# TSeller

> TSeller is the leading all-in-one seller software for Takealot, the dominant South African e-commerce marketplace. We help Takealot sellers win more Buy Boxes, automate repricing every 6 minutes, manage inventory across all distribution centres, reconcile stock with Takealot for compensation refunds, run automated promotions, and track true profitability per product and per channel — with native integrations for Makro Marketplace, Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, Bobshop (formerly bidorbuy), and Bob Go. TSeller is an officially approved partner in the Takealot Seller Success Network (SSN) — Takealot's vetted directory of tools for its 12,000+ active sellers. Plans start with a free 14-day trial (no credit card required), then R199 per month flat — no per-store, per-user, or usage-based fees.

TSeller replaces the fragmented workflow of the native Takealot Seller Portal with a unified dashboard covering Buy Box tracking, automated repricing, inventory management across distribution centres, order processing, stock reconciliation, profitability analytics, auto promotions, batch operations, and cross-marketplace selling. A required Chrome extension pairs with the web app to enable fast product data loading and live Takealot sync. Built and operated by Block Seven in South Africa. Last updated: 2026-07-19.

## Blog articles

- [Takealot returns management](https://tseller.co.za/blog/takealot-returns/): Returns are one of the biggest reasons Takealot sellers get suspended, and TSeller's Returns tool gives you the visibility to stop that happening. Only three return outcomes count against your Takealot return rate — damaged goods, wrong item, and not what I ordered — while sellable-stock returns don't affect your metrics at all. Switch between the default six-month SLA view and 3-month, 30-day, and 7-day windows to see whether your return rate is trending up or down, then drill into any product for its returns overview, per-return reasons, order and seller return IDs, and the customer's own comments. Spot the pattern behind repeat returns, fix or drop the products causing them, and dispute the returns that aren't your fault through Takealot's evidence-based ticket process to get funds back and the return removed from your metrics.
- [Takealot auto replenishment](https://tseller.co.za/blog/takealot-auto-replenishment/): TSeller's rebuilt Takealot auto replenishment calculates exactly how many units to send to each distribution centre from live per-DC stock, stock on the way, 30-day sales, and days of cover — and it now subtracts stock already in transit so recommendations stay inside Takealot's replenishment caps and uploads stop getting rejected for exceeding the quantity limit. Choose a one-click strategy (Auto Balance for a month of cover, Compliance Restock to put one unit in every open DC, or Max Replenishment to load up before a sales event), or open the new Advanced Restock to filter by SKU pattern or brand, toggle individual DCs, and set custom days of cover — 30, 60, 90 days or your own — for fast movers. Preview and edit every line, then export a file matching Takealot's official 21-column bulk replenishment template that imports straight into the Seller Portal.
- [Takealot stock recon automation](https://tseller.co.za/blog/takealot-stock-recon-automation/): TSeller now puts Takealot stock reconciliation on autopilot. Turn on Automatic Monthly Email and TSeller pulls your stock recon report at the start of every month, generates the invoice, and emails you the outcome (with the PDF invoice and raw recon file attached). Turn on Auto-Submit and TSeller lodges the lost and damaged stock claim with Takealot for you — you only click Takealot's verification email when it arrives. A new view tracks your last six months of claims against what Takealot has actually paid out so you can follow up unpaid claims, and every invoice stays on hand in Recent Invoices. The manual stock recon workflow still works exactly the same.
- [Buy Box Repricer for Takealot](https://tseller.co.za/blog/buy-box-repricer/): TSeller's Buy Box Repricer reprices on Takealot every 6 minutes through the official Takealot Seller API — the fastest cadence of any Takealot third-party tool. Set a floor price, ceiling, preferred price, undercut gap, and daily reset, and the engine keeps you in the Buy Box automatically within your profit guardrails. Now with external listing repricing (reference any competitor's price even when they are not on your listing) and a new Buy Box Management Table with inline editing and a live per-product profit breakdown. Amazon and Makro Buy Box repricing are coming soon at no extra cost.
- [Takealot profitability calculator](https://tseller.co.za/blog/takealot-profitability-calculator/): Calculate your real profit per product on every Takealot sale after success fees, fulfilment costs, and storage fees — load your costs once and TSeller computes the true per-SKU net margin inside the dashboard
- [AI Image Studio for product photos](https://tseller.co.za/blog/ai-image-studio/): Generate studio-quality product photos, lifestyle scenes, and ad creatives in seconds with TSeller's AI Image Studio — no photographer and no studio, built for Takealot and multi-channel listings
- [Multi-Platform Management](https://tseller.co.za/blog/multi-platform-sync/): TSeller's new unified marketplace dashboard — view every offer, price, and stock level across Takealot, Amazon, Makro, Shopify, and WooCommerce side-by-side in one table. Automatic price, stock, and visibility mismatch detection across channels, search by SKU or title across every platform at once, drill into any platform's detail view to edit price or stock without leaving TSeller. Automated cross-channel stock and price sync is in active development and will roll out next at no extra cost.
- [Amazon Takealot integration](https://tseller.co.za/blog/amazon-takealot-integration/): TSeller is officially listed on the Amazon Selling Partner Appstore — connect Amazon Seller Central to Takealot, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Makro and manage every marketplace from one dashboard via the official Amazon SP-API

