Why Your Tech Stack Should Talk to Each Other

Why Your Tech Stack Should Talk to Each Other

Let’s say you use Xero for accounting.
Shopify for ecommerce.
Square for POS.
Starshipit for shipping.
And spreadsheets for… well, everything in between.

That’s fine — until they stop talking to each other.
And suddenly, you’re doing the same job twice, chasing info across tabs, or worse — making decisions on bad data.

Your tech stack doesn’t just need to exist.
It needs to communicate.


What Happens When Your Systems Don’t Sync

You lose time. You lose accuracy. You lose margin.

Let’s break it down:

  • Stock levels don’t match across platforms
    → You oversell online and can’t fulfil
  • Invoices don’t match POs
    → You pay for stuff you didn’t receive
  • Customers get late dispatches
    → You get support tickets and refund requests
  • No single source of truth
    → Your team wastes hours chasing down the “real” data

Each of these on its own is annoying.
All of them together? It’s chaos.


The Case for Integration

When your tools talk to each other, everything changes:

  • Your ecommerce orders sync instantly into fulfilment
  • Labels print automatically when orders are picked
  • Invoices match POs without manual reconciliation
  • Stock updates in real time across channels
  • Your reports reflect reality — not guesswork

It’s not just about saving time.
It’s about having confidence in your decisions.


Supply’d: Built to Connect

We designed Supply’d to be the central hub of your operations — and we built it to play well with others.

Here’s what it integrates with out of the box:

  • Xero/MYOB/Quickbooks – Purchase orders, expenses, and payments
  • Shopify/WooCommerce – Products, pricing, inventory, orders
  • Square – POS sync, categories, sales reporting
  • Starshipit/Shippit – Shipping, tracking, label automation
  • Wedderburn – Scale integration for accurate pricing
    …and more on the way (plus API access if you want to build your own).

What Should You Do Now?

Ask yourself this:

How many hours are you (or your team) wasting each week because tools aren’t synced?
How much is it costing you in errors, delays, and frustration?

If you’re scaling a food, grocery, or manufacturing business — you need a platform that doesn’t just do it all, but connects it all.
