How it sells itself

ChannelChain verbindt je Shopify webshop met Europese marktplaatsen in één dashboard. Beheer je voorraad en inkoop. Orders van al je kanalen worden automatisch gesynchroniseerd en gecombineerd weergegeven. Je voorraad blijft op alle platformen up-to-date. Klantenservice berichten van Shopify, Bol.com e-mail en andere kanalen komen samen in één inbox waar je direct kunt reageren.

It syncs your products and sales, ranks what needs reordering by urgency, and turns the plan into supplier purchase orders you can edit, email, or download as a PDF. When boxes arrive, receive them fully or partially and stock is written back to Shopify automatically. Import your Stocky export in one click to restore suppliers, costs, and PO history. Works for any store that reorders from suppliers.
