What is Ricardo

Ricardo is a part of the online properties of Tamedia group based in Switzerland which owns several websites and online markets. Recardo.ch is an ecommerce platform which allows you to sell various products at auction and fixed prices.

The parameters which Ricardo.ch offers are perfectly matched with that of the products data parameters of Magento 2. Employ those parameters with Magento 2’s products to create a Product Feed because Magento 2 does not support creating feed at the moment, and we need to use Module to create one. Ricardo allows you to upload feed files in CSV format.
