Before you start
Things you need to know:

- Sync direction for your data is one-way, Marketplacer to Dotdigital.
- Abandoned carts are not automatically configured as part of the integration, but we may be able to assist with setting up abandoned carts depending on the configuration of your Marketplacer site.

Activate the integration
To activate the Marketplacer integration, you must contact us. We need to support the installation to make sure it’s correctly configured and works as expected.
Features
The features of the Marketplacer integration:
- Syncs three data types:
- Subscribed and non-subscribed contacts
- Order data
- Product catalog
Contact data
Your Marketplacer contacts are synced into a Dotdigital address book called Marketplacer Contacts. If you have chosen to sync both subscribed and non-subscribed contacts, you can use a segment based on the NEWSLETTER_SUBSCRIBE data field to differentiate between the two.
To learn more, check out the article Create a segment.
Address book selection
If you want your Marketplacer contacts to be added to a different address book on sync, you can discuss this with us during the integration setup. Alternatively, you could use an automated program to move contacts from the Marketplacer subscribers address book to another address book of your choice. To learn more, check out the article Using programs to add contacts to address books and other programs.
