Bulk Fulfill your Orders

Only work for Campaign by Product Base


What's difference?

This function allows you to view, edit, and fulfill your orders more easily.


Key feature: Sending to fulfill multiple orders at once.


Other changes include:

  • Order item is listed as individual row
  • Edit artwork details right on tables
  • Can combine orders by shipping address to send at once
  • View and edit order statuses
  • Only show orders from the current store (not multiple stores like old version)


Let us take a look at the following case:

Assuming that a customer places an order containing a mug. After purchasing, he sees another mug on your website and makes another purchase. Both mugs are fulfilled by CustomCat. Normally, you will need to send 2 different orders created just for one customer to Customcat. It will charge you twice the production and shipping cost. Also, it will be a headache for you to keep track of this customer and his orders.


With our years of experience with hundreds of sellers, we proudly introduce this feature that will help you solve this issue.


Now, when using this Bulk Fulfill feature, our app will automatically find, among the orders you selected, and combine all orders with the same Fulfillment Shipping Method, First Name, Last Name, Address, Zip code, and Phone Number, then send them to fulfillment as one order. Otherwise, you will be charged twice for the shipping fee.


🤯 This will greatly help you save shipping fees for fulfillment services with orders come from the same customer.



It can be overwhelming when you first see this menu. Please continue reading to find out the meaning of each status and the function of each menu.
