Start in one working session

Set up your PrepPort workspace before your supplier ships.

Create reusable product, supplier, packaging, labeling, and QC files. Then submit inbound shipments, sourcing RFQs, drop shipping orders, quote responses, and invoice/deposit reviews without repeating the same instructions in every message.

Best first action

Create a free account and choose one task. A basic shipment does not require a supplier profile, custom packaging template or a separate quality inspection. For incoming goods, enter the product name and quantity; supplier details, your reference and SKU are optional. No card or deposit is needed.

Inbound to warehouse

Create an incoming shipment using product names and quantities. We generate your internal SKU if needed. Add carrier, tracking and carton details when available, and select extra work only when you need it.

Product sourcing RFQ

Submit product link, target quantity, target price, destination, sales channel, sample needs, procurement needs, and drop shipping plan.

Drop shipping orders

Submit platform, order number, destination, shipping service, SKU lines, inserts, packaging notes, and ship-by expectations.

Shopify order sync cockpit

Save store setup in the Shopify tab, then check authorization and connection status. A saved domain is not a live connection. Use manual orders or CSV while native sync is unavailable.

Open Shopify sync

Quotes and invoices

API and webhooks

Connect your own OMS, ERP, Shopify middleware, private app, or spreadsheet automation with API keys, Customer API v1, OpenAPI JSON, and signed webhooks.

Payment and release rule

PrepPort can prepare quotes, invoices, top-up requests, and payment review items. Use Quotes & invoices for quote responses and invoice/deposit status. Payment instructions, refunds, legal wording, and release of goods require human approval and confirmed funds.

Wallet and rewards

An optional Wallet & rewards request can organize advance funds for procurement, inspection, prep, freight, storage, and drop shipping. Your balance and payment status distinguish submitted requests from verified funds; it does not charge a card or credit balance until PrepPort verifies settlement.

Open wallet

Referral credits

Each account gets a referral code and signup URL. Referral rewards are reviewed after the referred overseas seller qualifies and pays the first eligible invoice, then approved rewards can be credited to wallet.
