WARNNING.

I recently embarked on a journey with Spocket, opting for their 14-day trial for 99 cents, eager to explore the opportunities it could offer to my Shopify store. However, my experience was less than pleasant. I found myself unable to connect to my Shopify account without being charged 99 cents repeatedly, preventing me from even sampling the services Spocket promises.

I understand that for many of us, launching and running our own business is a cherished dream, and the financial aspect of it is crucial. We venture into such services to enhance our businesses, not to encounter unnecessary financial strains. Therefore, it is pivotal that we make informed decisions to protect our aspirations and hard-earned money from high-risk situations.

Below, I have summarized the prevalent complaints about this app. My intention is not to disparage any service but to share my experience so that you can make informed decisions and potentially save yourselves from unfavorable experiences.

I sincerely hope this information is helpful to you, and I wish you all success and fulfillment in your entrepreneurial journey. May your businesses flourish and your experiences be fruitful and rewarding!

Everything I selected for my site was “premium”, requiring a higher monthly rate. I tried to contact them and got a bot. I removed this app.

No worth it! The pictures of the items are very minimal. Not enough information about the products and the pricing are not the prices directly from manufacturers or brands. They are all from drop shippers...so it's drop shipper ordering from another drop shipper. In other words, you'll end up paying more!

Spocket needs to rethink its strategy, layout design, efficiency, and better subscriptions deals.

Basic plans will not allow you to import product. So frustrated and terrible app for beginners like me.

Don't be fooled. Shipping costs are super high. They dropship from Ali Express to dropshippers, taking all of your profit forcing you to have to sell at higher costs. Just google suppliers in your niche in the U.S. with the word "dropship" after it and find a direct link. Its usually easy to sign up and fast 3-5 day shipping with 1-2 day processing. Fu** These guys and apps and others like this that keep trying to be cloaked middle men out there. LET THE PLAYING FIELDS BE FAIR YOU ASSHOLES!! You filtering apps and easy importing are not worth this upcharge.

I was charged twice for one month, they didn't have a cancel button => your trial registration will result in you being charged or canceling your credit card

I signed up with Paypal, and tried to cancel before I got paid, but they didn't have a cancel button, they still charged my Paypal. I was charged twice by them a day, be careful, they won't refund you, this is a lesson.

terrible pricing no such thing as whole sale prices with this app it requires you to leave a good review in order to let you continue to use for free

The items are too expensive. I would not be able to make much profit. Once I changed to shipped from UK (because I don't want long shipping time) there was almost no items left.

It says there is a free plan available, but whenever I tried to add an item to my import list, it kept trying to make select a plan to upgrade to. A free plan doesn't count as a free plan if all I can do is look at the products and cannot actually order them without upgrading. False advertising.
