How It Works
Fulfillment Cloud runs your production floor. Commerce Cloud lets you sell without one. Choose the path that fits your business — or use both together.
The Process
You own the production floor. Fulfillment Cloud is the software OS that manages it.
Right for you if you own printers, embroidery machines, or other production equipment.
Link your marketplaces (Amazon, Etsy, TikTok, Shopify, and 15+ more) and connect your production hardware — DTF printers, embroidery machines, Brother GTX — using our guided setup wizard. Our team handles the technical side on-site.
When a customer buys on any connected channel, the order routes to your production floor automatically — queued by deadline, print type, and priority. No copy-paste, no manual sorting.
Your team fulfills the order on your own equipment. Integrated USPS, FedEx, and UPS label generation ships it directly to the customer, with tracking synced back to every marketplace automatically.
Track production output, inventory levels, revenue by channel, and team performance from one analytics dashboard. Optionally accept overflow orders from Commerce Cloud sellers as a fulfillment partner.
Not Sure Which Is Right?
Commerce Cloud
You sell. Partners produce.
No equipment, no warehouse, no staff. You design products, set prices, and sell across 18+ marketplaces. Vetted fulfillment partners print, pack, and ship every order. Nothing is produced until a customer buys.

Commerce Cloud is the selling layer — you design products, list them across marketplaces, and fulfillment partners print and ship every order. You never touch the product. Fulfillment Cloud includes everything Commerce Cloud does, plus tools to run your own production floor: job queues, equipment integration, inventory, and shipping label generation. If you own printers, you want Fulfillment Cloud. If you want to sell without owning production, Commerce Cloud is the right fit.
Fulfillment Cloud has native integrations for Brother GTX series DTG printers and most popular folding machines. DTF, sublimation, embroidery, and screen print workflows are all supported through the production queue. Commerce Cloud sellers don't need any equipment — fulfillment partners handle all production.
Commerce Cloud sellers can be live within 1–2 days — connect your stores, build your catalog, test an order, and go live. No equipment setup, no on-site visit required. Fulfillment Cloud onboarding takes 1–2 weeks because our team integrates your production equipment on-site and trains your floor staff.
Both products support 18+ direct integrations including Amazon, Walmart Marketplace, Target Plus, eBay, Etsy, TikTok Shop, Shopify, Wix, WooCommerce, and more. Through Mirakl and Acenda, a single connection adds 200+ additional channels.
Fulfillment Cloud: unlimited orders, all marketplace integrations, production queue management, inventory tracking, shipping label generation, analytics, team tools, and 24/7 support — no per-order fees. Commerce Cloud: subscription tier plus a margin fee on each order (charged on your profit, not your revenue). The Free tier is $0/month.
