Ecommerce translation

Updated 3 January 2024 | Anastasia Kholod

Localization software depends on integration with shopping carts to automate most of its operations: translating every single piece of content: product names, descriptions, categories, graphics; converting currencies; managing shipping and orders, etc.

When building localization software, you need to ensure it can accurately retrieve, process, and add this information. This involves developing dozens of connections, including those with shopping platforms that merchants run their stores on.

Integration with shopping carts and marketplaces powers the majority of features and processes that every localization management system covers:

  • retrieve products lists along with prices images, descriptions, attributes, variants, categories, etc.
  • translate marketplace listings on eBay, Etsy, Amazon
  • add and update translated product info on webstores
  • get store info like name, timezone, language, currency, country etc.
  • automate, schedule, and customize tasks to run only for specific stores • organize the data in detailed reports

BUT integration can be harder than you think. And API2Cart does the hardest part of it for you. API2Cart makes integration with multiple shopping carts and marketplaces so much easier, faster and cheaper.
