Features:

  • Trade Runner automatically creates listings on Trade Me and allows you to select which products you’d like to sell.
  • Orders and inventory across Trade Me and your e-Commerce store are kept in sync. When a product sells on Trade Me, your orders are sent back to your e-Commerce system for fulfilment. If you sell out of a product on your website, Trade Me will be alerted and your listing will be pulled.
