Ability to use Repricing Service without necessity to contact Support Team of M2E Pro

Starting from current version, the Repricing Service is enabled by default for all Amazon Accounts. The Service is initially being offered for free and will most likely remain free of charge for some time.

The Service can be used in combination with the M2E Pro Extension via the Connector which allows to manage the Prices of the Products listed via M2E Pro to Amazon via the Service without any conflict with the Extension. Along with that, it can be used as an independent Service with its own simple logic.

Improvements

Price values of the Products managed via Repricing Service will be updated every hour instead of one time a day

Previously the Price values displayed in M2E Pro for the Products managed via Repricing Service used to be updated once a day. It caused the difference in the actual Price value shown on Amazon for the Product and those value which you can see in your Listings.

To solve this issue, the frequent of the Price updating was increased and starting from 6.4.7 version the Price values are updated each hour. So,

When Products managed by Repricing Service are added to the M2E Pro Listing, they will be marked immediately

When you are adding the Products into the Listing, but the same Product has already been managed via Repricing Service, it will be marked with theĀ  icon immediately.

Thus, the Product Price will be changed only via Repricing Service according to your configurations.
