Dropship products
What are dropship products in Stedger?
Dropship products are products that can be shipped directly from a supplier to your customers.
Stedger automatically updates stock, places orders and sends Track&Trace - so you don't have to do anything other than choosing what products to sell.
Dropship products are easily identifiable with the "DS" tag:
What happens when dropship products become unavailable?
Besides no longer being in stock, dropship products can become unavailable in two cases:
- If the product can no longer be dropshipped, but still can be bought wholesale.
- If the product is completely discontinued by the supplier.
In either case, Stedger will automatically set the stock to 0 (or if you use the option to "Enable/disable backorders", ordering will be disabled).
How much extra does it cost to dropship a product?
This varies for each supplier. In the end, it is the supplier's responsibility to provide the correct price and agree with you on the correct terms.
Usually a dropship fee is either added to each product or to each shipment from a specific supplier.
You can usually see the dropship fee for a product by hovering over the cost price in Stedger:
