Canal for Suppliers

Initially, Canal was a great app; however, that didn't last. Their site claims "When a proposal is accepted, it’s smooth sailing....You’ll fulfill and ship on behalf of your Retailer, and get paid out via Stripe on a weekly basis. More brand awareness and money in the bank – it’s that easy."

Unfortunately, we stopped getting paid for orders shipped. We're a small brand, but we we were working with some well known sites. We tried reaching out to them directly with no luck. Canal customer service kept telling us they were working on it. We got paid for a few orders, but not all. And it has been months. We removed our products from the associated sites and will now be removing the app.

Update: Canal eventually did pay us for the outstanding orders.

Absolutely seamless integration and a *total game-changer*-- Canal has literally become our gold standard for partner integrations. No more 3rd party portals, spreadsheet hacks, death-by-email, and staff burnout trying to onboard, maintain, and scale(!) new vendor partners. Goodbye to the headache of managing inventory (especially for products with short shelf-life), and of course, handling fulfillment for third-party products. This integration eliminates the need to ship a product multiple times before it ever reaches the consumer and for those of us trying to be good stewards of our planet's resources and reduce our carbon footprint, that is HUGE. To sum it up: It’s the bee's knees of integrations and the most useful app I’ve ever used in e-commerce, hands down.

The best app for cross-selling opportunities. Very easy to use and onboard and they have a great ecosystem of brands to work with. Great customer success team as well.
