Pikengo is a shopping engine that operates in multiple EU countries. It gathers millions of products from hundreds of ecommerce stores. And you can effortlessly provide the assortment from your Magento 2 e-commerce website to the platform. In the following post, we describe how to achieve this goal.

Pikengo is available in Germany, Italy, France, and Spane in local languages. It offers 6 million products from more than a thousand online storefronts. To guarantee an easy and safe shopping, all the stores are evaluated and rated by the team of professionals. This note is part of the absolute independence and objectivity because Pikengo does not have any commercial relationship with any store that appears on the platform.

Products and stores on Pikengo are ordered according to their popularity: the more clicks a product receives, the better position it gets in the list of results. Unlike other price comparison engines, the platform does not provide the opportunity to buy the first position.

As a merchant, you will face the 150 control points providing your goods to the service. Here are the three main points:

• The security of online payments. The Pikengo specialists make sure that all stores are registered in the Mercantile Registry and that they have a secure payment system. To be completely safe, the platform performs a second inspection through a purchase simulation.
• The real price and services. The Pikengo specialists evaluate products and services you provide. They take into account such factors as the comparison with the competitors, offers and promotions proposed, shipping costs, fast delivery, the possibility of sending to alternative addresses, wrapping for gifts, diversity of forms of payments, information on guarantees, the right of rectification, etc.
• Constant Updates. Is the quality of products and services is improved, it affects the current rate. The same is about losing quality.

Now, when you know some key facts about Pikengo, we can focus on choosing the Magento 2 Pikengo connector.

How to Choose Magento 2 Pickengo Connector

You may face several issues while choosing a Magento 2 Pikengo connector. First of all, the selected tool may be designed to move data in one direction only. If it seems that it is enough for most integrations, you are mistaken. The new functionality may be added soon, so you will have to install an additional extension or do a part of work manuPikengo ally. In case of a supplementary module, the costs of integration increase. At the same time, the consumption of resources rise.

Moreover, we don’t recommend you to use two-way connectors if they don’t work with multiple integrations. A platform-oriented tool may be more precisely configured for a particular integration, but it will never help you with the synchronization of multiple systems together. You will face more problems with each new integration. The cost of being multichannel will rise dramatically, connectors will consume lots of resources, and the probability of conflicts will be significantly increased. Luckily, you can solve the problem with the help of a universal import/export solution, such as the Improved Import Export Magento 2 extension. Why do we recommend this module?

First of all, because it offers the ability to turn your Magento 2 store into a central hub and the control room for all integrations. With the help of the extension, you will easily move data to and from Magento 2 connecting it with any third-party system. To make the integration more user-friendly, we’ve equipped the module with the following features:

Flexible Import and Export Profiles. Our extension allows creating separate data flows to and from Magento 2. Thus, if you don’t need import functionality, you can create an export profile only. All profiles support cron so that any custom schedule of updates can be created. The extension offers predefined update intervals. Besides, you can run every profile manually before the update.

Multiple Connection Formats. In addition to the default CSV and a wide-spread XML, the Improved Import Export Magento 2 extension also supports TXT, Google Sheets, and API connection with external platforms. No competitors offer such broad selection of import/export formats.

Multiple Import/Export Sources. With the Improved Import & Export Magento 2 extension, you can easily transfer data files via different sources. First of all, it is a local server. If this option is not helpful in the integration, you can easily rely on a remote server or a cloud storage. Besides, file import via URL is possible as well.

Mapping. To solve the conflicts of data structures and different attributes, the Improved Import Export Magento 2 extension offers the user-friendly mapping functionality. Every profile includes a mapping grid that allows matching Magento 2 attributes to custom attributes in the most seamless manner. Forever forget about manual data file editing. Moreover, the module offers mapping presets – fixed mapping schemes for various integration that can be applied within just a few clicks.
