Ship every drop same-day by 1PM, hands-off
Here is the path every order takes once your system is connected. No CSV uploads, no copying tracking numbers by hand.
Run your Big Cartel shop, we handle the shipping
The order reaches Fulfyld automatically over the Big Cartel connection and lands in Shipedge, the warehouse system our team runs on.
Set your shipping rules once, not every order
Shipedge reads the shipping method on the order and maps it to the carrier service set up for your account. Each SKU is matched to the product on our shelves.
Catch wrong items before they reach the box
Our pick and pack process scans every item against the order before packing. A wrong SKU, variant or quantity is flagged and held, and the label prints only for the carrier service mapped to it.
Beat the 1PM cutoff and ship the same day
Orders in by 1PM Central ship the same business day, direct with USPS, UPS or FedEx, out of our dock in Madison, Alabama. No consolidators.
Stop copying tracking numbers by hand
The tracking number is returned to the Big Cartel order automatically the moment it ships, so you never copy one across.
Keep stock counts right on every channel
Every pick, restocked return and received shipment updates your available stock, and the new figure reaches Big Cartel and every connected channel within minutes.
Stop overselling with stock synced in minutes
The order fulfillment integration for Big Cartel is a two-way, near real-time sync: orders come in, and tracking and stock go back out.
| Data | Direction | When |
|---|---|---|
| Store orders | Big Cartel → Fulfyld | Pulled from your Big Cartel store as they are placed |
| Shipping option | Big Cartel → Fulfyld | Read per order and tied to a carrier at setup |
| Tracking numbers | Fulfyld → Big Cartel | Returned to Big Cartel the moment a parcel ships |
| Available inventory | Fulfyld → Big Cartel | Pushed to Big Cartel within minutes of a change |
| Restocked returns | Fulfyld → Big Cartel | Added back to available stock after inspection |
| Product SKUs | You → Fulfyld | Loaded from your SKU template at onboarding; add new SKUs anytime |
One stock pool feeds every channel. Run Etsy, Amazon or your own site beside Big Cartel, and a sale on any of them lowers the count sent to all of them.
Go live on Big Cartel in under 7 days, no code
Six steps from our onboarding checklist, nothing technical. Moving your Big Cartel fulfilment to Fulfyld takes less than 7 days.
Fill in one SKU and shipping sheet
You get an SKU and shipping method Excel template to fill in with your products and the shipping names you use. We load the SKUs and map each method to a carrier service.
Connect your system, then prove it with a test order
Connect your Big Cartel store, or let your account manager link it. A one-unit test order then confirms orders, labels and tracking move end to end.
Put your logo on every packing slip
Standard boxes, poly and bubble mailers, tape and void fill are included. Add your black-and-white logo to the packing slip, or send us your own custom packaging.
Master the dashboard in one 45-minute call
A 45-minute Zoom demo teaches you how to use the Shipedge dashboard, where orders, stock and returns sit in one place.
Ship in first stock with 2 free receiving hours
Submit a replenishment in Shipedge before your stock ships; your first receipt includes 2 hours of free receiving.
Pick a go-live day, Tuesday to Friday
Go-lives run Tuesday to Friday. From then on, orders in by 1PM CT ship the same business day.
Put a Big Cartel 3PL through these 6 checks before you sign
Big Cartel keeps selling simple for makers, so your 3PL should take the packing off your bench without adding complexity. These are the six things to confirm, and how Fulfyld answers each.
Skip the CSV uploads and connect by API
Big Cartel passes orders and stock to connected systems through its store connection, so a routine that trades CSV files leaves a window to oversell a limited drop. Fulfyld runs on that connection into Shipedge, so an order is in our queue seconds after checkout and corrections return the same way.
Orders held for review wait in the Fulfyld client portal until you release them, with CSV bulk upload kept as a backup.
Know why the API comes before MCP
An API is how two systems swap data: Big Cartel sends an order, the 3PL returns tracking and quantity. MCP is a newer standard for connecting AI tools to business software, usually built on top of an existing API, so the 3PL’s API is still the foundation.
Fulfyld connects to Big Cartel over that store link. For a custom setup or a channel without a ready connection, Fulfyld provides documentation for its open API.
Demand two-way, real-time sync or risk overselling
A one-way feed only sends orders out. The return leg — tracking, status and quantity within minutes — is what keeps a limited drop from selling past the shelf.
Fulfyld updates your Big Cartel quantity within minutes of every pick, restocked return and received shipment, and pushes tracking to the order automatically.
Check they can scale with a drop that takes off
A single release can spike orders overnight, and a packing setup that works at ten orders a day buckles at a thousand.
Fulfyld absorbs the spike: the same flat rate, same-day dispatch by 1PM CT and 99.9% pick accuracy hold whether a drop brings ten orders or ten thousand.
Map bundles and gift notes before your first order
A bundle sold as one product has one SKU, but the warehouse picks every piece. A gift message sits in its own order field. A good integration maps the bundle to its component SKUs and the note to the packing slip.
Fulfyld maps bundles and variants to their component SKUs, so each item is picked and counted on its own, and kits can be pre-assembled and stored as one SKU.
Make sure returns flow back, not just orders out
Each return should tie back to its original order, so your refund and your stock count match.
Fulfyld receives, inspects and restocks returns, and the corrected count reaches Big Cartel within minutes.
Know every fee before you sign, no surprises
Fulfyld folds the shipping label and postage, pick & pack with 5 free picks, and standard packaging into one flat per-order rate, and lists every other fee up front. No hidden fees.
| Fee | Rate |
|---|---|
| Big Cartel integration | $0, unlimited stores |
| Flat per-order rate | Covers postage and label, pick & pack of the first 5 items, and standard packaging |
| Extra picks | $0.50 per item after the first 5 |
| Receiving | $40/hour; 2 hours free on your first receipt |
| Storage (501–1,000 orders/mo) | Small bin $2.20, regular bin $3.50, X-large bin $5.25, pallet $28.00 per month; cheaper as volume grows |
| Returns processing | $3.50 first item, $0.50 each additional |
| Account management | $0, dedicated account manager included |
Example: at 501–1,000 orders a month, a 4–12 oz order with standard shipping (2–5 days) averages $7.74+, postage included. Every volume tier is on our 3PL fulfillment pricing page, and your exact rate comes back in one business day.
Scale from your first drop to 5,000+ orders a month
Three things decide whether a 3PL fits: how many orders you ship a month, where your customers are, and what you sell.
Pay less for storage as you grow
Fulfyld is built for brands shipping 500 to 5,000+ orders a month, and storage rates drop at higher volume tiers.
Ship from one hub with zero hand-offs
One warehouse, zero hand-offs, shipping direct with USPS, UPS and FedEx. No consolidators.
Promise 2-day delivery right at checkout
With our 2-day fulfillment, we let shoppers know which addresses we can reach within two days while they are checking out.
Sell beyond the US from the same stock
International shipping is available. At 501–1,000 orders a month, a 4–12 oz international order shows an average cost of $10.27+.
Ship fragile, heavy and kitted products too
Our fragile goods fulfillment builds packaging around each item with foam and bubble wrap, and big & bulky fulfillment moves heavy goods on forklifts and pallet jacks, strapped and labeled.
