# What is LitCommerce?

## <mark style="color:$primary;">**Introduction**</mark> <a href="#id-1-introduction" id="id-1-introduction"></a>

LitCommerce is a SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) multi-channel selling tool that helps streamline your selling process, from listing to advertising products on the world's top platforms.

The tool’s key features include:

* **Centralized Data Management:** Manage data in a single LitCommerce dashboard by importing it from your platforms and transferring to other channels and feeds. This helps eliminate the need to manually update each product on every channel or feed.

* **Data Synchronization:** Automate data updates on different platforms via the API or through data feeds, ensuring data consistency across all connected channels.

* **Bulk Data Update:** Modify and enhance your product data in bulk, saving you from time-consuming manual tasks.

We also offer flexible pricing that scales with your business as it expands. For more details, see our [pricing plan](https://litcommerce.gitbook.io/litcommerce-helpdesk/what-is-litcommerce/pricing-plan) or [contact us](https://litcommerce.com/contact-us/).&#x20;

## <mark style="color:$primary;">**Exploring LitCommerce**</mark> <a href="#id-1-exploring-litcommerce" id="id-1-exploring-litcommerce"></a>

LitCommerce consists of two separate apps: Marketplace Integration & Feed Management, which work independently of one another. They have distinct functions and serve different purposes.

You can use both apps under the same LitCommerce account. Each app is allowed to connect with multiple Main Stores. A Main Store operates with its own set of sales channels and cannot connect to channels associated with other Main Stores.

### <mark style="color:$info;">**Marketplace Integration**</mark> <a href="#id-3-marketplace-integration" id="id-3-marketplace-integration"></a>

This app handles the transfer of most product and order-related data between your Main Store (the main data source) and sales channels using APIs. While it automatically synchronizes, the data can be synced depending on the connected platforms and their limitations.

The Marketplace Integration app supports a wide range of integrations, available [HERE](https://litcommerce.com/marketplace-integration/).&#x20;

### <mark style="color:$info;">**Feed Management**</mark> <a href="#id-3-feed-management" id="id-3-feed-management"></a>

The app helps optimize and distribute your product data from the Main Store to various platforms (such as Google Shopping, Meta Online Products, etc.) via data feeds, with sync frequency based on your selected plan.

Aside from the Main Stores (Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Wix, CSV, and Google Sheets), there are over 300 supported [platforms](https://litcommerce.com/product-feed-supported-channels/) with more than 2,500 feed templates, giving you flexible control over your product data.

The following table compares the **LitCommerce Marketplace Integration** and **LitCommerce Feed Management** apps to help you choose a suitable option.
