Mattel, Inc., the well-known American toy manufacturer, is becoming an Open Icecat Sponsor. Thanks to that, Mattel syndicates its product content for all its brands to channel partners in the Benelux for free. Mattel, founded in 1945, has famous toy brands, including Barbie, Hot Wheels, Fisher-Price, UNO, Mega, Polly Pocket, Masters of the Universe, Scrabble, and Matchbox. Mattel is the next toy company that embraces the Icecat Toy Data Model. This model developed into a global market standard over the past years.
High-quality product content improves the online customer experience and increases online sales. The use of such data is growing every day together with the expansion of e-commerce in the toys vertical. The current dynamic is that new toy retailers connect to our database, and more and more toy brands conform to our data model when making their product content available in the Icecat Toys Catalog.
Mattel invites its e-commerce partners to collect its standardized content from Open Icecat, free of charge. Here, retailers can download Mattel digital assets. This includes product specifications, marketing texts, and brochures in Dutch and French, as well as product images and logos. Next to the basic content, users are also free to use rich media assets, such as images and videos.
What are the benefits of Open Icecat for Mattel resellers? Firstly, the Mattel product content is delivered in a timely manner, complete and complemented by localized digital assets. The content of Mattel is now available for free, immediately after registration in the Icecat catalog. Retailers have the option to download and implement the product content in various formats such as CSV, XML, JSON, or Icecat LIVE. Furthermore, to provide legal comfort, Mattel has licensed Icecat to syndicate its copyrighted materials to its channel partners.
If you are a Mattel reseller, use your Icecat account to download its free product content. In case you don’t have an account, please register online, contact your local Account Manager, or contact us online.
