Is there a free Stocky alternative? (honest answer)

Stocky came free with Shopify POS Pro, so it’s natural to look for another free tool once it shuts down on August 31, 2026. Here’s the honest picture of what “free” gets you — and where a small flat fee replaces far more of what Stocky did.

What free Stocky alternatives actually cover

Free inventory apps like Stockful handle basic stock tracking. What they usually leave out is exactly the workflow Stocky was valued for:

Emailing purchase orders to suppliers.
Receiving stock against a PO, partial or full.
Low-stock forecasting from sales velocity.
Rebuilding suppliers from your Stocky history on import.

If all you need is a simple on-hand count, free works. If you ran purchase orders through Stocky, free tools tend to push that work back onto spreadsheets.

The middle ground: one low flat fee

Reorda covers Stocky’s core workflow — purchase orders, suppliers, receiving, stocktakes and low-stock forecasts — for a flat $19/month with a 14-day free trial. No per-seat pricing, no POS requirement. And it rebuilds your suppliers from your PO history automatically, which free apps don’t.

Try it free for 14 days

Frequently asked questions

Is there a completely free Stocky alternative?

There are free inventory apps like Stockful, but they're basic — typically no purchase order emailing, limited receiving and no low-stock forecasting. Free covers the simplest cases; most stores that leaned on Stocky need more than the free tier offers.

Why isn't Stocky itself free anymore?

Stocky was free with Shopify POS Pro, but Shopify is shutting it down entirely on August 31, 2026 regardless of your plan. There's no paid version to fall back to — the app is going away.

Is $19/month worth it over a free app?

If purchase orders, receiving, supplier management and low-stock forecasting save you even a couple of hours a month — or one avoided stockout — a flat $19 pays for itself quickly. Free apps that skip those features often cost more in manual work.
