Integration Notes

Keep this in mind about ShipStation's integration with Overstock.com:

  • We are performing maintenance on our Overstock.com integration. As of Monday, November 4, 2019, no new connections will be supported. Sellers with active Overstock stores and existing connections will remain unaffected and will work 'as-is.'

    • Tips for Existing Stores: 

      • Product Records: We are aware of an issue where order item names are importing into ShipStation as the product variant. E.g., “Awesome T-Shirt red, large” imports into ShipStation as “red, large”. Use ShipStation's Product Automation defaults to override the imported order item name to display the actual product name instead.

      • Shipment Notifications: We understand that some orders may not be updated automatically with shipment info once you create a label in ShipStation. When this occurs, you will need to update your shipment tracking information manually on Overstock in your Supplier Oasis dashboard.

  • Overstock requires all orders to be processed within one business day after the purchase is made.

  • ShipStation does not notify Overstock customers with shipment information. Overstock will handle all communication with your customers.
