Overview of Instant Inventory

What Instant Inventory is, who can use it, how setup works, and the ways to add a live Rapaport Trade diamond feed to your website.

Written by Philippa Corrick

Rapaport Trade Instant Inventory lets retailers show Rapaport Trade-listed diamonds on their own websites, without holding physical stock.

Use it to expand what you offer online, create more sales opportunities and grow your business with minimal overhead.


Key benefits

  • Offer thousands of diamonds on your website straight away

  • Choose your preferred suppliers and pricing

  • Integrate with your website using easy-to-implement tools

  • Give customers real-time availability, including images and videos

  • No upfront inventory cost: only pay for what you sell


Who can use Instant Inventory?

  • All Rapaport Trade members can create and preview a diamond feed.

  • To publish the feed live, contact your Rapaport Trade Account Manager to activate a free one-month trial or a full paid subscription.

To publish a feed, you must:

  • have an active Rapaport Trade membership

  • provide proof of an e-commerce retail website

If you're not a member yet, you first need to join Rapaport Trade and submit verification documents.

  1. Fill in your basic settings (company name, website, email, currency).

  2. Choose your diamond criteria.

  3. Select the suppliers you want to work with.

  4. Set your pricing markup.

Integration options

You can add Instant Inventory to your website in two ways:

  • Widget: an easy-to-use, mobile-friendly interface you can embed on your site with minimal coding.

  • API: full control over the look, feel and functionality of your diamond feed.

Good to know: Instant Inventory doesn't include a built-in payment solution. You handle checkout and transactions through your own e-commerce platform.


Images and videos

Instant Inventory supports high-quality images and videos, which make your website more appealing and help engage customers. Depending on what each supplier provides, listings may include:

  • still images

  • 360° diamond videos

  • gemologist reports and certificates
