Frequently Asked Questions
How do I integrate ScanSource with my ecommerce store?
Spark Shipping provides a pre-built ScanSource integration that works with Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, WooCommerce, Amazon, eBay, Walmart Marketplace, and other platforms. To get started, create a Spark Shipping account, add ScanSource as a vendor using your API credentials or data feed details, then connect your ecommerce store. Once linked, product data, inventory, pricing, order routing, and tracking updates flow automatically — no custom development required.
What ScanSource product data does Spark Shipping sync?
Spark Shipping syncs the full ScanSource product catalog your dealer account is authorized for, including titles, descriptions, specifications, high-resolution images, UPCs, MPNs, brand and category data, and your dealer-specific pricing. All product data stays up to date automatically.
Does Spark Shipping keep ScanSource inventory and pricing in sync automatically?
Yes. Spark Shipping pulls live inventory levels and dealer pricing directly from ScanSource and pushes updates to your store on a scheduled interval. When a product goes out of stock or ScanSource changes wholesale cost or MAP pricing, your listings update automatically to prevent overselling and protect your margins.
Can Spark Shipping automate ScanSource order fulfillment and tracking?
Yes. When a customer places an order on your store, Spark Shipping captures it and submits a fulfillment request directly to ScanSource. Once ScanSource ships the order, tracking information is pulled back and pushed to your ecommerce platform automatically, so your customer receives a shipping notification without any manual work.
Can I sell ScanSource products alongside other suppliers?
Absolutely. Spark Shipping supports multiple vendors on a single store. If the same product is available from ScanSource and another supplier, you can link both to one listing. Spark Shipping's Intelligent Order Routing then automatically selects the supplier with the best price or closest warehouse to the customer's shipping address for each order.
How does Spark Shipping handle ScanSource pricing and profit margins?
Spark Shipping pulls your dealer cost and MAP pricing directly from ScanSource and applies your custom pricing rules to calculate retail prices. You can set fixed dollar markups, percentage margins, or tiered pricing structures. When ScanSource changes wholesale cost or MAP, your store prices adjust automatically.
