Running an online store and selling products from Ikonka Wholesale? Soon, managing your product catalogue and orders will become much easier. With Base Connect, you'll be able to connect your online store directly to our wholesale platform, automatically synchronizing product information, stock levels and prices while sending orders to us without manual data entry.
Keeping your online store up to date can be time-consuming. Importing product files, checking stock availability, adjusting prices and forwarding orders all take valuable time. Every manual step also increases the risk of errors, such as selling products that are no longer available.
Base Connect simplifies these everyday tasks by automating data exchange between your store and Ikonka Wholesale, helping you spend less time on administration and more time growing your business.
What Are Base and Base Connect?
Base (formerly BaseLinker) is a Polish e-commerce management platform that brings multiple sales channels and business tools together in one place. It connects online stores, marketplaces such as Amazon, eBay and Allegro, shipping providers and accounting systems.
The platform is used by tens of thousands of online sellers in Poland and internationally.
Base Connect is a B2B integration solution within the Base ecosystem. It enables wholesale suppliers, manufacturers and online retailers to exchange essential business data automatically.
Instead of managing spreadsheets, sending emails or manually updating product information, suppliers and retailers can work with synchronized data through a single system.
For online retailers, this means simpler supplier management, fewer manual processes and more efficient daily operations.
How Does Base Connect Integration Work?
Once your store is connected to Ikonka Wholesale through Base Connect, information can flow automatically between both systems.
Here's how the integration works:
1. Access our wholesale product catalogue. Product names, descriptions, images, specifications and EAN codes from our wholesale assortment become available directly in your Base inventory.
2. Keep stock levels and prices synchronized. When product availability or wholesale prices change, the information is automatically updated in your system, reducing the need for manual imports.
3. Sell across multiple channels. List products in your online store or on marketplaces connected to Base and manage your sales channels from one place.
4. Send orders automatically. When a customer purchases a product, the order can be forwarded directly to Ikonka Wholesale without manual processing.
5. Track order progress. Order status updates are synchronized, allowing you to monitor fulfilment and keep your customers informed.
Ikonka Wholesale manages which products and wholesale prices are shared, while you remain in control of your own product listings, sales channels and retail pricing.
Base Connect can support both traditional wholesale purchasing and dropshipping, where products are shipped directly from the supplier to the end customer.
