The problem

The middleware no longer fits. Switching feels risky.

You pick a middleware once, often for your first big marketplace. Then more marketplaces come along, the catalog grows, and the bill grows with it. Still, few brands switch, because nobody knows what will go offline in the process.

  1. Costs grow with revenue.

    If you pay a share of revenue, every good week gets more expensive, without any extra work.

  2. Every change is a ticket.

    A new attribute, a new rule, a new marketplace: request, wait, follow up. New products take days to go live.

  3. Data maintained twice.

    Whatever is in your store, you maintain again in the middleware: separate fields, separate exports, separate errors.

  4. The fear of switching.

    Listings offline, rankings and reviews gone, orders duplicated or lost. So you stay, even though it no longer fits.

We take both off your hands: the switch and the upkeep afterwards.

Is switching worth it for you? In the audit, we work it out.

Our approach

Automate first. Then optimize.

With a middleware that takes a share of revenue, you keep paying for as long as you sell. We build the foundation once, in your own Channable: data, variants, rules and orders. Every marketplace runs on it, and whatever we improve after that applies to the whole catalog.

Comparison: middleware with a revenue share or your own Channable
Usual: middleware with a revenue share Unhooked: your own Channable
Billing Base fee plus a share of revenue Integration once, support plan monthly. No hourly rates, no revenue share.
When revenue grows The bill grows with it Costs stay the same, only a new marketplace adds to them
Account With the middleware provider Your Channable account, you pay the license directly to Channable
One change Support ticket, then wait We implement it in your account, for the whole catalog
New marketplace A new project Builds on the foundation

How the switch works

Run in parallel first. Then switch over.

We build everything in your Channable while your old system keeps running. We switch over marketplace by marketplace, each one only once it’s tested. Four steps, from the assessment to the switchover.

  1. Assessment.

    We look at what your old system does today: which marketplaces, which mappings and variants, how orders flow and when your contract ends.

  2. Build in Channable.

    Your store becomes the data source. In your own Channable, we build rules, mappings, variants and order sync for each marketplace. The old system keeps running unchanged.

  3. Both systems in parallel.

    We connect existing listings to your store instead of re-creating them, so rankings and reviews stay. We test prices, inventory and orders before Channable takes over.

  4. Switch over.

    As soon as everything runs stably, Channable takes over the marketplace. Only then do you turn off the old system. After that, a support plan of your choice keeps everything live.

What the switch includes and what comes after

One marketplace, four weeks

Timeline of the switch: the old system runs until the switchover in week 4. Your Channable is built in week 2 and tested in parallel in week 3. Your listings stay online the whole time.

More marketplaces follow the same plan.

SNOCKS · Switch to Channable, Shopify and Amazon

“Luis set up our integration across Shopify, Channable and Amazon, so inventory and orders sync cleanly between all systems. We even map Prime by Seller through Channable now, which was an important point for us. We’re really happy, both with the technical work and the collaboration.”

The offer

Live via Channable in 4 weeks. Or you don’t pay for the integration.

Go-live guarantee.

4 weeks per marketplace. If it isn’t live by then, you don’t pay for that integration.

  • 30 days of Care included.

They keep changing their rules. Since 2022, at least 8 new mandatory requirements have been added, such as GPSR, batteries and packaging. Care implements new requirements in your account and fixes rejections before a listing goes offline.

03Grow

Portrait of Luis, founder of Unhooked

Who’s behind it

You know your products. I know Channable.

I’m Luis, founder of Unhooked. We work only with Channable, every day, for more than 50 customers, and we’ve guided the switch from a middleware to Channable several times. Of the four Gold Partners in Germany, we’re the only one focused purely on marketplaces. I build every integration myself, more than 120 so far. From the first call, you talk to me, not to a sales team.

A good fit if ...

  • Your marketplaces run through Tradebyte, ChannelAdvisor or another middleware today.
  • Your store runs on Shopify or WooCommerce, or another system delivers clean data.
  • You sell around 100 products or more, ideally in a few categories.
  • Your product data has GTINs, clean variants and someone who maintains it.
  • You want costs that don’t grow with your revenue, and an account that belongs to you.

Probably not a fit if ...

  • You don’t have a backend like Shopify, WooCommerce, Shopware, a comparable e-commerce platform or a PIM where your product data is stored.
  • Product data is missing, and nobody can maintain it.
  • You run a dropshipping business.

FAQ about the switch

Your question isn’t here? Ask it in the audit, that’s what it’s for.

What does switching to Channable cost?

One integration per marketplace, which you pay for once, at a fixed price. After that, you choose a support plan, Care or Growth, billed monthly. No hourly rates, no revenue share. You pay the Channable license directly to Channable. We tell you the price in the first call, not after three.

Is switching worth it for us?

That depends on your contract, your marketplaces and the revenue you make through them. In the audit, we look at what your old system does today and work it out with you. If switching isn’t worth it, we’ll tell you.

How fast will a marketplace run via Channable, and what if it doesn’t?

Within 4 weeks, or you don’t pay for that integration. The 4 weeks start as soon as access, the marketplace account and your sign-off on the data are in place. Live means: the agreed products are online on the marketplace through the integration, prices and inventory update automatically, and orders arrive in your system. The first 30 days of Care are included.

Will a listing go offline during the switch?

No. Until the switchover, your old system keeps running unchanged. Channable only takes over a marketplace once everything there is tested. That’s how we switch you over without a single listing going offline.

What happens to rankings and reviews?

They stay. We continue existing listings instead of re-creating them and connect them to your store via SKU and EAN. If you re-list instead of connecting, you start from zero on rankings and reviews. That’s exactly how our most recent middleware switch went, without a single day of downtime.

What happens to orders and invoices during the transition?

Until the switchover, orders come in through your old system as they do today, after that through Channable. For each marketplace, only one system ever picks up the orders, so none come in twice and none get lost. Whatever your old system still handles today, such as sending invoices to the marketplace, we record in the assessment and tell you how it will work afterwards.

When do we cancel our old system?

Nothing gets turned off until everything runs via Channable. When you cancel depends on your notice period. In the assessment, we plan the switch so it’s done before your contract ends.

Will we lose data, such as custom titles or mappings?

No. Your store stays the data source. Whatever exists only in the old system, such as custom titles, attributes or category mappings, we record in the assessment and either integrate it into your existing system or rebuild it in Channable.

Who does the work, and what do we need to do?

We do the switch: assessment, build in Channable, testing and switchover. You give us access to your store and marketplaces, sign off on the data and invite us to your Channable account. Don’t have one yet? Then you create one.

We sell on Zalando. Does that work without Tradebyte?

Yes. Zalando recommends Tradebyte as its preferred integrator and also allows other integrators; Channable connects to the Partner Program via zDirect. Your products stay: we continue them via their EANs instead of resubmitting them. You notify Zalando of the change of integrator, and Zalando switches over country by country as soon as the new country is ready.

We’re coming from ChannelAdvisor or another middleware. Does it work the same way?

Yes. The process is the same: assessment, build in Channable, both systems in parallel, switchover. ChannelAdvisor has been called Rithum since late 2023. Whether all your marketplaces can run via Channable, we check in the audit.

Why a monthly support plan if Channable runs automatically?

The integration is automated, the marketplaces aren’t. They keep changing their rules: since 2022, at least 8 new mandatory requirements have been added, such as GPSR, batteries or packaging. Care implements these changes in your account and fixes rejections before a listing goes offline.
