What's included

Every order, end to end.

DTC fulfillment is more than picking boxes. Here's what actually happens to a unit of inventory once it lands at our dock.

Inbound receiving

Pallets from your manufacturer or freight forwarder are received within 24 hours of arrival. Every SKU is counted, photographed, scanned, and put away to its assigned location. You get a receiving report the same day.

Real-time inventory sync

Inventory levels push back to your storefront in real time. When a customer buys the last unit on Shopify, Amazon FBM and your B2B portal both update in the same minute. No overselling, no manual reconciliation.

Pick & pack with your packaging

Orders pick within 2 hours of import. Packed using your boxes, dunnage, inserts, and tissue per your packout spec. Custom kit configurations, conditional inserts, and gift-message options are all configurable in the WMS profile.

Rate-shopped shipping

Every label is generated against USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL at our negotiated rates and the cheapest viable option is selected. You can override on a per-SKU basis if a specific carrier matters to your brand.

Tracking + branded notifications

Tracking pushes back to your storefront the moment the label is generated. Optional: branded shipping notifications with your domain, your sender name, your post-purchase upsell.

Returns processing

Inbound returns are inspected, photographed, graded, and either restocked or quarantined based on your rules. Full return-reason data flows back to your dashboard.

Why Matrix

What makes us actually different.

Every 3PL claims same-day shipping and great service. Here's the substance behind it.

Same-day shipping cutoff at 2 PM Pacific

Orders received by 2 PM Pacific ship the same business day with tracking pushed back to your storefront within minutes of label generation. Late-arriving orders ship the next morning — not 24 hours later.

Built on ShipHero

We run the same WMS that powers DTC brands shipping millions of orders per year. Real-time inventory, batch picking, mobile scan-pack workflow, native integrations — not a homegrown legacy system that breaks every time you change something.

Ships from Los Angeles

Minutes from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. Two-day ground to the entire West Coast, three to four-day to most of the US. If your supplier ships from Asia, your inventory hits our dock days faster than an East Coast 3PL.

One human, not a ticket queue

You get a direct phone number and email for your dedicated account lead — not a generic support@ inbox. When something goes wrong (and something always eventually goes wrong), you talk to the person who can fix it.

No order minimums, no setup fees

Onboard while you're still shipping 50 orders a month. Grow with us. Or onboard at 10,000 a month — same software, same pricing structure. We do not charge to set you up, we do not charge to integrate, we do not charge a "platform fee."

Month-to-month, not contract

30-day notice to leave. If we are not earning your business every month, you should not be locked in. The only reason a 3PL needs a long-term contract is to compensate for service customers would otherwise walk away from.

Who it's for

Who DTC fulfillment is built for.

Shopify brands shipping 200-10,000 orders/month

The sweet spot. Native Shopify integration, same-day shipping speeds, no minimums to onboard, room to scale to 10x volume on the same operation.

Multi-channel brands selling DTC plus Amazon FBM plus marketplaces

One inventory pool, channel-specific routing, real-time sync to every platform. No overselling, no manual reconciliation, no "which channel got the last unit" problem.

Brands switching from a previous 3PL

Inventory transfer coordinated. 14-30 days of parallel running. We've onboarded many brands mid-quarter without breaking customer experience.

Brands HQ'd outside the US selling to US customers

LA port adjacency compresses inbound transit from Asia and Europe. Combined with our US presence, we serve as your operational US footprint.

Brands prioritizing the unboxing experience

Every order packed with your packaging, your inserts, your branded experience. Custom packout specs, conditional inserts, gift workflow all supported.

Brands without warehouse operations expertise

You don't need to know what FNSKU labeling means or how to negotiate carrier rates. We handle the warehouse. You handle the brand.

Pricing

Transparent, itemized, no minimums.

DTC fulfillment uses our standard pricing model: pick & pack starts as low as $0.50/order (volume-tiered), with $1.50 base + $0.35 per additional item at standard volumes. Storage per pallet or bin per day. Receiving per pallet or carton.

FAQ
What does DTC fulfillment actually include?
Receiving inbound inventory, putaway and storage, real-time inventory sync to your storefront, picking and packing every order with your packaging, generating a shipping label, handing the package to a carrier, and pushing tracking back to your customer. Returns are a separate service we also handle.
Do you use your own packaging or ours?
Yours. We do not put our name, logo, sticker, insert, or tape on outbound packages. Every order ships in your branded packaging exactly the way you would ship it yourself. Customers receiving the package will not know Matrix exists, and that is intentional.
How fast do orders ship?
Orders received by 2:00 PM Pacific ship the same business day. Orders after the cutoff ship the following business day. Saturday and Sunday cutoffs are configurable per client.
Which platforms do you integrate with?
Shopify, Shopify Plus, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, Wix, Squarespace, Walmart, eBay, Etsy, Faire, Amazon Seller Central (FBA and FBM), and TikTok Shop are all natively supported. If you sell somewhere we have not listed, ask — most platforms work via our WMS API or ShipStation.
Is there an order minimum?
No. We onboard brands shipping their first ten orders and brands shipping ten thousand a month. Same pricing structure, same software, same team.
How fast can we onboard?
Most brands are integrated and ready to ship inside 7 to 14 days. The bottleneck is usually your inbound inventory arriving and getting put away, not the integration itself.
