Stocky has closed. You need somewhere for orders to go.
On February 2, 2026, Shopify removed Stocky from the App Store. On August 31, 2026, Stocky stopped being usable for inventory management, and Stocky's APIs stopped at the same moment with no grace period: every third-party tool wired into them broke that day. Your archive is on a different clock: Shopify says read-only access to export your data, such as purchase orders and stocktakes through Stocky's built-in reports, continues for at least 90 days after the shutdown, so until 29 November 2026 at the earliest, with no end date published. Shopify also says suppliers cannot be exported from Stocky. Your Shopify Admin inventory levels were never affected: those live in Shopify, not in Stocky. (Shopify, "Transitioning from Stocky", read 16 October 2026.)
For most stores, the immediate question isn't "which paid replacement do I buy?" It's "where does my own record of new orders live now?" That's what Stocky Swap solves. It's not a full inventory accounting system: it's a real-time order ledger that lives in a Google Sheet you control, deployed in minutes, free forever via Make.com.

Shopify states the read-only export window as "at least 90 days" after 31 August 2026: a floor with no published end date, which is a reason to move rather than to count. Export your Stocky data now, see the step-by-step export guide, and set up Stocky Swap in parallel.
