Which products lost the buy box?

Why does this product not have the buy box?

Which product has the buy box is determined by many factors controlled by the marketplace. More information can be found here: The Amazon Repricerarrow-up-right and The Bol.com Repricerarrow-up-right.

We can’t give you the exact reason why a product doesn’t have the buy box, but we provide contextual information to better understand the buy box status.

On the product page of a product included in the repricer you can find the current reprice settings, competitors, and the recent events that happened to that product. Clicking on an event shows more details about that event, such as the competitors and settings at the time of the event.

Why did the repricer make a price change?

Each price update is determined by a number of factors not all within our control. To help you understand why the repricer made a price update, we provide the necessary information:

  • The competitors at the time of the price update

  • The reprice settings at the time of the price update

  • The reason the repricer made that update

You can find this information when clicking on a price update event on the product page or in the results tab of the API.

Is the repricer making updates?

You can see if the repricer is actively repricing by looking at the latest updates of the repricer. You can find those in the results tab of the API the repricer is activated for.

  • If there are no events, you might need to activate the repricer first via the API settings.

  • If this repricer is active, it can take up to a few hours before it starts making price updates.

  • If it’s still not doing any updates after a few hours, there might be something going wrong. Please contact support in that case.