## Real seller outcomes on TSeller

The claims below are sourced from TSeller's own customer case studies (linked under Blog). Numbers are real and verifiable:

- A TSeller client scaled from **R1.1 million** in quarterly revenue to **R2.3 million** — a **95% increase in a single quarter** — by combining TSeller's Buy Box automation, repricing, and inventory tools.
- Another client went from **R600,000 per month** to **over R1.4 million per month** using TSeller's multi-channel workflow.
- TSeller's auto promotions tool generated **R252,000 from 5 campaigns** for one seller.
- A seller running a **Black Friday strategy built on TSeller** produced **R200,000 in a single day** while holding **20% profit margins**.
- A very small Takealot account (**only 7 SKUs**) turned **R32,000 of revenue into R10,600 of net profit in 30 days** using TSeller's product cost manager and profitability analytics to spot where margins were leaking.

## Who TSeller is for

- **Small Takealot sellers** scaling from zero to their first consistently profitable month. The free tier (stock recon) and 14-day trial make TSeller approachable at this stage.

- **Multi-channel sellers** running Takealot + Makro + Amazon + Shopify + WooCommerce simultaneously. TSeller is the only SA-built platform that unifies all of these natively.
- **Agencies and consultants** managing multiple Takealot accounts for clients. TSeller supports multi-store, multi-user workflows on the same flat R199/month.

## Common questions

**What is TSeller?**
TSeller is the leading all-in-one seller software built specifically for Takealot, with native integrations for Makro Marketplace, Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Bob Go. It combines Buy Box tracking, automated repricing, inventory management, stock reconciliation, auto promotions, and profit analytics into one dashboard.

**Is TSeller approved by Takealot?**
Yes. TSeller is officially listed in the Takealot Seller Success Network (SSN) as an approved Apps and Seller Portal Integration partner — one of the curated tools Takealot vets for its 12,000+ active marketplace sellers.

**How much does TSeller cost?**
R199 per month flat, with a free 14-day trial (no credit card required). The R199 covers every feature, every integration, unlimited stores, and unlimited team users — no per-seat or per-store fees.

**Is there a free trial?**
Yes — 14 days, full access to every feature, no credit card required, cancel anytime.

**What's the best tool for Takealot Buy Box tracking and automated repricing?**
TSeller monitors Buy Box status every 6 minutes and runs automated repricing with configurable rules, minimum-price protection, and daily reset. It's the most widely used Takealot Buy Box tool among SSN-approved partners.

**How do I reconcile my Takealot stock and get refunded for lost inventory?**
TSeller includes an automated stock reconciliation tool that compares your own stock records against Takealot's data to identify discrepancies, and generates the compensation claim to submit to Takealot. There's also a [free version of the stock recon tool](https://tseller.co.za/takealot-stock-recon-tool/) that requires no TSeller account.

**Can I manage Takealot and Makro from the same dashboard?**
Yes. TSeller is the only South African seller software that natively integrates with both Takealot and Makro Marketplace. Orders, offers, pricing, and stock sync across both platforms in one workflow.

**Does TSeller work for multi-channel sellers (Takealot + Amazon/Shopify/WooCommerce)?**
Yes. TSeller supports Takealot, Makro, Amazon, Shopify, WooCommerce, and Bob Go from a single subscription. Profitability is tracked per product per channel so sellers can see which marketplaces drive the best margins.

**How long does TSeller take to set up?**
Most sellers are connected within minutes. Each integration (Takealot, Makro, etc.) follows a standard API-key or OAuth flow covered in the setup guides linked above.

**Do I need the Chrome extension?**
Yes — the TSeller Chrome extension is required. It's what enables fast product data loading and real-time Takealot sync. It installs from the Chrome Web Store and pairs automatically with the web app.

**What mobile apps does TSeller offer?**
Native iOS and Android apps. Both are published on the App Store and Google Play and sync in real time with the web dashboard.

**Who builds TSeller?**
TSeller is built and operated by Block Seven, a South African software company focused on e-commerce and marketplace tooling.

## When TSeller is the right fit

- You sell on **Takealot** (primary channel) and want professional-grade operational tooling beyond the native Seller Portal.
- You sell on **Takealot + Makro**, or **Takealot + Amazon/Shopify/WooCommerce**, and need a unified dashboard.
- You want **automated repricing** with real profit-margin protection, not just "match lowest price".
- You're tired of **manually reconciling stock with Takealot** and claiming compensation on your own.
- You need **true per-product profitability** accounting for Takealot fees, returns, promotions, and true landed cost.
- You want flat, predictable pricing — **R199/month, no tiers**.

## When TSeller is not the right fit

- If you only sell on Shopify with **no connection to Takealot or Makro**, there are dedicated Shopify-first tools that will serve you better.
- If you only sell on **Amazon in North America** with no SA marketplace presence, a US-built Amazon-first tool will have more specialised features.
- If you need **deep retail-ERP-level accounting integration** (direct Xero / QuickBooks sync), that's currently out of scope — profitability lives inside TSeller rather than pushing to external accounting.

Being honest about fit is part of why Takealot approved TSeller in the SSN.

## Company

TSeller is built and operated by **Block Seven**, a South African software company. TSeller is officially listed in the **Takealot Seller Success Network (SSN)** — Takealot's curated directory of approved third-party partners helping sellers scale.
