What ShipBob does

Stores your inventory in its warehouses, then picks, packs and ships your store's orders, with returns and B2B handled as services.

ShipBob is an outsourced fulfillment provider for ecommerce brands. You connect your online store, send in your inventory, and ShipBob handles picking, packing and shipping, with returns offered as an additional service. Inventory can be spread across US regions through one hub, with automated replenishment, and the network covers 50+ fulfillment centers.

The vendor lists 2-day shipping for all sales channels across the continental US, and shipping to 250+ destinations for international orders, including DDP. B2B fulfillment is also offered, including automated EDI. Merchants track inventory in real time across warehouses and can set reorder alerts. Integrations come from an App Store with 50+ options, and a developer API is available for custom builds.

ShipBob also describes AI features. ShipBob MCP lets tools such as Claude, OpenAI or VS Code work with orders, inventory and shipments, and Bobby is an agent inside the dashboard that acts on plain-language requests.

On pricing, ShipBob publishes no plan prices. Fees cover implementation, receiving inventory, warehousing, and picking, packing and shipping each order, and every quote is customized per customer. The dashboard software and turnkey integrations are stated to be free. Kitting, wholesale/B2B orders and other special needs cost extra, and shipping costs depend on weight, dimensions, destination and service. To get numbers, you request a quote from a fulfillment expert.

Our take

ShipBob fits ecommerce merchants who want to hand physical fulfillment to a third party and keep order and inventory data in one dashboard. It also suits brands that need B2B, international or multi-location shipping. The trade-off is price transparency: no rates are published, so you must request a quote and cannot compare costs upfront. Kitting and B2B orders are billed extra, and shipping depends on several factors. The WMS is limited to merchants with US-based warehouses. Merchants who want to run their own warehouse alone, or need published pricing before talking to anyone, may find it a poor match.
