What Are the Best ShipBob Alternatives?
The best ShipBob alternatives are the 3PLs that fit how you sell. Start with three checks: whether prices are published, what setup costs, and where the warehouses are. Amazon and Walmart sellers should add a fourth: whether the same warehouse preps FBA and WFS shipments and ships marketplace orders. The table and the section below cover all four.
ShipBob facts are quoted from ShipBob’s own pricing and About pages, read on October 16, 2026. Check their pages for anything that has changed since.
Built for Amazon and Walmart Sellers
If most of your sales are on Amazon and Walmart, the warehouse has to handle both marketplaces' rules, from the same inventory.
FBA and WFS prep from the same stock
We label, bag and ship your inbound shipments to Amazon and Walmart fulfillment centers from the inventory we already hold for you.
Amazon and Walmart orders shipped from our warehouse
Your seller-fulfilled orders route from your Ecom Circles dashboard to our warehouse, and tracking syncs back to the marketplace.
Check-ins against your PO
Send the PO before the truck ships. We check the delivery against it and mark each item sellable or damaged, so you can file supplier claims while the window is still open.
Stock and charges where you sell
Inventory, check-ins, orders and every charge show up in the same Ecom Circles dashboard you use to list and reprice.
Prep for Amazon and Walmart is priced per unit on our FBA prep and WFS prep pages.
How Much Does ShipBob Cost?
ShipBob prices by quote. Its pricing page says "All quotes are customized for each customer" and lists implementation, receiving, storage and picking, packing and shipping as its standard fees. Ecom Circles publishes its 3PL rates: $3.00 per parcel order, $0.60 for each additional item and $9.95 per delivery received, for 3PL clients.
For ShipBob’s current fee list, see the ShipBob pricing page. Ours is below, with the client type each rate applies to.
Every service is deducted from your balance as it happens and itemized in your account. Storage, surcharges and every other 3PL line are on the 3PL pricing page, and the whole 3PL service is on our 3PL fulfillment page.
Is ShipBob Owned by Amazon?
No. ShipBob's own About page says Dhruv Saxena and Divey Gulati founded it in 2014, that it grew from an apartment to a Chicago headquarters, and that it is funded by investors in Chicago, Silicon Valley and beyond. Amazon's own fulfillment program is FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon), which stores and ships products sold on Amazon.
