Overstock Integration
What began in 1999 as an arena through which to liquidate surplus product inventory has ultimately become one of the fastest growing online marketplaces. At its inception, Overstock boasted a paltry 100 products available for online sale to consumers. One decade later, the web-based discount shopping mogul offers over 760,000 products in two categories: “BMMG” (books, music, movies, games) and more.
In an effort to save consumers money online while distributing goods manufactured in abundance, Overstock has promoted its business brand in sync with the emergence of Ecommerce solutions for online businesses like ShopVisible. Both companies offer services to broaden client selling ability and maintain competitive pricing on the Web.
Many Ecommerce vendors exhibit trepidation with regards to Overstock integration because both their solution and their vendors take on an aura of anonymity. Unlike integrating with Amazon for instance, Overstock demands a high level of control both from their sellers and from their own brand. Online retailers pushing their products into Overstock lose their ability to promote their brand and their business but they are able to sell more widely in one of the most popular online marketplaces.
After going through Overstock’s rigorous selection process, many e-tailers become concerned that when online shoppers view their products, it isn’t their brand shown as the seller but in fact Overstock who takes control over the online items. Likewise, any individual seller’s logo, name, and company info is usurped by Overstock to promote channel cohesion and maintain an environment based on genuine discount online selling to the consumer and not self-serving brand promotion. Overstock wants to grow their business; ShopVisible want to help you grow yours by integrating with pivotal online players like Overstock, thereby enabling you as an online merchant to sell more widely and acquire more visibility on the Web in front of your prospective customers.
With our multi-channel integration, business owners can increase profitability by getting their products (and their name) in front of buyers who love to shop on the biggest online marketplaces. ShopVisible ecommerce solution enables you to integrate into all major online channels including Overstock.com.
ShopVisible has a complete Overstock Integration that let's you manage your direct to consumer website AND your Overstock orders via one user-friendly interface. Once your products are in the ShopVisible system, they can be pushed seamlessly into Overstock as well as other channels like Amazon, Craigslist, eBay, and more. Orders, tracking, returns and all customer communications can be managed from our centralized system.
Here are some of the features that we offer that make our Overstock Integration unbeatable:

- Reports customized to fit business needs.
- Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) so that inventory transactions with Overstock are automatic and efficient.
