Facts & Info
MyToys offers a simple and straightforward connection for its own marketplace model “Partner Program”. This is because just one technical integration gives access to two stores, namely myToysand mirapodo. The former focuses on toys & baby supplies, and is Germany’s best online store in the child and baby category. Mirapodo, on the other hand, is one of Germany’s largest online shoe stores for women’s, men’s and children’s shoes. Founded as a pure shoe store, mirapodo has since become a store with an extensive range of shoes, fashion, bags and accessories for women, men and children. The clothing is offered exclusively by partners.
How do I become a partner?
The technical connection via the MYTOYS Group partner program can be made directly or via external integration solutions.
With the MYTOYS Group Vendor Portal you can connect your systems directly to the platform via a web interface, CSV or XML.
Alternatively, integration is also possible via Tradebyte, Plentymarkets, novomindor JTL.
After selecting the appropriate integration solution, the partner process takes place in 6 simple steps:
- Registration for the supplier manager
- Contact & activation by partner manager
- Filling in the data in the supplier manager & signing the contract documents
- Technical integration
- Checking of data and transfer to the stores
- Live launch of the products
- Costs & delivery
There is a 15% sales commission based on gross sales price after deduction of returns, but there is reduced sales commission for technical products. From the start of integration, a 39€ plus VAT monthly basic fee is charged, but no further extra costs are then added. MyToys offers a B2C delivery to end customers, as well as a commission business, respectively only a commission business in the partner program. Since the goods are shipped directly from the partner, the B2C delivery lies with the partner.
