Each product has one stock level and one price. MarketplaceHub holds them and sends them to every Amazon marketplace you sell on. A sale on any channel lowers the Amazon quantity.

| Title and images | – | Not resent |
Stock and prices change often. Titles and images rarely do. So the two travel apart.
Price and quantity go to Amazon as a small update of their own. The full listing is not part of it.
We send what changed and nothing else. A price that did not move is not sent again.
When an item sells on eBay, Etsy or Shopify, the new quantity goes to Amazon. The whole listing is not sent again.
Listing content travels on its own. See Listings.
Every channel sells from the same number. Each Amazon marketplace can keep its own price.
Every channel sells from one number. So the last unit cannot sell on two marketplaces.
Listings are kept for each Amazon marketplace. Your price can differ between the UK and Germany, while stock stays shared.
Amazon accepts an update first and checks it later. We keep track until the answer comes.
We wait for Amazon’s result and attach it to the product it was about.
If Amazon refuses an update, you get a notification. It carries Amazon’s reason and is attached to that product.
Once you fix the data, only that product is sent again. Nothing else is resent.
Amazon does not send its own quantity back to change yours. A price moves on its own only through a rule you set.
MarketplaceHub holds the stock level and sends it to Amazon. Amazon’s own quantity never overwrites it.
Prices too: a price moves on its own only through a Smart Pricing rule. Its new price goes in the same small update.
With Multi-Channel Fulfillment, a store can take each SKU’s quantity from FBA. Amazon ships the orders.
Best when your stock already sits in Amazon’s warehouses.
Where the numbers come from, and where they go.
Connect Amazon, eBay, Shopify and Etsy in one place.
