Retail inventory tracking software connected to your entire shipping workflow

ShipStation brings inventory and shipping into one flow. Manage orders from all your sales channels in one place, keep stock in sync in real time, and route orders without extra steps. Rate Shopper helps you find the best rates across 200+ carriers, so you can move faster without overspending. Inventory Sync keeps your counts accurate across every store. Fewer oversells. Faster fulfillment.

Retail inventory control from dock to doorstep

Stop chasing counts across tabs. ShipStation ties retail inventory software to order management, carrier rate shopping, and customer updates, so your team moves fast and your shoppers get what they ordered.

Omnichannel inventory tracking that prevents oversells

Selling on Amazon, Shopify, eBay, and Etsy is great. Keeping stock aligned isn’t. With ShipStation Inventory Sync, every shipped item deducts from available stock, then pushes the new count back to your channels. Your listings stay accurate, and your staff stops doing manual edits at midnight.

POS inventory tracking that connects to fulfillment

If you run a store or pop-up, inventory still has to land in the right box. ShipStation imports orders from your ecommerce platforms and marketplaces, and it can also support custom connections through the ShipStation API. That means your POS inventory tracking and online orders can feed one pick-pack-ship queue.

Retail stock management your customers can feel

Inventory errors show up as late shipments, backorders, and support tickets. ShipStation keeps retail stock management close to the label, so you can block shipments with out-of-stock items, send branded tracking, and offer self-serve returns. You protect trust while your team keeps pace.

Inventory tracking and automation that scales with you

ShipStation pairs built-in inventory tools with shipping workflows you already use. Set locations, receive stock, forecast reorders, and automate carrier choices. It’s one dashboard for omnichannel inventory tracking and fast delivery.

Make ShipStation the source of truth with Inventory Sync

Connect your stores and marketplaces, then let ShipStation do the updates. When an order imports, ships, or you restock, Inventory Sync adjusts available stock and pushes it out to the channels you sell on. You’ll spend less time reconciling counts and more time shipping on time. Works well for fast movers and seasonal drops.

Track retail inventory by warehouse, aisle, and bin

Set up inventory warehouses and link them to your Ship From Locations. Map real spots, like Aisle 3, Row B, Bin 24. Add locations to packing slips so pickers find items fast. You can even use barcode scanning to reduce mis-picks before you print that batch label.

Stay ahead of demand with Reorder Assist and purchase orders

Reorder Assist uses your sales history to suggest what to restock and when. Build purchase orders inside ShipStation, receive items as they arrive, and watch stock levels update across channels. Set reorder thresholds, get low stock alerts, and keep best sellers available without tying up cash in the wrong SKU.

Automate shipping decisions while you compare carrier rates

ShipStation automation rules assign tags and choose a service based on weight, destination, or SKU. Rate shop across carriers like UPS®, FedEx®, USPS®, and DHL Express® to find a cost-effective option that meets your delivery promise. Print labels in bulk and send branded tracking pages. Ship from anywhere with the mobile app.
