Cin7 + Shopify Integration
Sell More. Stress Less. Keep Your Inventory in Sync.
Cin7 connects directly with Shopify so your stock levels, orders, and product data stay perfectly in sync. Whether you're running one or multiple Shopify stores or juggling multiple sales channels alongside it, Cin7 gives you real time order and inventory data in one connected platform so you can focus on growing your business instead of chasing down discrepancies.
Whether you're a fast-growing DTC brand or a multi-channel retailer juggling wholesale and e-commerce, Cin7 and Shopify are better together.
Real-time inventory sync across every channel: What sells on Shopify instantly updates everywhere.
Automatic order management: Orders flow from Shopify straight into Cin7, ready to pick, pack, and ship.
Accurate stock levels, always: Say goodbye to overselling and the awkward "sorry, we're actually out of stock" emails.
Built to scale with you: Whether you're shipping 50 orders a month or 5,000, Cin7 keeps up.
How the integration works
Connecting Cin7 and Shopify Is Easier Than You Think
Getting Cin7 and Shopify talking to each other is straightforward. Once they’re connected, the whole thing runs in the background so you don't have to think about it.
Here's what happens when you connect the two:
- Orders sync automatically: Every Shopify order flows into Cin7 in real time, ready for fulfillment.
- Inventory updates instantly: When stock moves, whether through a sale, a return, or a manual adjustment, both platforms reflect the change right away.
- Product data stays consistent: SKUs, variants, pricing, and product details stay aligned between Shopify and Cin7, so nothing gets lost in translation.
- Returns are handled cleanly: When a customer returns an item, Cin7 updates your stock levels automatically, keeping your numbers accurate without any extra work on your end.
- Reporting gets smarter: With all your Shopify data flowing into Cin7, you get richer reporting and better insights into what's selling, what's not, and where your biggest opportunities are.
The result? Less time firefighting inventory problems. More time building the business you actually want to run.

The Businesses That Get It, Get Results
Cin7 helps product-based businesses run leaner, smarter operations — without the price tag of a traditional enterprise system. When you pair that with Shopify's selling power, good things happen.
If I look at Xero, I see the same number in Xero that came from Cin7. I look at Shopify in that sales order and I see that here, I go to ShipStation and I see that same order. I'm not seeing different data.

Real Ways Cin7 and Shopify Work Better Together
From the moment a customer clicks "buy" to the moment the package lands on their doorstep, Cin7 and Shopify keep everything connected, accurate, and moving.
Inventory Accuracy
Always Know What You've Got
Every sale on your Shopify store automatically updates your inventory in Cin7 and vice versa. That means your stock levels are accurate, your team is working from the same numbers, and your customers are happy.
Order Management
Orders, Handled Automatically
When an order comes in through Shopify, it flows into Cin7 without you lifting a finger. From there, you can pick, pack, ship, and track your orders all in one place. No manual data entry or copy-pasting between systems.
Multi-Channel Selling
Sell Everywhere, Manage It All in One Place
Shopify is just one of your channels. Cin7 connects them all. Whether you're also selling on Amazon, Faire, eBay, or through your own B2B wholesale portal, Cin7 keeps your inventory synced across every single one.
Demand Forecasting
Stop Guessing. Start Planning.
Cin7's AI-driven demand forecasting uses your Shopify sales history, and data from every other sales channel, to help you predict what you'll need and when you’ll need it. So you're not scrambling. You're just prepared.
Multi-Location Management
One Store, Multiple Warehouses? No Problem.
Got stock spread across multiple warehouses or fulfillment centers? Cin7 gives you full visibility across every location and routes orders to the right place. Giving you fast fulfillment and peace of mind.
Purchasing & Replenishment
Reorder Before You Run Out
Cin7 tracks your stock levels in real time and alerts you when it's time to reorder. So you're never caught short. Set reorder points, automate purchase orders, and keep your Shopify store stocked and ready to sell.
Your Shopify Store Deserves a Smarter Back End
Shopify is one of the world's most popular e-commerce platforms. It makes selling online fast, flexible, and genuinely enjoyable. But as your business grows, Shopify's native inventory tools can start to feel a little... stretched. As you add SKUs, locations, and sales channels you’re suddenly spending more time managing spreadsheets than managing your business.
That's where Cin7 comes in. We're an inventory management software (IMS) built specifically for product-based businesses that need more control, more visibility, and more automation than a standalone e-commerce platform can offer. Connect Cin7 to your Shopify store and you'll have a back end that actually keeps pace with your front end. Cin7 syncs stock, automates orders, and gives you the kind of operational clarity that helps you make smarter decisions every single day.
Think of it this way: Shopify is your storefront. Cin7 is everything behind it.

Got questions? We've got answers. Here's what product-based businesses most commonly ask us about connecting Cin7 with Shopify.

Yes! If you're using Shopify POS for in-person sales alongside your online store, Cin7 can sync inventory across both so your in-store and online stock levels always reflect reality.
Does Cin7 replace Shopify?

How does inventory sync work between Cin7 and Shopify?
When a sale is made on Shopify, Cin7 automatically updates your stock levels in real time. And when you adjust inventory in Cin7. Whether that order comes from a purchase order, a return, or a stocktake, those changes push back to Shopify too. It's a two-way sync that keeps everything accurate.

Yes! If you're running more than one Shopify store, Cin7 can connect to multiple stores and manage inventory across all of them from a single platform.
Does Cin7 support Shopify and other sales channels at the same time?
Absolutely. That's actually one of Cin7's biggest strengths. You can connect Shopify alongside Amazon, eBay, Faire, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and more. You can manage all your inventory from one central place. No more logging into five different platforms to figure out what you've got left.
Is the Cin7 + Shopify integration suitable for high-volume sellers?
Yes, it's built to grow with you. Whether you're processing hundreds of orders a day or thousands, Cin7 handles the volume without breaking a sweat. As your business scales, Cin7 scales with it.
