What Each One Does Best

China Parcels

Who is it for

Active online shoppers and small businesses receiving orders from China and worldwide.

Problem it solves

Shoppers and small businesses must monitor shipments from many carriers and marketplaces, often hopping between sites. This fragmentation leads to missed updates, delayed issue resolution, and difficulty tracking multiple orders in one place.

How it solves it

China Parcels centralizes tracking from 1000+ carriers and marketplaces into a single dashboard, automatically detecting couriers, storing parcel history, and providing fraud alerts. It also offers an API for integrating tracking data and delivery windows, plus a built-in knowledge base to resolve delivery issues.

What makes it unique

Unlike generic trackers, China Parcels unifies all shipments across marketplaces and carriers, auto-detects carriers by tracking number formats, and includes an unlimited parcel manager and fraud detection to prevent scams. Its knowledge base and API further streamline operations for both shoppers and small businesses.

Use cases

  • Consolidate carrier tracking in one dashboard
  • Auto-detect courier by tracking number
  • Monitor shipments from 1000+ carriers
  • Save and organize orders in unlimited parcel manager
  • Receive fraud alerts for suspicious activity
  • Integrate tracking data with other systems via API

RetroBase

Who is it for

Used and retro game stores looking to optimize inventory workflow from trade-in to shelf.

Problem it solves

Stores struggle with turning trade-ins into sale-ready inventory efficiently. Without centralized visibility, items get stuck in processing, missing steps, or delayed pricing and visibility to the team and customers. This leads to slower turnovers and lost opportunities at the buy counter.

How it solves it

RetroBase integrates with your POS to manage the end-to-end workflow from intake to final check. It tracks testing, cleaning, repair, pricing with Value Checker data, photo capture, and status visibility so items move smoothly from buy to shelf.

What makes it unique

It adds a structured, cross-functional workflow on top of existing POS, combining market pricing data with step-by-step processing visibility. This reduces bottlenecks by clarifying what is done, what is blocked, and what needs attention next, specifically for used and retro games.

Use cases

  • Log trade-in intake
  • Assign testing checklist
  • Annotate cleaning steps
  • Price with Value Checker
  • Capture item photos
  • Move to ready to sell
