Install from the Shopify App Store
- Find Stockful in the Shopify App Store or search for it from your Shopify admin
- Click Add app, review the permissions, and click Install app
Choose a plan
After installing, you’ll be asked to choose a plan. All plans include every feature — they only differ in how many SKUs and locations you can track. Every new install gets a 7-day free trial with full access. See Plans & Billing for details on pricing and limits.Complete the setup wizard
The setup wizard walks you through five quick steps before tracking begins:- Sync store data — Stockful pulls your locations and product categories from Shopify (takes a few seconds)
- Choose locations — select which locations you want to track
- Set thresholds — configure your low stock and overstock thresholds, and optionally exclude products you don’t need to track (gift cards, digital products, etc.)
- Connect Slack (optional) — link your Slack workspace to receive stock alerts in a channel
- Start tracking — click the button and Stockful begins importing your full inventory data
The initial sync
After you click “Start tracking,” Stockful imports your products, variants, and current stock levels. This runs in the background — you’ll see a progress banner at the top of the app.| Store size | Estimated time |
|---|---|
| Under 1,000 variants | Under 1 minute |
| 1,000–10,000 variants | 1–5 minutes |
| 10,000–50,000 variants | 5–15 minutes |
| 50,000+ variants | 15–30 minutes |
Stockful can only track changes from the moment it’s installed. Historical data from before installation isn’t available.
