Leaving Stocky

A Beauty Stocky alternative that plans what to reorder

The short answer

Shopify is retiring Stocky on August 31, 2026. For a beauty store, the useful question is not where to record stock, which Shopify's admin already covers, but how to know what to reorder, how much, and when. Replinish reads your Shopify sales history and forecasts demand per product, so the reorder list builds itself from data you already have.

What a beauty planner must do

Beauty buyers are loyal but quick to wander, and a favourite product out of stock is a customer lost to a rival. Replinish watches your Shopify velocity and tells you what to reorder before the shelf goes bare. The right tool takes that picture and turns it into a concrete next order: what to buy, in what quantity, and by when, with your supplier's lead time and any minimum order quantity applied.

Stocky vs Shopify vs Replinish

After Stocky closes on August 31, 2026, Shopify's admin covers the operational half of inventory (tracking, transfers, adjustments, basic purchase orders, low stock alerts). The planning half, forecasting, reorder points, lead times, and suggested quantities, is where a dedicated app fits.

Stocky retires August 31, 2026. If you plan inventory with Stocky today, you have a clear runway to move your products, suppliers, and purchase orders across before then. Replinish imports your Stocky data by CSV, matched on SKU, and reads only from Shopify, so your reorder planning keeps running without a gap.

Beauty Stocky alternative: questions

How does Replinish help a Beauty store decide what to reorder?

In beauty, shade and format variants turn over at very different speeds inside the same product line. Replinish reads your catalogue, stock levels and up to 365 days of Shopify sales history, then works out how fast each product sells. From that it sets a reorder point per product and suggests an order quantity, with the four inputs behind every number shown so you can check it.

My Beauty suppliers have long or seasonal lead times. Can Replinish handle that?

Yes. Replinish stores a lead time per supplier and uses it to time each reorder so stock arrives before you run out. The sales rate behind it is weighted toward recent weeks, so it follows your demand as it moves, and because shade and format variants turn over at very different speeds inside the same product line, you can adjust any lead time or safety cushion and watch the suggestion change.

Is Replinish safe to connect to my Beauty Shopify store?

Yes. Replinish is read-only: it reads your products, stock and orders through the Shopify Admin API and never writes them back. Your catalogue, inventory levels and customers in Shopify are never changed by Replinish.

What does Replinish cost for a Beauty store?

Replinish is Flow at $29 a month or Swell at $79 a month, both with a 14-day free trial and no annual contract. Billing runs through Shopify and appears on your existing invoice.
