ShipBob’s Spring ’26 Release

Selling through retail and marketplace channels means navigating a maze of compliance rules, and getting them wrong means chargebacks. ShipBob’s new Retailer Compliance Module applies the right rules at the exact step they matter, using context-aware logic that adapts to each retailer’s requirements. The result: fewer compliance violations, fewer chargebacks, and the confidence to scale across channels without adding manual checks. Launching in June for all merchants using ShipBob’s EDI or marketplace integrations.

ShipBob has developed a new Yard Management System that tracks trailer arrivals and departures more accurately. This new system will help to prevent trailer dwell, so that merchant orders and WROs are shipped and received on time.  Phased rollout by fulfillment center. 

Transaction History gives merchants complete visibility into their billing activity. Search and filter across all charges by order, fee, invoice, or credit with customizable columns directly in the dashboard. Merchants can use identifiers like PO#, Stored Order ID, and Order Type to find exactly what they’re looking for, so teams can validate invoices without manual workarounds. This feature will be generally available in May.

Billing Summary & Payment Status gives merchants a clearer picture of what they’re being charged and why. View invoices organized by billing cycle with costs broken out by category (Freight, B2B, and more) and see exactly where spend is going. Track payment status at the invoice level and download receipts directly, without needing to contact support or dig through email threads. If you are interested in participating in beta testing this May, please reach out to your ShipBob contact.

ShipBob merchants will now see errors in HAZMAT SDS sheets flagged directly in the Product Catalog, along with instructions for how to fix them. No waiting on back-and-forth with the ShipBob team; instead, merchants will have quick access with resolution steps within the Dashboard. Available now. Learn more. 

ShipBob is expanding lot management capabilities with Quarantine Lot Management via API. Merchants can now assign lots to quarantined inventory by fulfillment center or by lot directly through API integration, giving them more systematic control during recalls and inspections, as well as the visibility needed to meet compliance requirements without manual workarounds or gaps in audit trails. Beta testing is available in April. Merchants interested in participating should reach out to their ShipBob point of contact to participate.  Learn more.

SKU-Level Inventory Thresholds give merchants granular control over how inventory buffers are applied across their catalog. Rather than a single global threshold that treats every SKU the same, merchants can now set product-specific buffers that reflect actual demand patterns, keeping fast-movers protected from oversell incidents while freeing up sellable inventory on slower products that don’t need the same cushion. Coming this June.

This quarter, ShipBob is simplifying how merchants move inventory across our network with a new self-serve Inventory Transfer Flow. Merchants will be able to initiate, manage, and track inventory transfers end-to-end from one place, with real-time visibility at every stage. Whether rebalancing inventory across the network or responding to shifting demand, ShipBob’s new Inventory Transfer experience provides a single, unified flow that handles it all.  Accepting beta merchants early Q2. 

ShipBob new Klaviyo App 2.0 is live, built on OAuth and approved for the Klaviyo Marketplace. The new integration replaces manual API key setup with a secure, one-click connection, making it faster and safer to link ShipBob and Klaviyo accounts. Merchants currently using the existing integration will need to migrate before end of August to avoid disruptions to their flows. Learn more. 

The Developer Simulation Platform gives developers a self-serve environment to build, test, and validate the full WRO flow without relying on internal tooling. Using both API and UI, developers can now run end-to-end simulations independently, including testing new features, edge cases, and common workflows on their own timeline. Coming this quarter. 

ShipBob’s Public Order API now allows merchants to edit order line items and addresses. This is important for merchants who want to push order changes from their ERP (like NetSuite) to ShipBob without using our Dashboard.

ShipBob’s Public Order API now accepts FBA as an order type, allowing merchants to submit all order details programmatically rather than manually entering dozens of lines and quantities through the FBA order creation workflow.  Available now.  Learn more. 

Merchants can now define assembly instructions once, capturing every step, component, and detail, and reuse them across unlimited kitting orders through ShipBob’s API. Whether merchants are launching a new bundle, scaling a subscription box, or managing complex assembly at peak volume, ShipBob’s developer platform delivers consistent, scalable kitting workflows without the manual overhead. Available now.  Learn more.

WMS and Powered By merchants can quickly onboard large volumes of workers (with or without a ShipBob email) by providing each worker with a time-bound QR code generated by the Ops Manager. This allows instant, password-less login on any Minibob/ Toolbob device. The QR code encodes secure login credentials and device restrictions, removing the need for the user to manually enter or reset credentials (which is especially helpful during peak seasons). Ops Manager can start issuing QR codes directly from the User Management page in ToolBob. 

Get more orders out the door with less friction. Cart Creation Management brings smarter fulfillment configuration to the system level, modeling real equipment, cart types, and execution rules so the software matches how a merchant’s operation actually runs. We’re deploying this across ShipBob-operated fulfillment centers as well, optimizing efficiency across the network so every merchant benefits from faster, more consistent fulfillment. Available in June for WMS and Powered By merchants.

One place to see everything in motion. The new Unified Order Dashboard gives you a real-time view of fulfillment execution across all pick flows, with order priority, carrier cut-offs, risk, and exceptions all surfaced in a single screen. No more toggling between views to figure out what needs attention; merchants see what matters and when it matters, so deliveries stay on track and promises stay intact. Rolling out at ShipBob sites, with availability coming this summer for WMS and Powered By customers.
