Integrating Uphance with The Iconic Marketplace will help you spend less time in your Seller Center administration and help you leverage more advanced seller management. This integration works by allowing you to send your existing products on Uphance to The Iconic and pull orders from the e-commerce platform to your Uphance dashboard. This can be especially helpful if you operate a multi-channel strategy that includes The Iconic.
How to Integrate The Iconic Marketplace And Start Selling Via Uphance
To integrate Uphance with The Iconic, you’ll need to have your user accounts for both platforms handy. The following steps should help you get started without any hassle.
Prerequisites:
Update SKUs: You’ll need to ensure that you’ve updated your SKUs in Uphance before integrating with The Iconic Marketplace. This is crucial as you’ll need to align your SKUs on Uphance with what you have on The Iconic. A good start would be to ensure that your categories and subcategories on Uphance are properly assigned.
Account Information: You need an active plan with Uphance and an account on The Iconic marketplace to proceed with this integration.
Step 1: Retrieve your API and Account Information
Before integrating The Iconic with Uphance, you’ll need to log in to your seller center on The Iconic Marketplace.
Navigate to Settings.
Scroll to the User Section and copy the API Key from the list of users available. As a best practice, we recommend creating a separate user account for the integration with Uphance.
Alternatively, you could Retrieve the API key and User ID (Email Address) from Integration Management. The API key is essential for establishing a link between Uphance and your account on The Iconic Marketplace.

Step 5: Customize The Iconic
After integrating The Iconic with Uphance, you’ll need to make customizations to ensure that the information on The Iconic corresponds with what’s available on Uphance. For instance, if your Uphance inventory is labeled differently on The Iconic, you’ll want to ensure that they both align at this stage.
Select Uphance Channel. The Uphance channel determines how your orders from the Iconic Marketplace are controlled. It also determines how your seller account on The Iconic Marketplace interacts with Uphance. For instance, instead of using wholesale pricing, you can configure your Uphance channel setting to use MSRP rather than wholesale prices.
Select your preferred warehouse for The Iconic orders fulfillment.
Choose inventory to fulfill The Iconic Marketplace orders from. This is essential if you have different inventory categories from which you’d prefer to fulfill The Iconic Marketplace orders.
Select Iconic Payment Term. This is essentially concerned with how your buyers should pay for orders.
Align product categories by selecting the Uphance subcategory and the corresponding subcategory on The Iconic.
How to Process The Iconic Marketplace Orders Via Uphance
Processing The Iconic orders via your Uphance dashboard is straightforward. Once you’ve integrated and configured The Iconic, you can seamlessly process and manage orders from the Uphance dashboard.
Sending Products to The Iconic Marketplace (Compulsory Fields You Must Fill Out)
