Quick answer: Fulfyld operates without long-term contracts. There are no minimum contract lengths, no lock-in periods, and no penalties for leaving. You pay for the services you use on a month-to-month basis.
Getting Started with Fulfyld: What to Do Step by Step
Follow these steps to get your account set up and your first inventory shipment moving.
Step 1: Request a Quote
Go to fulfyld.com/get-fulfyld and complete the intake form. You’ll be asked about your monthly order volume, product type, and any relevant details about your brand. This takes a few minutes and requires no commitment.
Step 2: Review Your Pricing Proposal
A Fulfyld team member will follow up with a flat-rate pricing proposal based on your order volume, storage needs, and any additional services that apply to your products. Review it line by line; there are no hidden fees, so what’s in the proposal is what you’ll pay.
Step 3: Connect with Your Dedicated Account Manager
Once you agree to move forward, Fulfyld assigns you a dedicated account manager. They are your main point of contact from onboarding through day-to-day operations. Use this initial conversation to walk through your product catalog, packaging preferences, and any special handling requirements.
Step 4: Send In Your Inventory
Ship your inventory to Fulfyld’s warehouse following the inbound receiving instructions your account manager provides. Fulfyld covers the first 2 hours of receiving at no cost during onboarding, which helps reduce your upfront costs when getting started.
Step 5: Integrate Your Store
Connect your eCommerce platform to Fulfyld’s system. Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Amazon, and most major platforms integrate directly. Once connected, orders sync automatically — no manual input needed on your end.
Step 6: Start Fulfilling Orders
With inventory live and your store connected, Fulfyld takes it from there. Orders are picked, packed, and shipped the same day for orders received by 1 PM. You can monitor everything in real time through the Fulfyld client portal.
What You’re Actually Agreeing To When You Sign Up
When you onboard with Fulfyld, you’re agreeing to a service arrangement, not a fixed-term commitment. The relationship is built around flat-rate, transparent pricing tied to your actual usage: how many orders you ship, how much storage you use, and which additional services apply to your account.
There are no setup fees hidden in the fine print and no account management fees charged separately. What you see in the pricing proposal is what you pay.
How Fulfyld’s Pricing Is Structured Instead
Rather than locking clients in through contracts, Fulfyld uses a volume-based pricing model that becomes more cost-effective as your order volume grows. The more you ship each month, the lower your per-order and storage costs become.
This structure gives growing brands a natural incentive to stay and scale with Fulfyld rather than being held in place by a signed agreement.
Here’s a snapshot of how storage pricing scales with volume:
-
0–250 orders/month: Small bin $2.50/month, Regular bin $4.00/month
-
251–500 orders/month: Small bin $2.35/month, Regular bin $3.75/month
-
1,001–2,500 orders/month: Small bin $1.95/month, Regular bin $3.15/month
-
5,001–10,000 orders/month: Small bin $1.55/month, Regular bin $2.50/month
Shipping costs follow the same logic; volume brings the per-order rate down, giving you more room on margin as you grow.
Why This Pricing Structure Matters
Contract flexibility is a cash-flow issue, not just a preference. A brand doing $40,000 per month in revenue can’t absorb a $15,000 early-termination fee because a 3PL missed its 2-day fulfillment window three weeks running.
Month-to-month terms shift accountability onto the provider. When Fulfyld knows you can leave without penalty, the dedicated account manager assigned to your account has a real incentive to resolve problems fast rather than stall until your contract auto-renews.
The counterargument some ops leads make: longer contracts can lock in lower per-unit rates. But a lower rate inside a bad operational fit costs more than a slightly higher rate inside a partnership that ships accurately and on time.
Start Fulfillment Without the Long-term Lock-in
Fulfyld doesn’t require a multi-year commitment before you can access dedicated account management, 2-day guaranteed fulfillment, or kitting and bundling services. Your dedicated account manager walks you through onboarding, rate structures, and volume expectations before you sign anything, so you know exactly what you’re agreeing to.
