Find out more about the different types of apps, get information about the activation process and get help to check whether the developer functionalities of the service provider program are right for you!
For service partners who meet the following criteria, registration in the service partner program and use of the developer functionalities is mandatory:
Software or cloud solution with marketplace integrations
Public marketing of marketplace integrations
Marketplace integrations as a standard solution
Benefit from personal support, direct information on updates, access to the portal and OTTO Market help offers as well as joint exploitation of potential.
Service partners who meet the following criteria can choose whether they want to take advantage of the service partner program and register as a service partner:
Development of individual solutions for retailers
Marketplace integrations not a core business
Alternatively, you can let the merchants authenticate themselves with their own API client and you do not appear as a service partner on the platform yourself.
It all starts with registering as a service partner. All we need is your contact and company details. After assigning a password, you can get started. Once your account has been activated, you can easily request the necessary (developer) authorizations in the portal. Get started with the authorization for sandbox apps and start testing.
We want to make it as easy as possible for you to get started and get to know us. After you have requested the "Sandbox Apps" authorization, a 30-day test phase starts in the sandbox environment. Get to know the environment and estimate the effort required for integration. We will provide you with extensive documentation, examples and assistance. If you decide to integrate, complete the registration process by filling out the self-disclosure form. You will receive this at the end of the 30-day provisional access period.
Do you know earlier that you want to start development?
Then contact us at partnerintegration@otto.market and we will send you all further information.
Once registration is complete, you can start developing the desired functionalities. Depending on the scope of your service, we will arrange a kick-off meeting with you to discuss the go-live plan and provide you with personal support to clarify any questions. During development, you have unrestricted access to our sandbox environment and can test all the necessary processes.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at partnerintegration@otto.market.
If you are satisfied with the development and the tests, you can apply to go live and request authorization for "Private Production Apps". You will receive all further information about the process from us. Among other things, you will need to complete our data security check at this stage and provide us with more detailed information on how data security is handled in your company and your service. After successful review and approval, you can create a private app and carry out the first pilot tests in the live environment.
With the "Private Production Apps" authorization, you can create a Private OTTO Market App and connect to a pilot partner to test whether your integration works properly. After a successful pilot phase, you can connect further partners. Private access is initially limited to three partners. Contact us if you would like to expand your access and connect several partners in Private Access.
If you would like to connect an unlimited number of partners and roll out your developed service publicly, apply for the "Public Production Apps" authorization and we will inform you about all further steps. Please note that Public Access requires our team to review your solution again.
We believe that we can grow and develop together. That is why we are always interested in improving interfaces and optimizing existing connections. We look forward to good cooperation and a fruitful partnership!
Of course, we would also like to present this connection publicly and market you as a service provider on otto.market. Our team is always available to support you in the integration and further development of your solution and to accompany you through the necessary steps up to marketing.
We are convinced that your integration will create added value for our platform and our partners. We look forward to working with you!
