One stock, every channel
The shop, the register and the marketplace all draw on the same figure. What is already promised to a counter sale is no longer sellable online.

Madata
How do you sync Jumia sales with your management software?
In Madata, the connection comes down to two values Jumia hands you in Vendor Center: an application id and a refresh token. You paste them, and your shops, countries and currencies are read straight away. From then on everything flows: available stock and prices go out to the marketplace on every movement, orders come back with their buyer, their shipping fees and their original currency, and the shipment you confirm sends Jumia the parcel and its tracking number. Listings already online are matched on their seller reference instead of being typed again.
How long does connecting take?
Three screens, two values to paste. No file to prepare, no developer to call.
- 1
Create the application in Vendor Center
Jumia gives you an application id and a refresh token. Pick the « Self Authorization » type: it is the only one that keeps the connection alive over time.
- 2
Paste the two values into Madata
Nothing else to enter. Your shops, countries and currencies are read straight away.
- 3
The catalogue is matched, then everything flows
Your live listings are recognised by their seller reference. Anything without a match is shown separately, never silently duplicated.
Two-way synchronisation
What flows between Madata and Jumia?
Each side keeps what it does best: you own stock and prices, the marketplace owns the storefront and the buyers.

What a direct connection changes
The order arrives complete
Buyer, lines, shipping fees, original currency and delivery note: it is ready to pick, not to retype.
The shipment goes back to Jumia
You confirm the parcel in Madata, the tracking number goes up to the marketplace and the buyer follows the delivery.
Listings matched, never duplicated
Matching runs on the seller reference. Anything without a counterpart is shown separately, never created twice.
Nothing is lost in silence
Every exchange leaves a trace, with its duration, its return code and its error message. A problem is read, not guessed.
The connection does not die on its own
Jumia's refresh token changes on every use. Madata always keeps the latest one, even when the rest of the operation fails.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a special Jumia account to connect?
No, your Jumia Vendor Center seller account is enough. You create a « Self Authorization » application there, which gives you an id and a refresh token. That is all Madata asks for.
Does Madata create my listings on Jumia?
No, and that is deliberate. Every new listing goes through Jumia's quality control, which cannot be automated. Madata syncs what is already online and approved: stock, prices, orders, shipments.
How often is stock sent to Jumia?
A stock movement triggers the send. A catch-up also runs every fifteen minutes, and the marketplace reports are read back every ten minutes.
How are my Jumia products linked to Madata products?
By the seller reference, the SKU. Matches found are established on their own, the rest land in a separate list you reconcile by hand. No product is ever created twice.
I sell in several Jumia countries, does that work?
Yes. A seller account covers up to eleven countries, each with its own currency. Every order arrives in its own, and conversion into your reporting currency uses the rate you decide.
What happens if Jumia rejects a feed?
The rejected line is named, with its product and its reason. The retry goes out on its own at the next run, without you having to spot what failed.
Can I sell on Jumia and in store at the same time?
Yes, that is the whole point of the module. Stock is a single figure: a sale at the register removes the quantity from the marketplace straight away.
Is the module billed on top?
No. Jumia Connect is included from the TPE pack, with no subscription surcharge and no Madata commission on your sales. Marketplace fees remain Jumia's own.
Sell on Jumia without keeping two stock figures
A marketplace order becomes a sales order, a delivery note and a stock movement. Without anyone retyping a thing.
