Not necessarily. There are two types of partners: API partners and quote partners. API partners provide real-time stock and pricing data through an integrated API, which is the preferred method. However, quote partners can also participate without an API by manually responding to requests through Excel sheets.

An API partner integrates their system with Luminovo’s platform via an API, providing real-time stock and pricing data to customers. This enables automated, seamless transactions. A quote partner, on the other hand, participates manually by responding to quote requests via Excel sheets. Both types of partners are valuable, but the API option offers greater efficiency and real-time data access.

Partnering with Luminovo offers access to a global customer base, visibility within the electronics supply chain and opportunities for business growth. Luminovo provides a seamless platform for managing quotes ensuring that your products are easily accessible to potential buyers.
