How to connect ATD to Tire Base, my website, and my B2B portal?

This process works in apps: TB Sync

This article will teach you how to connect ATD Ship to Store with your ATD location number so that inventory shows in TB Sync, on your B2B portal, on a B2C widget, and through the API.

ATD (American Tire Distributors) does not use Tire Connect. Tire Base connects to ATD directly. In TB Sync, choose ATD – Ship to Store. You need the ATD location number from the ATD dealer portal or from an ATD account statement. Tire Base whitelists that number on the Tire Base ATD account. You do not paste an API key, a username, or a password. Ship to Home is not on this screen.

ATD Ship to Store asks for the location number, maps Local, Local+, and Nationwide, then Request Whitelist.

Each supplier uses one vendor connection. Your TB Sync plan includes a set of connections. Every connection past that set is a vendor connection add-on.

Steps

Find the ATD location number. It is digits only, from the ATD dealer portal or the ATD account statement.
Open TB Sync → Vendors → Vendor Connection. Choose ATD – Ship to Store. That is the direct connection.
Enter ATD Location Number. Link a vendor — search an existing Books vendor or create one. Purchase orders for ATD post to that vendor.
Under ATD quantity, map Local (the branch that serves you), Local+ (nearby branches, next day), and Nationwide to distribution centers. Not shown on B2B hides that quantity from dealers. Dealers see the center name, not ATD.
Click Request Whitelist. Tire Base holds the API credentials. You are notified when the location is active, typically within one business day.
Open Inventory and search a size or part number. ATD appears next to your warehouse so the team can compare cost and quantity.
To sell it: Sales Channels → your B2B portal → Vendors & Brands, and include this connection. On a B2C Widget channel, select this connection so your website can price ATD stock as your out-the-door price. For your own project or agent, create an API key and call POST /v1/sync/inventory-search.
This card is Ship to Store only. Orders ship to your store address. Each ATD connection uses one vendor-connection slot.

Conclusion & best practices

ATD does not use Tire Connect. If Request Whitelist fails, re-check the location number for that exact shop. Do not ask ATD for an API key. Each supplier uses one vendor connection. Your TB Sync plan includes a set of connections. Every connection past that set is a vendor connection add-on. Related: How to connect wholesale tire suppliers in Tire Base?. API: Universal API.
