FAQs

What are the benefits of your Shopify fulfilment service?

Answer: Our Shopify focused fulfilment service provides customers with insight into their inventory, live updates on dispatch and returns, as well as how often you should restock products.

Making sure your best sellers are always available is critical for any eCommerce business – a general rule of thumb is 80% of your sales will come from 20% of your stock. It’s also critical to deliver on your promises to customers, so James and James’ industry-leading 99.999% pick and pack accuracy is imperative for any business wanting to provide their customers with a premium experience.

Our innovative, customer-friendly technology platform has been specifically designed for eCommerce businesses to easily integrate with Shopify, as well as other marketplaces. ControlPort is our award-winning fulfilment software which gives customers complete control over their order and inventory management at their fingertips.

What does the fulfillment process look like?

Answer: At James and James, we’ll receive stock from your suppliers and store it in one of our fulfilment centres. Barcodes, product photos, weights and dimensions are recorded accurately in our Shopify inventory management software, ControlPort.

ControlPort integrates with Shopify and other marketplaces with ease, retrieving orders as they come in. The fulfilment centre team will pick and pack your orders, giving you the time to focus on scaling up your business and monitoring sales.

We ship 98% of our orders on the same day and you can monitor your order fulfilment live through our ControlPort software. Our accuracy ensures product returns are kept to a minimum but should your customers want to return parcels, our software makes it easy. Plus, you’ll have access to data based on those reasons for returns.

Why should you outsource your Shopify order fulfilment?

Answer: Outsourcing using ControlPort will offer you an all-in-one solution that directly integrates with your online store, allowing you to manage your stock, fulfil your orders and handle any returns.

Save money – not having your own fulfilment centre and the cost of fulfilment centre staff will provide a more cost-effective solution to your Shopify order fulfilment. Not only will your overheads be kept as low as possible, outsourcing fulfilment also minimises any hassle of dealing with picking, packing and returns, allowing you to focus on scaling your business.

Understanding your customers and identifying buying trends is key for any eCommerce business. The real-time ViewPort interface as well as insightful reports help businesses understand their sales mix, seasonality and customer behaviour in great detail.

What are the fulfilment services that you can integrate with your Shopify store?

Answer: Our award-winning ControlPort technology will integrate with your Shopify store, allowing you full control of your stock management, order status, picking, packing and returns.

The dashboard will also provide you with reports and insights into product performance, pick and pack times and returns, to give you actionable insight into your entire fulfilment process.

Many of our customers use the insights collected from our Shopify order fulfilment to spot product trends, identify changes to their sales mix, as well as helping to understand their customers.

Our fulfilment centre team ensure our 99.999% pick and pack guarantee is met and our fulfilment technology also prevents mispicks and mispacks, to keep your customers happy. If a picker accidentally mispicks an order, our technology will notify them immediately with a picture of the correct product, helping to eliminate human error.

How do you set up fulfilment on Shopify?

Answer: Setting up your Shopify store with our software is easy and can be done with a few simple clicks. One of our onboarding specialists will provide you with access to our ControlPort software and all you have to do is copy and paste your Shopify URL, API key and password in.

The integration can take up to 24 hours but our onboarding team will test everything and get you up and running as soon as possible.
