How to integrate Pricewatch with Magento 2

What is Pricewatch?

Pricewatch is the first price comparison website on the Internet. It always looks for a comparison of technology products to bring customers the cheapest products.

Since the product data fields in Pricewatch and Magento 2 are fully compatible, store’ s admin can apply these parameters to their product data, which generates Product Feed. For the reason that Magento 2 now does not support feed generating, we need to use the added Product Feed extension by Mageplaza.
