ShipBob
ShipBob provides fulfillment services and software for ecommerce businesses, automating order picking, packing, shipping, tracking, and inventory management. Its warehouse software processes B2C orders according to each fulfillment center’s outbound SLA, which varies by location from noon to 6 p.m. local time. Product photos, digital checks during picking and packing, and merchant packaging preferences support order accuracy. Inventory tools include bundling, merging duplicates, real-time stock levels, distribution data, and reorder notifications. Analytics cover order and inventory visibility, fulfillment performance and SLA data, transit times, and demand forecasting. Native ecommerce integrations include Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Squarespace, Amazon, and Walmart. ShipBob says its fulfillment centers operate in the United States, Canada, the EU, the UK, and Australia, with carrier partnerships including UPS, USPS, FedEx, and DHL. Fulfillment quotes are customized, and kitting or other unique requirements may add costs. ShipBob software is free for customers and connects stores to manage inventory, orders, and shipments; fulfillment services have no listed price.
