ShipStation centralizes inventory, orders, and shipping so your team can move fast, stay accurate, and keep customers informed. ![](https://www.shipstation.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/icon-158173142c6c.png) ### Never oversell again When orders hit, stock changes. That’s normal. What isn’t normal is selling the last unit twice. With Inventory Sync and clear item status inside ShipStation, you can spot low stock, split shipments when needed, and keep Shopify counts from drifting. ![](https://www.shipstation.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/icon-70d5b60f3074.png) ### Fulfill in batches, not one by one Print hundreds of labels in a few clicks, with packing slips, pick lists, and scan-to-ship workflows that new hires learn fast. Automation rules pick the right carrier and service based on what you sell, where it’s going, and what it costs. ![](https://www.shipstation.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/icon-566f6dc7e7a7.png) ### Keep your brand front and center Tracking shouldn’t feel like a handoff to the carrier. Use branded tracking pages and notifications that look like you, not them. Add a returns management portal so shoppers can self-serve and you can keep exchanges and revenue in play.

It’s the daily UI your team lives in, from order import to label print to inventory updates. Turn repeat steps into rules and stay ready for the next spike. ### Native Shopify inventory sync and order import Connect your store through our Shopify integration and your orders flow into ShipStation automatically. Set a Ship From Location, choose Shopify as your inventory source, and you’ll see Shopify stock counts right on the order. When you create shipments and send the update back, Shopify can deduct stock from the right location. That’s ecommerce inventory sync you can trust as you add warehouses.

ShipStation inventory management gives you Purchase Orders, Scan to Receive, Lot Tracking, and Reorder Assist in the same place you ship. Your team can receive stock, adjust on hand units, and plan reorders without bouncing between tabs. If you’re shopping for shopify inventory management software, start with the platform you already use to fulfill. See inventory management in action, then tie it to purchasing, receiving, and daily picking for a cleaner count across every shelf and bin each day.

Your Shopify store connects directly, so orders and customer data import into ShipStation. When you ship, tracking details can flow back to Shopify. Setup is quick, and you can scale without extra logins. ##### Can I see Shopify inventory counts in ShipStation? Yes. Link a Ship From Location to Shopify and set your inventory source to Shopify. ShipStation will display the remaining stock count on each order item so you can catch issues before you ship. ##### Will it block labels when an item is out of stock? ShipStation helps you see stock, but it won’t stop label creation if a SKU is out. That flexibility matters during backorders. You stay in control of what ships and when. ##### What does Inventory Sync do for multi-channel sellers? Inventory Sync helps keep quantities aligned across connected stores, so you don’t oversell on one channel after a sale on another. Use it as ecommerce inventory sync for Shopify plus marketplaces like Amazon and Etsy. ##### How do I set up Shopify fulfillment automation? Create automation rules that trigger when Shopify orders import. You can assign carrier and service, apply presets, or route to a Ship From Location. That saves time and keeps fulfillment consistent. ##### Can ShipStation be my hub for shopify and inventory management? Yes, especially when you sell in more places than just Shopify. ShipStation supports over a hundred integrations and keeps orders in one view. Pair shipping with inventory tools to reduce manual work and stay ready to grow. ##### Can I compare shipping rates for Shopify orders inside ShipStation? Yes. ShipStation includes Rate Shopper, so you can compare services across carriers like USPS®, UPS®, FedEx®, and DHL Express® in one place. Choose the best rate for each order or automate your selection based on your shipping rules.
