How do WooCommerce and Shopify work together?

You pick the system of truth (usually the ERP or store for stock). Wherehouse keeps WooCommerce and Shopify in step: stock, orders and pricing flow with your rules, so you are not recapturing data between them. A dedicated account manager sets this up with example orders first.

Does WooCommerce support multiple warehouses?

Not natively. WooCommerce tracks a single stock location. If you need per-warehouse stock, the ERP should be the truth and WooCommerce becomes a channel. We will say that up front rather than pretend otherwise.

Do I need a WordPress plugin?

For variable products, yes: the free Wherehouse plugin. It is also what prevents duplicate orders and stops marketplace buyers getting a second WooCommerce email.

Can I keep my theme and checkout?

Yes. We do not replatform you. WooCommerce stays your store. Wherehouse is the connection to marketplaces, ERP and accounting.

Should marketplace orders go into Shopify?

Only if Shopify holds master stock. Then we write Takealot, Makro and Amazon orders into Shopify so inventory decrements. If Cin7, Unleashed or Xero is the hub, Shopify stays a storefront and we pull Shopify orders out instead. Ask us this first. It is the whole design.

Do you support Shopify variants?

Yes. Each variant is its own SKU for marketplace stock and price. We can still group them back into one Shopify product when that is how the store is built.

Will this replace the Shopify apps I already use?

For marketplace stock, orders and fees, yes, that is the job. Shopify stays your storefront. Wherehouse is how it talks to Takealot, Makro, Amazon and the ERP, with rules those apps do not have.

Is there a setup fee?

No. There are no setup fees on any plan. During onboarding we ingest your catalogue and sync a couple of test orders and products, so you know it works before you rely on it. You only pay once the account is live. Billed monthly. Cancel any time.

WooCommerce & Shopify integration

Connect WooCommerce and Shopify without the double work.

Two systems, one picture:

WooCommerce and Shopify stay in step: stock, orders and pricing flow with the rules you already run, so adding a channel does not add a second admin job.

Two platforms should not mean two jobs.

Every extra login is another place to update stock, recapture orders and reconcile fees. That is how overselling and messy books start. WooCommerce and Shopify should share one picture, with your rules on top.

🔄 Store and marketplaces, one availability

When a unit sells on the store, Takealot cannot still show it. The same WooCommerce catalogue can feed every marketplace you add, without a second stock count.

🎨 Variations included

Variable products need the free Wherehouse WordPress plugin. It also stops duplicate orders and suppresses customer emails for marketplace-origin sales.

🧭 You pick the role

ERP as truth, Shopify as one storefront. Or Shopify as the stock hub, with Takealot and Makro orders writing in so inventory decrements like a store sale. We set that with you, because it flips the flow.

Your rules, not a generic sync

How it works

Connect both

Your WooCommerce account and your Shopify account. You pick which one holds the truth.

See the flow

Stock, orders and pricing should move one way, on purpose. We map that to how you already operate, not a generic template.

Apply your rules

Buffers, price uplifts, which SKUs are allowed. A rule can apply to one platform and leave the other alone.

Stay in step

WooCommerce and Shopify keep sharing the live picture in the background.
