Connect

One connection. All retailers.

The Message Hub is Tradeplace’s standardized, real‑time platform — jointly developed by all participants — that links manufacturers to thousands of retailer shops through a single integration. It automates the full order‑to‑cash process, supports complex workflows like home delivery, drop shipping, and vendor‑managed inventory, and connects directly to your ERP for instant data exchange.

After implementation with our team, you’ll gain:

• Full order lifecycle visibility
• Real‑time transactions ideal for Point‑of‑Sale
• 24×7 access to your entire product range
• Faster, more efficient processing
• Direct access to all Tradeplace partners — no extra projects
• Easy ERP/CRM integration with standard message types

Our flat‑fee model means unlimited messages and partners, eliminating costly EDI links, VPNs, and per‑transaction charges.

Ready to streamline your supply chain?

Any format. Any retailer. One connection.

With Message Converter, Tradeplace translates legacy EDIFact, JSON, XML, CSV and other protocols into our TradeXML standard — and vice versa — so you can connect with any partner, no matter their technology, through one seamless Message Hub integration.

With Message Converter you can:

• Integrate with any retailer — regardless of their protocol or format
• Bridge legacy systems like EDIFact, JSON, XML or CSV into modern TradeXML
• Avoid costly custom development for non‑standard connections
• Future‑proof your integration as formats evolve over time

Instant access to thousands of smaller retailers

Within the Connect ecosystem, Connect Bridges are ready‑made integrations that link the Tradeplace TradeXML protocol directly into the everyday systems used by smaller retailers — from ERP and CRM to kitchen planning tools, point‑of‑sale platforms, and more.

By bridging these systems, manufacturers can easily onboard technically less‑equipped retail partners into their digital supply chain, without complex development or costly custom EDI work. Integration is fast, standardized, and scalable, reducing setup and maintenance costs while expanding your reach from local shops to global markets.

You’ll find the full list of available Bridges on our partners page — each designed to connect you directly to a new retail audience with minimal effort.

E‑invoicing compliance — built in

Through our integrated partnership with Storecove, Tradeplace delivers ViDA‑compliant e‑invoicing for suppliers on the Message Hub — converting Tradeplace TradeXML Billing Documents (for example invoices, debit notes and credit notes) into legally valid formats for each country’s regulations, ready for cross‑border trade.

With ViDA e‑Invoicing you can:

• Stay compliant with support for all major e‑invoice formats
• Automate outbound invoicing directly from the Message Hub
• Reduce complexity & IT cost with one trusted connection for all jurisdictions

Secure, compliant storage for your e‑invoices

The Invoice Archive is an add‑on to Tradeplace’s Message Hub, designed specifically for the fully compliant storage and archiving of electronic invoices. Unlike ViDA‑compliant invoicing solutions, this service focuses solely on archiving — ensuring every invoice is stored in full accordance with country‑specific legislation and local storage period requirements.

With Invoice Archive, manufacturers and retailers can protect their records, meet legal obligations, and simplify audit readiness — all in one centralized, secure digital vault.
