Bulk upload Products onto your website


You can bulk upload new products and edit existing products onto your website using our CSV bulk Upload feature. You need to navigate to WordPress > Products > Toolbox

Please note that you If you want to compare prices from multiple stores/vendors for the same product, then you will have to create multiple rows for the same product. For example if Product XYZ has offers from both Amazon and Ebay then, this product will have 2 rows for the prices from Amazon and Ebay in the CSV file one below the other.


Uploading new products

  1. Click on "download sample file". This will download a sample file on your computer with all the required fields that you need to fill up
  2. Below are the fields that you will need to fill

    2. Title: Title is a mandatory field. You can add a title/name for your product in this field. As mentioned above you will need to create multiple rows for the same product in order to update multiple offers from multiple vendors/stores. You will have to make sure that the title is exactly same in all the rows for that particular product. If the title is different then instead of adding a new offer for the same product, a new product will be created altogether.
