚀 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.

📊 Fees that match the payout

Success fee, fulfilment, IBT and courier collection ride along with every order. Net margin is a fact, and the invoice in Xero or Cin7 can show it.
