Trusted by South African brands and distributors
Approved vendor, reviewed by Takealot sellers
We do our best work for brands and distributors who already have a system of record. If that’s you, most are live in under 5 days. If it isn’t, we’ll tell you upfront.
Not sure? Book the call. If we’re not a fit, we’ll say so in 20 minutes and point you somewhere better.
More shelves should mean more sales. For most brands and distributors it means more admin, more mistakes and another hire.
You sell the last unit in your shop and on Takealot at the same time. Now you’re cancelling orders and your seller rating takes the hit.
A price that works in your shop loses money on Takealot once the success fee, fulfilment and commission come off. Getting it right per channel, every time something changes, is a job in itself.
Every marketplace order and retailer PO gets captured again into Cin7, WooCommerce or your accounting system. Hours a day, and a chance for a typo on every one.
Takealot QC, Amazon catalogue rules, Makro loadsheets. Multiply that by every brand you carry, and the backlog never ends.
Before using Wherehouse, we had to manually upload all our Takealot orders. Instead of spending hours capturing transactions, our team can now focus on reviewing and reconciling orders.
No onboarding videos and no “good luck”. A real person connects your systems, sets up every business rule you run and stays on your account.
Day 1
20 minutes. We look at your stack, your range and your marketplaces. You get a straight yes or no.
Days 2 to 4
Shopify, Cin7, Zoho, Sage , plus Xero, QuickBooks or Zoho Books. We map your SKUs, prices, stock rules and the rest of your business logic, then run test orders before anything goes live.
Usually by day 5
Stock syncs in the background. Orders land in your hub and fees land in your books. Your named person stays on.
From there
Wherehouse reshapes titles, attributes and images for each marketplace and fills thin data so listings pass QC. Each marketplace’s QC sets the pace.
The worst outcome is a system your team has to work around. So we fit Wherehouse to your rules and your systems, and test it on your own orders before anything goes live.
No setup fee
Connecting your systems, mapping every rule and running test orders is part of onboarding.
Not on our list? Built free on Retail
If we commit to your system on the fit call, you give us a staging or test login and we build the connector at no charge.
Live in 14 days or month two is free
Counted from the day you give us access, new connectors included. Most sellers are live in under 5 days.
Nothing goes live untested
We run test orders first. Nothing automatic goes through until they come out right.
A named person, not a ticket queue
Giovanni Joubert
Founder, Wherehouse
Every Retail account gets a named person who sets you up and stays on. The founder is still hands-on.
“A special shoutout to [the Wherehouse] team for helping us sync and manage hundreds of products between our WooCommerce and Takealot.”
Mr Vinyl · Seller Success Network review
“They stay with it until we’re happy, not until the ticket is closed.”
DynamicCom · Seller Success Network review
You keep working where you work today. Wherehouse runs in the background and keeps stock and prices on every shelf in step.
Built for the many shapes and flows South African businesses run on.
Sell it on Takealot, in your shop or to a retailer, and the count drops on every channel that carries your stock. No oversells, no cancelled orders.
Marketplace orders land in Cin7, WooCommerce, Shopify , automatically. No retyping, no missed picks.
We reshape your catalogue for each marketplace and fill thin data, so listings are ready for QC.
Success fees, shipping and returns post to Xero, QuickBooks or Zoho Books, so your marketplace margins are real numbers.
Set a price rule per channel that covers its fees and commission, like Takealot at 12% above your store price. Change a price once and every channel follows.
The repricer watches the buy box (the default “Add to cart” offer shoppers see) and moves your price between the minimum and preferred price you set.
Repricer add-onPurchase orders from Yuppiechef, Superbalist, Takealot Supplier and Amazon Vendor flow straight into your ERP. Stay a preferred supplier without the paperwork.
Included on RetailDistributors and specialist retailers who run their whole marketplace business from the system they already had.

Seller Success Network review
“The amount of daily admin that Wherehouse has removed from our day-to-day business is spectacular. We couldn’t live without them. Selling through multiple channels has become manageable.”
Seller Success Network review
“The Xero automation is the best part. It just handles all our invoicing in the background so we don’t have to. It’s simple, it works, and it’s clearly built for the SA market.”
Seller Success Network review
“The stock syncing, custom price rules, and the ability to change prices for each marketplace directly from Wherehouse is absolutely incredible.”
Seller Success Network review
“The integration side has made our listing and fulfilment admin significantly lighter. But the part that actually matters day to day is the support.”
Seller Success Network review
“We use Wherehouse for our integration with DEAR inventory and we are very happy with the level of service and reliability of the Wherehouse integration.”
Wherehouse doesn’t replace your people. It takes the copy and paste off their desks, so each team gets back to the work you hired them for.
One connection to your stock system
Off their desk: Retyping orders and POs, and updating stock on every channel.
Instead: They open your next channel and look after your customers.
Off their desk: Loadsheets and QC fixes, one marketplace at a time.
Instead: They pick the best products to sell next.
Off their desk: Reworking prices on every channel each time a fee changes.
Instead: They decide where to push and where to hold margin.
Off their desk: Keying in fees, payouts and credit notes, and chasing stock Takealot can’t account for.
