Sell configured furniture from the shop you already run

Import the manufacturer catalogue into your own shop, load the 3D configurator on your own product page, and let what the customer configured arrive as a real order line: article number, variant code, price, component SKUs, render and a reopen link. A plugin in the shop you already have, not an integration project.

What it does

Three things, inside the shop you already run.

Imports the catalogue into your shop

Browse the real manufacturer catalogue in your own admin, tick what you want and import it. Title, specification table, price, the render as product image, and brand and series as filterable attributes. Articles the manufacturer marks as not orderable are skipped, with a line in the error list saying why.

Puts the configurator on the product page

The pCon configurator loads in an iframe on your own product page, on your own domain, with your catalogue and your prices. No separate configurator site, no second checkout, and nothing for the visitor to install.

Turns the configuration into an order line

One cart line carries the configured price and the full specification, with the component SKUs listed underneath it for purchasing. Reconfiguring reopens the exact same configuration rather than starting over.

Same product, two amounts of work

By hand

  • Rebuild twelve option groups as shop variants
  • Upload every finish swatch into your own media library
  • Reconstruct the dependencies between options from a PDF
  • Do it again when the price list changes
  • Hope what the customer picked is actually buildable

With pconnector

  • Tick the articles you want and import them
  • Finishes, prices and geometry come from the manufacturer
  • The configurator enforces the dependencies for you
  • A re-import follows the new price list
  • Only a valid configuration can reach the cart

What your shop partner will ask

Three answers, all of them checkable in the code they install. The full architecture is on the home page.

No secret ever reaches the browser

The catalogue import runs server to server behind a per-customer secret bound to one domain. The configurator in the browser is authorised by domain whitelist only. Two separated worlds, no shared credential.

The add-to-cart webhook is signed

What comes back out of the configurator carries an HMAC token that your shop verifies before anything touches the cart.

Prices are verified, not trusted

The configurator signs the price and your shop checks that signature against the public key of EasternGraphics. Without it, a desk of €10,165 goes into the cart for €1. We measured that on our own demo. The check is on by default, and the only reason to switch it off is an instance that carries no prices at all.

Platforms

The pCon side is identical on both. Only the platform glue differs: settings storage, cart and order hooks, product attributes.

In development, and you can put your name down

These do not ship yet and they carry no date. Each has a page that says where it stands, because enough interest is what decides which adapter gets finished first.

Before this can work

One pCon.ui licence

You keep it with EasternGraphics or their distributor. The gatekeeper the server-side import runs on is the same instance with a _wcfsuffix and comes with that same licence, so there is no second licence to buy. Worth confirming for your own contract, but it is the normal arrangement.

Brands that publish OFML data

And that have shared their catalogue with your account. If your manufacturers are European furniture makers it very likely already exists. If it does not, there is nothing to import, and we will tell you before you pay anything.

A shop you can install a plugin on

WooCommerce or Magento 2 today. No build step on the WooCommerce side, a normal module on the Magento side, and your own agency can read both before installing.

One step is not instant, and we would rather say so here. EasternGraphics whitelists the domain your configurator runs on by hand: one live domain plus two development domains, no wildcards, every subdomain separately. You set everything else up yourself, and the portal reads the real whitelist status straight from EasternGraphics.

Do you already work with pCon?

That is the question that decides it. If you do, tell us which shop or ERP you run and you hear what we can connect, what it takes and what it costs. If you do not work with pCon yet, you are early: that conversation starts at EasternGraphics, not with us.
