How it sells itself

DropSynco lets you automate and manage your Shopify stores in one place via different import methods (URL, FTP, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc.) to keep them in sync. You can schedule your CSV, XLSX, XML or JSON product file(s) feed daily, weekly or monthly, keeping your Shopify stores and inventories synced at all times.

OnbuySync connects your OnBuy seller accounts to your Shopify store and keeps orders flowing in automatically. Connect one or more OnBuy sites, choose how often to sync, and filter by order status. Match products by SKU, EAN, or barcode, and optionally create draft Shopify products for unknown items.

Key points
  • Manage your store in one place via different import methods to keep it in sync.
  • Schedule your feed tasks daily, weekly or monthly keeping your inventory synced.
  • Connect 2 or more stores to synchronize multiple store inventories or locations.
  • Automatic order import from multiple OnBuy accounts on your chosen interval
  • Product matching via SKU, EAN, or barcode with optional draft product creation
  • Fulfillment sync pushes tracking and dispatches back to OnBuy
  • Inventory mirroring keeps store stock aligned with OnBuy listings
