Selling on Bol.com via Channable: the complete guide

Bol.com is the largest Dutch marketplace with 13+ million customers. Selling via Bol.com is a logical step for most Dutch webshops. But without proper integration, it leads to manual inventory updates, out-of-stock sales, and missed Buy-Box opportunities.

With Channable, you fully automate your Bol.com integration: your Shopify feed is optimized and sent to Bol.com, inventory is synchronized in real-time, and orders come automatically into Shopify. Channable also helps with the Buy-Box by keeping your prices competitive.

Channify has set up dozens of Bol.com integrations via Channable. We know which feed rules work for Bol.com and how to maximize your sales.

Frequently asked questions about Bol.com and Channable

How much commission does Bol.com charge?

Bol.com charges a commission per sold product, ranging from 5% to 15% depending on the product category. Additionally, there may be storage and fulfillment costs with LVB. This commission is external and falls outside the Channable subscription.

Can I synchronize my Shopify inventory with Bol.com?

Yes. With the Channable order integration add-on, your inventory is synchronized in real-time between Shopify and Bol.com. Sell a product on Bol.com, and the inventory in Shopify drops immediately. And vice versa.

What is the Bol.com Buy-Box?

If multiple sellers offer the same product on Bol.com, the seller with the best combination of price, delivery time, and seller rating gets the Buy-Box (the preferred position). Channable helps you stay competitive by automatically optimizing your prices and delivery times.

Can I integrate LVB (Logistiek via Bol.com)?

Yes. Channable supports LVB integration. Your LVB inventory is synchronized with your Shopify inventory and LVB orders are automatically processed in Shopify. You don't have to manage inventory in two places manually.

The setup (connecting, feed rules, inventory synchronization, testing) takes 1-2 weeks. After that, we start with Buy-Box optimization, an ongoing process. The first sales increase is usually visible within 2-4 weeks.
