Kaufland Marketplace

Kaufland Marketplace is a high‑reach, multi‑category marketplace backed by the Schwarz Group, operating under the Kaufland brand since 2021 after evolving from real.de. It has become a trusted, mainstream sales channel in Germany and is expanding across Central Europe via Kaufland Global Marketplace, currently covering DE, CZ and SK.

With strong brand awareness, broad assortment and a price‑driven retail DNA, it attracts established manufacturers and high‑SKU sellers seeking scale and reliability.

With shopvibes’ native API integration, you map attributes once, keep taxonomy‑compliant listings in sync, manage variants and media consistently, and localize product content for DE/CZ/SK with built‑in quality checks and analytics.

Current Seller Fees ‍
