Scout

Scout finds the cheapest way to split your whole cart across your suppliers. It compares exactly the same products, counts the shipping costs and suggests which items you're better off ordering from another supplier. You see every suggestion and choose what you apply. Read more about Scout on swyp.be.

Scout works as soon as you've connected at least two suppliers.

Have your cart checkedCopy Anchor Link

While your cart fills up, Scout already checks in the background whether it can be cheaper. If Scout finds a saving, you see it in your cart, below the subtotal. For a bigger saving, a percentage is shown as well.

How Scout calculatesCopy Anchor Link

• Exactly the same product. Scout never suggests a different brand or a different product.
• Shipping costs count. Sometimes Scout moves an item that's slightly more expensive at the new supplier, because that gets you free shipping there, or because you skip a supplier entirely and don't pay its shipping costs. Your total still goes down. Such a suggestion is marked with a label like Free shipping unlocked.
• Only what can be delivered. Scout doesn't suggest a supplier for products that are out of stock there.
• Your own prices. Scout uses the prices from your own accounts. Scout doesn't take a year-end rebate into account.

If something goes wrongCopy Anchor Link

• A supplier doesn't respond. If Scout can't fetch a supplier's prices, it leaves that supplier out of the suggestions and tells you so at the top.
• An item couldn't be moved. It then simply stays where it was. The rest of your cart has been updated.
• An item is in two carts. If, in rare cases, Scout can't remove an item from the old supplier, it ends up in two carts. Scout shows this right away, with a button to remove it from the old supplier. Do this before you check out, or you'll order it twice.
