About Brug

Your marketplace bridge.

Brug means bridge. It connects your product catalogue and stock levels to the marketplaces where your customers shop — Takealot, BobShop, Facebook Marketplace, and more to come.

Instead of manually updating listings, prices, and stock across every platform, Brug keeps everything in sync from a single source of truth. When an order comes in from any marketplace, Brug captures it and feeds it back so your stock stays accurate everywhere.

Brug is built for South African sellers who are tired of copy-pasting between seller portals. It integrates directly with Winkl and Norm (inventory), so if you're already in the 8by3 ecosystem, everything just works.

Multi-marketplace sync

Push your products to Takealot, BobShop, and Facebook Marketplace from one dashboard. Update once, publish everywhere.

Stock synchronisation

When stock moves in Norm, Brug updates every connected marketplace. No more overselling or manual stock counts across platforms.

Order aggregation

Orders from every marketplace flow into one place. See what sold, where it sold, and keep fulfilment on track without switching between seller portals.

Takealot integration

Full Seller API integration. Manage offers, update pricing and stock, track sales, and handle lead-time inventory — all through Brug.

BobShop integration

Product upserts, variant management, bulk uploads, and real-time order webhooks. Your BobShop listings stay current automatically.

Facebook Marketplace

Coming soon. List products on Facebook Marketplace and manage orders alongside your other channels.

Winkl + Norm integration

Already using Winkl or Norm? Brug plugs in natively. Your products, stock, and orders flow seamlessly across the 8by3 suite.

Brug is a product of 8by3, an independent studio, running on its own solar-powered servers, rather than the big tech cloud. Built for people, not investors.
