Introduction
If you are setting up our Marktplaats WooCommerce plugin, you might be wondering whether a standard account is enough. To use the plugin, you do indeed need an Admarkt account (also known as a Marktplaats Zakelijk account).
Our integration communicates directly with the official Marktplaats advertising API (Admarkt), which is exclusively available to business users.
Why an Admarkt account is required
An Admarkt account unlocks the necessary professional infrastructure for your store, providing several benefits that enable the plugin to function:
API Access: It provides the secure connection keys required to link WooCommerce with the marketplace.
Automated Bidding: It allows the plugin to automatically push your products as paid, high-visibility advertisements.
Cost-per-Click (CPC) Model: Instead of flat listing fees, you gain access to the business advertising dashboard where you only pay when a potential customer clicks on your ad.
How to get started
Creating a business account is straightforward and can be completed in just a few minutes:
Head over to the official Marktplaats business portal at: https://www.marktplaatszakelijk.nl
Click on the registration button to sign up as a business advertiser.
Fill in your company information, including your Chamber of Commerce (KVK) and VAT numbers if applicable.
Once your account is active, you can retrieve your credentials and plug them into your WooCommerce backend to start syncing your inventory.
