The multichannel fulfilment solution offers sellers bundled pricing to give them a clear picture of fulfilment costs. Tracking and billing are integrated, helping reduce the time and effort it takes a business owner to keep up with the status and cost of shipments. Inventory stored in other locations, such as an existing warehouse, can be added to the platform to ensure dynamic updates as sales occur allowing for fulfilment efficiencies. Sellers also can select when the package needs to be delivered and at the same time update listings on multiple sites.

Each month sellers are billed for fulfilment, shipping of orders and inventory storage or $1,000, whichever is higher. UPS say that approximately 4-5 orders per day will place a merchant’s bill above the minimum.
