Ecommerce · Shopify ↔ 3PL

Shopify and your 3PL, connected in 14 days.

Orders fall through the cracks because Shopify and your 3PL don't talk in real time. Aduno gets them connected in 14 days — fixed price — and then keeps every order, inventory update, and tracking confirmation flowing automatically.

What real Shopify ↔ 3PL integration requires

Most "connectors" are one-way. Real integration means orders out, inventory in, tracking back, and exception handling end-to-end. Anything less and the cracks show on your shipping windows.

Real-time order push

Every Shopify order must reach your 3PL within minutes — not nightly batch. Aduno pushes the moment the order is paid, with all the line, shipping, and customer detail your 3PL needs.

Inventory sync (both ways)

Your 3PL is the source of truth on stock. Aduno syncs available units back to Shopify continuously — so you stop overselling on the moment a unit ships, not next morning.

Tracking + delivery confirmation

When the 3PL ships, the tracking number, carrier, and shipping date go straight back to Shopify so the customer notification fires automatically. No manual copy-paste.

Returns + exception handling

Returns, refunds, partial shipments, and stockouts all need a path. Aduno surfaces every exception to your team with the data already correlated — Shopify order, 3PL pick, customer.

14 days, four milestones

Fixed scope, fixed price. The platform handles the connection; an Aduno engineer pairs with you on the cutover.

Step 1
Day 1

Scoping call

We confirm your Shopify store, your 3PL provider (ShipBob, ShipMonk, ShipHero, Whistl, Yusen, or any others), the SKU range, and the channels you sell on (Shopify only, or also Amazon / TikTok Shop / wholesale).

Step 2
Days 2–6

Connect & map

We connect Shopify and your 3PL via their APIs. Our AI builds the mappings for orders, inventory, tracking, and returns. No flow diagrams, no consultants.

Step 3
Days 7–11

Test cycle

Test orders flow through end-to-end. Every Shopify order reaches the 3PL, every shipment posts back. We catch every edge case (zero-quantity, gift cards, mixed shipments) before going live.

Step 4
Days 12–14

Go live

First production orders flow through. We monitor the next 50 transactions and surface any anomaly — overshipments, stuck stock, mismatched tracking — before your customers notice.

Aduno vs the ecommerce middleware

Celigo, Patchworks, Stitch Labs, hand-built connectors. Same outcome — very different time, price, and operational coverage.

Frequently asked

Which 3PLs does Aduno work with?

Any 3PL that exposes a public API or supports SFTP/EDI file drops — which is essentially all of them now. ShipBob, ShipMonk, ShipHero, Whistl, Yusen, eStore Logistics, and most regional 3PLs are all connectable. If yours uses a custom format, our AI mapping handles that too.

We use a custom WMS, not a 3PL — can you still connect it?

Yes. Aduno's AI mapping works with any system that exposes data — REST APIs, GraphQL, SFTP file drops, or even CSV exports. Custom WMS deployments are some of the most common integrations we ship.

What if our Shopify SKUs don't match the 3PL's part numbers?

This is the most common gotcha. Aduno's mapping engine handles SKU translation — so if your Shopify product is "COFFEE-DARK-12OZ" and the 3PL knows it as "SKU-44721", the mapping translates both ways automatically and surfaces any unmapped SKU before you ship.

We sell on Shopify, Amazon, and wholesale — does Aduno handle multi-channel?

Yes. The same platform connects Amazon, Shopify, BigCommerce, retail EDI, and wholesale order channels into a single flow to your 3PL. No per-channel add-ons; the channels share inventory and order state.

What does the 14-day connection guarantee actually mean?

If we don't have you sending validated test orders end-to-end (Shopify → 3PL → tracking back) within 14 days of kickoff, your fee is refunded. The platform monitors the first 50 production transactions automatically.
