What Acenda handles for Nordstrom Marketplace

Quick answer

After Nordstrom approves your brand, Acenda connects your catalog to Nordstrom Marketplace: listings mapped to Nordstrom's product types and attributes, inventory and pricing sync through the day, orders and tracking both ways, and daily payout reconciliation. Acenda connects directly, so you do not need Mirakl Connect. Acenda does not approve brands, ship orders, or issue refunds.

What does the Nordstrom Marketplace integration cover?

The Nordstrom Marketplace integration starts after Nordstrom approves the brand. Acenda is the layer between your catalog and the channel. Each block below is the short version; the linked page owns the detail.

Listings and attributes

Acenda maps the catalog to Nordstrom product types, required attributes, and approved value lists, and sends listing errors back as specific fixes tied to the product and field. See Nordstrom product listings and product attribution.

Size and color variants

Variants are grouped so each child differs on the variation attributes, such as size and color. See size and color variants.

Images

Images are supplied as direct image files and assigned to the listing. See Nordstrom image requirements.

Inventory and pricing

Stock and prices sync through the day, with a regular full refresh and a daily check that Nordstrom matches what you expect. See inventory and pricing.

Orders and fulfillment

Orders, cancellations, and returns come in. Shipments and tracking go back. A daily check catches shipped orders that are still open on Nordstrom's side. See orders and fulfillment.

Returns and settlement

Acenda pulls Nordstrom payment and transaction records daily and matches them to orders. See returns and settlement.

Do I need Mirakl Connect?

No. Nordstrom Marketplace runs on Mirakl, and Acenda connects directly to Nordstrom's marketplace. Brands selling through Acenda do not need Mirakl Connect. Acenda is an approved, pioneer partner of Nordstrom Marketplace and has been part of Nordstrom Marketplace since day one.

What Acenda does not do

  • Approval. Acenda does not approve brands or decide acceptance. Nordstrom does.
  • Retailer terms. Acenda does not set Nordstrom's commercial terms.
  • Shipping. Your warehouse or 3PL ships the order.
  • Refunds. Acenda does not issue refunds.
  • Go-live dates. Acenda does not guarantee a go-live date. Nordstrom's review and your catalog readiness set the pace.

Launching and Nordstrom Rack

The path from approval to a live catalog is on launching on Nordstrom.

Nordstrom Rack is a separate channel with separate approvals and requirements. See sell on Nordstrom Rack.
