FAQs
Is Stocky being discontinued?
Yes. Shopify has announced that Stocky will be discontinued and sunset on August 31, 2026. After that date, merchants will need to use Shopify’s built-in inventory tools or another inventory solution.
Why is Shopify discontinuing Stocky?
Shopify is consolidating inventory functionality into Shopify Admin. The goal is to simplify the inventory experience by moving core features into Shopify’s native tools. Some of Stocky's more advanced features will not be available in Shopify Admin.
What replaces Stocky?
Shopify Admin now includes basic inventory tracking and purchase order functionality. Brands that require forecasting, multichannel visibility, or financial integration should consider third-party inventory systems built for Shopify brands, like Finaloop's InventoryIQ.
Will I lose my Stocky data?
Shopify recommends exporting your data before the shutdown. After the sunset date, access to historical data may be limited.
How do I migrate from Stocky?
To migrate from Stocky, export your purchase orders and historical data, evaluate Shopify’s native tools, and choose an alternative inventory system if needed. Many brands transition before the sunset to avoid disruption.
What happens if I do nothing before Stocky shuts down?
After August 31, 2026, Stocky will no longer be available. Merchants should plan their transition in advance to avoid operational disruptions.
What are the main differences between Stocky and Finaloop for inventory management?
Both tools help Shopify brands manage inventory, but are built with different priorities.
