For your buyers and growers

MarketAgent Connect

Your buyers order online instead of by phone, at any hour. You invite them, and they order from what you offer them. Your growers tell you what they're sending, and see their own consignments and documents.

Connect is an optional add-on to Hub: your staff accept its orders and consignments there.

  • For buyers
  • Their own order guide

    Buyers order from the products you offer them, their favourites or what they ordered before.

  • Up to a week ahead

    They choose the delivery day, from tomorrow to a week out, until midnight the night before.

  • Quantities, not prices

    Orders and products carry no prices. Your staff price each sale, as they do today.

  • What was supplied

    Buyers see what you accepted and supplied against what they ordered, with the docket numbers.

  • Their own documents

    Invoices, credit notes and receipts for their own accounts. They can send you a photo of a payment or a problem with a delivery.

  • An app on their phone

    Connect installs like an app, with notifications and a daily reminder to order.

  • For growers
  • What's on the truck

    Growers tell you the day it arrives, their con. note and what they're sending, with photos.

  • Accepted in Hub

    Your staff accept it as a consignment in MarketAgent Pro, ready to book in when the truck arrives.

  • Their consignments

    What they advised against what you received, then priced, settled and paid.

  • Their own documents

    Payback advices, remittances and tax invoices for their own consignments.

Works with what you have

Built on MarketAgent Pro

Hub and Connect work with the MarketAgent Pro you already run. Nothing is taken away, and nothing changes underneath.

  • It stays where it is

    MarketAgent Pro stays on your premises and keeps running as it does today.

  • Side by side

    Your staff can use Hub and your existing programs at the same time, on the same stock.

  • When the internet drops

    Carry on in MarketAgent Pro, as you do now.

  • Every change recorded

    Each change made in Hub is recorded in MarketAgent Pro, under the person who made it.

  • Your own printers

    Dockets and pick slips print on the printers you already use.

  • Set up by Astra

    A small program on your server, and nothing to install on your staff's computers or phones.

Security and hosting

Your data stays in Australia

Hub's and Connect's data is held in Microsoft Azure in Sydney.

  • Your own Microsoft sign-in

    Staff sign in with your business's Microsoft 365 accounts, so your security rules apply and a leaver is switched off in one place.

  • No passwords on Connect

    Buyers and growers sign in with a code emailed to them, so there's no password to forget or steal.

  • Your server stays closed

    The program on your server connects out to the cloud. No ports are opened on your network.

  • Rights for each person

    Everyone works as their own MarketAgent Pro user, with the rights you give them.

  • Prices stay private

    Buyers never see prices on orders or products, only on their own invoices and credit notes.

  • Astra's own support

    The people who support your MarketAgent Pro look after Hub and Connect too.
