How does dropshipping work?
Dropshipping allows you to sell products on your website without needing to stock the items. Instead, when a customer places an order, the item is purchased from a third party supplier who will ship the product directly to your customer.
Step 1
Your customer places an order on your online shop
Step 2
The order is sent directly to your dropshipping supplier
Step 3
Your dropshipping supplier prepares the order
Step 4
Your dropshipping supplier ships the order to your customer
