Free up to 30 orders/month, then $29/mo (Pro 100) up to $179/mo (Pro 2K). Covers Amazon, eBay, Etsy, Walmart, Google Shopping plus Shopify/BigCommerce/WooCommerce storefronts. It's owned by GoDaddy and does the core job - one catalog, synced inventory, pooled orders - without an implementation project.\n2. **Veeqo** - free, because Amazon owns it and uses it to pull sellers into Buy Shipping. Genuinely good shipping-rate access and order/inventory management. Best fit if Amazon is your biggest channel; weaker if you want it to be channel-neutral.\n\n**If you're mid-market and outgrowing spreadsheets**\n\n3. **Linnworks** - the default pick for multichannel retailers scaling up. Strong automation rules and listing management across a wide channel set. Flat fee up to about $1,499/mo with an order cap, so watch the overage terms.\n4. **Sellercloud** - my pick over Linnworks if you're high-volume with messy, specific workflows (kitting, multi-warehouse, FBA mixed with your own fulfil", "answer_truncated": true, "measurement": "One answer from one engine on one date.
