QuickBooks Commerce Is Gone: Here’s What to Use Instead
If you relied on QuickBooks Commerce to manage inventory and orders, you’ve likely hit a wall — especially outside the United States. The product that began life as TradeGecko has been wound down, and for many businesses it’s no longer a viable option. This guide explains what happened, compares the best QuickBooks Commerce alternatives side by side, and walks through how to migrate without losing your data.
What happened to QuickBooks Commerce?
QuickBooks Commerce was the rebranded version of TradeGecko after Intuit acquired it in 2020. Over the following years, Intuit consolidated the product into QuickBooks Online and discontinued the standalone QuickBooks Commerce offering. Today, its commerce/inventory capabilities are only available as part of QuickBooks Online for customers in the United States. If you’re in Singapore, Australia or elsewhere in Asia-Pacific, you’ve effectively lost access.
Because this is a discontinuation rather than a like-for-like upgrade, there’s no automatic path forward — you have to choose a replacement and migrate to it. The upside is that the inventory-software category has matured a great deal since TradeGecko launched, and the alternatives available today are stronger, more affordable and better suited to Southeast Asian selling than what you’re leaving behind.
What you lost — and need to replace
- Multi-channel inventory sync across your online store and marketplaces.
- The B2B/wholesale portal for selling to other businesses.
- Marketplace integrations that were scaled back during the transition.
- Advanced inventory automation such as custom rules and workflows.
The key question is whether you want a tool that keeps your accounting and your inventory in one place, or a dedicated inventory platform that connects to whatever accounting software you use. For most sellers, keeping accounting and inventory as separate best-of-breed tools — connected by an integration — gives more room to grow than forcing both into one suite.

The best QuickBooks Commerce alternatives
1. WhiteBox — a dedicated inventory platform built for the region
WhiteBox replaces the commerce side of QuickBooks Commerce with purpose-built inventory, order and fulfilment software, and connects to your accounting rather than replacing it. It offers real-time sync across Shopify, Lazada, Shopee, Amazon and TikTok Shop, multi-warehouse control, barcode picking and an open API — from a Singapore-based team, starting at S$49 (about US$38)/month with a 14-day free trial. Since July 2026 it also runs its own Singapore fulfilment warehouse, so you can outsource storage, pick and pack and delivery to the same company that makes your software. If you valued TradeGecko’s commerce features, this is the most direct replacement.
2. Keep QuickBooks Online + a dedicated inventory tool
If you still want QuickBooks for your books, the cleanest setup is QuickBooks Online for accounting plus a dedicated inventory platform (such as WhiteBox, Cin7 or Zoho Inventory) connected to it. You keep your financials where they are and gain far stronger inventory and multi-channel features than QuickBooks Online’s built-in stock tracking. Note that outside the US, QuickBooks Online’s commerce features are limited, so the inventory tool does the heavy lifting.
3. Zoho Inventory
Affordable and quick to set up, with tight links to Zoho Books if you’re open to switching accounting too. It has a limited free plan and paid tiers from around US$39/user/month — a good fit for smaller catalogues. Remember the per-user model multiplies as your team grows.
4. Cin7
A more advanced, mid-market option for complex operations, with POS and deep order management. At the time of writing (July 2026), Cin7 Core starts at around US$349/month and rises to roughly US$999/month — a significant step up in cost, and best suited to larger businesses with manufacturing or multi-site distribution.
A worked migration example
Say you run a Singapore apparel label that used QuickBooks Commerce for stock and a separate accounting package for the books, selling on Shopify, Shopee and Lazada with about 900 orders a month. The practical route is: export your full catalogue and open orders from QuickBooks Commerce while you still have access; sign up for a 14-day WhiteBox trial and import the CSV; reconnect Shopify first and confirm stock counts, then add Shopee and Lazada one at a time; and connect your accounting so invoices and stock stay aligned. Because WhiteBox is live within an afternoon, most of the fortnight-long trial is spent verifying data and training the team rather than waiting on setup. Run both systems in parallel for a few days over a quiet period, then cut over once counts match. These details are illustrative, but the sequence holds for almost any move off QuickBooks Commerce.
How to move off QuickBooks Commerce
- Export your products, stock levels, customers and open orders while you still have access.
- Decide your accounting setup — keep QuickBooks Online, or switch alongside your new inventory tool.
- Import your catalogue into the new platform (CSV or via a connected channel).
- Reconnect channels one by one and verify stock counts.
- Connect your accounting so invoices and stock stay aligned.
Common migration mistakes to avoid
- Waiting until access is cut off. Export your data now, while you can still log in — a forced move with no export is far more painful.
- Importing a messy catalogue. Duplicate SKUs and inconsistent naming carry over and multiply; clean them before import.
- Connecting every channel at once. Reconnect one channel, confirm counts, then add the next — it’s far easier to spot a sync problem in isolation.
- Forgetting the accounting link. Decide early whether you keep QuickBooks Online or switch, so invoices and stock stay reconciled from day one.
- Skipping the parallel run. Overlap the old and new systems briefly before cutting over, so you catch discrepancies before they hit customers.
