3dcart Named Doba Certified Integration Partner, Extending Drop Shipping to More Online Retailers

Tamarac, FL (PRWEB) January 25, 2012

Adding a drop shipping partner to an online store is now even simpler with 3dcart. Now a Doba Certified Integration Partner, 3dcart is giving its customers access to more than 1,640,000 wholesale products through 163 drop shippers partnered with Doba.

The tight technical integration makes it simple to connect with Doba directly through the backend of a 3dcart store. All that?s required from 3dcart customers is a Doba account.

Through Doba, online retailers simply create an inventory list, process and pay for orders at wholesale prices and keep the profit from the sale. Products ordered through the integration automatically transfer from the 3dcart store to Doba, and the distributor on the other end collects the shipping information and sends the product out directly.

For 3dcart customers, the benefits of a drop-shipper like Doba include:

????Costs cut on storage associated with warehouses

????Time saved on packing & shipping

????Lower upfront investment on stocking their stores

????More brands to sell through their stores

?Online retail has never been an easier business for our customers with quality drop shipping partners,? said 3dcart CEO Gonzalo Gil. ?Doba?s drop shipping technology facilitates commerce between online retailers and large drop ship suppliers, reducing the risk and hassle for the storeowner and creating a more efficient business model for retailers.?

?We are excited that 3dcart has achieved Doba Certified Integration status making it significantly easier for 3dcart customers to quickly import any of Doba?s almost two million products in to their webstore and process their customers? orders,? said Jared Sidwell, Doba Vice President of Business Development. ? 3dcart merchants will also benefit from Doba?s ability to leverage our 50,000+ members when we negotiate pricing with our suppliers. Doba is able to guarantee 3dcart merchants that they will be able to source products at the lowest drop ship price from each supplier.?
