Cin7 review and pricing

Inventory-led platform combining retail POS with wholesale and ecommerce.

By Cin7 Limited · Founded 2012 · Auckland, New Zealand · private

Cin7 is the Auckland, New Zealand-built inventory-led platform founded 2012, combining retail POS with wholesale B2B and ecommerce inventory management. The product is inventory-first rather than checkout-first: brands selling through multiple channels (DTC retail, wholesale, marketplaces, ecommerce) use Cin7 for one inventory truth across channels. Best fit for inventory-heavy brands and wholesalers-plus-retailers needing unified channel management. Trade-offs: retail POS is one module of a broader inventory platform, so single-store retailers wanting a checkout-first product find Cin7 over-engineered.

Worst for

Single-store retailers wanting checkout-first simplicity (Shopify POS, Square for Retail simpler), Shopify-only retailers (Shopify built-in inventory sufficient), or pure brick-and-mortar without wholesale.