Instead: They close the month on real margins and claim what Takealot owes: R11,000 a month on average.
Off their desk: Guessing what to send to Takealot’s CPT, JHB and DBN warehouses.
Instead: They see what to reorder and what’s stuck, before a stockout costs sales.
Off their desk: Waiting for month-end to know what actually made money.
Instead: They ask ChatGPT or Claude what sold best this week, on clean data.
Done by hand, that’s two full-time people at least. Your team stays. The copy and paste goes. See what it costs
One plan for most brands and distributors, a smaller one if you’re still growing into it. Prices include VAT and run month to month.
Included in every plan
For stores with a hub and under about 1,000 marketplace orders a month.
For brands and distributors doing up to 2,500 marketplace orders a month.
For groups, multi-brand distributors and high, steady volume.
Your team still runs the business. This is the work that comes off their desks.
Done by hand: two full-time people, R40,000+ a month.
Retail: R4,799 a month
You’ve probably tried one of the first two. Here’s what each one handles, what it leaves on your team’s desk and what it costs.
| Spreadsheets and a hire | A sync tool Bought, or built in-house | Wherehouse | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your stock system | Any, because it’s all done by hand | A short list, or whatever your developer can connect | Shopify, Cin7 Core . Not on the list? On Retail, we build it free |
| Your business rules | Live in someone’s head | You change how you work to fit the tool, or code every rule yourself | The tool fits you: buffers, lead times, DCs and custom fields |
| Stock on every channel | Updated when someone gets to it | Synced between the systems it links, until an API changes | One stock number on every marketplace and retailer |
| Orders and retailer POs | Retyped into your system | Orders from the marketplace it links. Each new channel is another project | Marketplace orders and retailer POs land in your ERP |
| The right price per channel | Reworked by hand when fees change | Often one price everywhere | Price rules per channel that cover fees and commission |
| Listings | Loadsheets, one SKU at a time | Usually not included | Built from your data. 100 a month on Retail |
| Buy box repricing | Someone watching prices all day | Usually a separate tool, or another project | Repricer add-on on the same connection |
| Fees in your books | Keyed in at month end | Usually not, or totals only | Fees, payouts and credit notes in Xero, QuickBooks or Zoho Books |
| Who keeps it running | Your team, by hand, every day | You do. Build your own and you become a software shop instead of a selling shop | We do, so you stay a selling shop |
| Setup, and Black Friday | You hire, train and cover leave. Someone works late | Help docs, a ticket queue, or your developer on call | Done with you, live in under 5 days, then a named person |
| What it costs | R15,000 to R25,000 a month per person, before leave | A fee per connection or a developer’s salary, plus the work it leaves | R4,799 a month on Retail. No setup fee |
You can sync one stock number over a weekend. The hard part is everything after it, every single day. That last mile is our whole job.
Already using AI? Good.
Ask questions about your stock and sales in plain English, on top of data that’s already clean and in sync.
What sold best on Takealot this month, and how many days of stock do we have left?
BG-600 sold 184 (9 days left), BG-450 sold 121 (23 days left) and TONG-2 sold 96 (31 days left). BG-600 needs a reorder this week.
Sell the same stock in two places without sync and you’ll oversell. That means cancelled orders and a hit to your rating. So we always pair the two.
We list your range
From your store or ERP data. 25 to 100 listings a month included on a plan, then R5 per SKU.
We connect your stock
Your store or ERP stays the source of truth. Every marketplace follows it.
You sell without cancelling orders
Orders land in your hub, stock drops everywhere, fees hit your books.
Listing on its own?
We don’t sell it. Listing without sync is how oversells start.
Not well, and we’d rather be honest about it. Wherehouse works best when your stock lives in a store or ERP we can connect to. If you’re marketplace-only today, the Takealot and Makro seller portals will serve you better until you add one. When you do, call us.
For stock: Shopify, WooCommerce, Cin7 Core, Unleashed, Zoho, Vend and IQ Retail, among others. For accounting: Xero, QuickBooks and Zoho Books. On the selling side: Takealot, Amazon, Makro, Leroy Merlin, Bobshop and Loot, plus retailers like Yuppiechef, Superbalist, Takealot Supplier and Amazon Vendor. Not on the list? On Retail, if we commit to your system on the fit call, we build the connector at no charge.
See every connectorMost sellers are live in under 5 days, with all their business rules set up. Our promise is 14 days from giving us access: if we miss it, your second month is on us.
No. Connecting your systems, mapping your SKUs and syncing the first test orders are part of onboarding. On Retail, that includes building a new connector when your system isn’t on our list yet and we commit to it on the fit call. You pay your monthly plan once your account is live, plus any add-ons you choose.
How free connector builds workNo. Most teams keep working in Shopify, Cin7 or WooCommerce, and Wherehouse runs in the background. The dashboard is there when you want sync history, orders from every channel or marketplace analytics.
We keep syncing. If you average more than 2,500 a month over 12 months, we’ll talk about Enterprise. We never cut you off.
Never. We build software. We don’t sell products. We’ll never list against your range, and we never sell your data.
Yes. Growth is R1,099 a month for stores under about 1,000 marketplace orders. Move up to Retail when you’re ready.
