ShipBuddies combines direct Etsy integration with inventory storage, picking, packing and shipping. If packing orders is taking time away from making products and running your shop, we can help you review the move to outsourced fulfillment.
Tell us what you sell, how many orders you ship and what each order needs before it can leave. We will discuss your products, order setup and packing requirements before you move inventory. Still planning your process? Start with our Etsy order fulfillment guide.
Four parts of the setup to review before your first shipment.
ShipBuddies connects directly with Etsy. Review the order details, inventory settings and shipment updates for your shop during setup. Test a normal order and any personalization, bundle or gift-message requirements before releasing regular orders, so the fulfillment process matches the way your shop sells.
Give each stocked size, color or other product variant a distinct SKU. Tell us which products are finished and ready to ship, and which still need personalization or production. We can review storage and handling requirements, how stock will be received, and the inventory information you need to manage your shop.
Share the packaging, inserts, gift messages or bundle requirements for your orders. Confirm the supported work, materials and charges during setup. If a product needs making, engraving or other customization, discuss that separately rather than assuming it is included in pick-and-pack fulfillment. Agree on return-handling instructions too.
Review shipping options for your package sizes and customer destinations, including international orders. Confirm the applicable dispatch schedule and how tracking will reach the Etsy order. Dispatch timing and carrier transit time are different. Confirm both before setting delivery expectations with buyers.
Send us a short description of your shop and its fulfillment needs. We can discuss service fit, the proposed order setup and pricing, including any special handling.
You remain responsible for your Etsy shop and buyer commitments. During setup, confirm who handles physical returns, buyer messages, refunds and replacement authorizations. For more planning questions, see our guide to choosing a third-party Etsy fulfillment provider.
