Marketplace
Amazon and Shopify or Magento
Amazon listings are matched to Amazon’s catalogue by barcode or created with the attributes its category requires, and orders arrive through the Selling Partner API. Fulfilment is either your own (merchant fulfilled) or Amazon’s (FBA), and the integration has to know which, because FBA stock sits in Amazon’s warehouses and not yours.
For Shopify, Shopify’s own Marketplace Connect app covers many sellers. On Magento the common route is an extension such as M2E Pro. Custom work comes in with variations that don’t map to Amazon’s, bundles, several sellers’ accounts or regions, and orders that must reach an ERP or OMS rather than the store.
