How it sells itself

Selling the same product under multiple listings, photos, or collections? StockTwin links every variant that shares a SKU or barcode and keeps their inventory perfectly in sync across all your locations, in real time. When one sells, the rest update instantly, so you never oversell or show wrong stock counts again.

Sync inventory between product variants sold in different quantities. When a customer buys a pack of 6, stock for packs of 1, 3, and 12 updates automatically. Set a multiplier for each variant, pick a reference, and the app keeps everything in sync via webhooks. Scheduled sync is available for stores using 3PL or external fulfillment providers. Ideal for bundles, multipacks, and wholesale quantities.

Key points
  • Sync stock across duplicate SKUs and barcodes in real time
  • Sell bundles and kits without overselling their components
  • Reserve safety stock for wholesale and off-channel sales
  • Bulk sync hundreds of SKUs, import/export setup as CSV
  • Multiplier-based stock calculation for any bundle or pack ratio
  • Real-time inventory sync between variants via Shopify webhooks
  • Scheduled sync for 3PL and external fulfillment workflows
  • Multi-location inventory filtering for complex warehouse setups
