Spocket for Suppliers

1 Star – Supplier Warning

If you are thinking about becoming a Spocket Supplier, proceed with caution.

I fulfilled orders on time, shipped them the same day, and customers received them without any issues. However, when it came time to receive payouts, the experience became extremely frustrating.

The platform holds payments for a full month. When the payout date arrives, support seems to come up with a new explanation instead of providing a clear payout process. On one occasion, I was told there was a payout account issue even though support had previously confirmed everything was correct. This time, I was told no orders could be found, despite the orders being visible in my account, marked as delivered, and listed in my payout sheet.

As a supplier, I expect transparent payments, accurate records, and consistent support. Unfortunately, that has not been my experience.

My advice to other suppliers and store owners: think carefully before investing your time and resources here. Keep detailed records of every order, payout, and support conversation.

this app makes a lot of sense on paper - but it doesn’t work the way we’d like it to. because they are so intent on keeping things hands-off, your products may end up on sites you don’t want them to, and there is nothing in your power to stop these retailers (some of whom are unethical and misrepresent your products).

when there have been issues with integrating Shopify data with their app, they blame the users & take no ownership of the issues.

sales have never really been high enough to justify all the extra work involved in managing this relationship.

A month ago they were verified as a seller and silence. When I decided to check how our product was presented in their marketplace, it turned out that it was not possible to see it until you bought a paid customer subscription. Useless application, not a single sale or even a request, despite the fact that we ourselves sell directly every day. It’s completely impossible to find yourself on the site spocket.co - there is no basic search function and thousands of strangely similar products, all with 5 reviews :) looks like fakes.

Installed the app sometime in jan 2024, Till this day I have a message of "A member of our Supplier Acquisition team will reach out to you in 1-2 business days." Haven't heard from anyone

Probably one of the worst apps/sellers we have ever dealt with, not only does the app not work well, but their customer service lacks, their fees vs what they offer is ridiculous, and on top of all that they hold sales funds 25+ days after the sale. Definitely not worth it for a seller.

i have literally sold NOTHING on this app. NOTHING. And I have been on for most of 2023. Although customer service is good, so i will give this 2 stars instead of 1.

I'll be honest. I had hoped that is app was going to be great for me and my products in theory this app is a really brilliant. But it's very poor supported and lack of customer service was just not worth my time.

I'll be honest. In theory this app is a really brilliant idea. But in execution it is very poorly supported and not very easy to use as a supplier. Spocket synced all of my products with mismatched descriptions, and some without variants. As a wholesale distributor who has over 1,000 SKUs it is not the plug and play experience I was promised. I have a very large library of products and the fact that they are not able to resync the titles/descriptions/variants makes this very cumbersome for us. On top of that, once an SKU has been retired there is no way to remove it from Spocket. I have almost 100 pages of products in my Spocket catalog and maybe 3-4 pages are actually in stock and active. To any wholesalers considering Spocket, beware as it's not as easy as they make it out to be. In my one year on Spocket I have made some sales, however this is probably the smallest part of my business. I feel with better supplier integration Spocket has much more potential but until they give suppliers more control over syncing data there is no easy solution. Spocket seems to be a small team and unless you really email them they will not look into whatever issue you are dealing with. Worth a try. Maybe the process will go easier for you. For anyone wondering, I was contacted by Spocket to join and I did not install this app until they asked me to. If you install this first you may have a different onboarding process than I did.

Update: Terrible customer service, If you have a problem with an order i.e. Invalid address forget about customer service helping you. They never respond, They only have a stupid bot thing for help. Set up was easy, Well thought out, Communication has been has been good,
As thing progress I will updated this review, But so far no problems

Pricing was all messed up due to being in Canada it shows USD pricing but no indication that it is USD. When I asked support it was a big run around and delays. Then after a phone call and asking me to try the app again i realize none of the picture imported. Sigh, back to Tech support. I'm not even set up yet! Update* They don't check the issue but instead give you time wasting advise like clear your cookies and come back. There is no real support! Then they say let me get you support after tonnes of time wasted following steps that do nothing! So you wait many days for the REAL support to get back to you.
