Spocket is a dropshipping application that helps drop shippers worldwide find and drop ship products based in the U.S. and E.U. Their easy-to-use app amplifies your productivity in searching and adding products to your store. Spocket supports integrations with one of the largest varieties of eCommerce platforms we've reviewed and is trusted by thousands of merchants.

Flexible, Full-Featured Pricing Plans

You can get started with Spocket for free just to browse the directory, or start selling immediately with a 14-day trial that doesn't require a credit card and that you can cancel anytime. The Starter plan is $24.99 monthly with 25 unique products. Upgrading to Pro will cost $49.99 monthly or $288 annually with 250 unique and 25 premium products. You also get branded invoicing and supplier communication. With the Empire plan, you pay $57 per month or $684 annually for 10,000 unique products and 10,000 premium products. Finally, with the Unicorn plan, you pay $79 per month or $948 annually for 10,000 unique and 10,000 premium products, plus product requests, supplier sourcing, and bulk checkout.

What It's Like to Use the Directory

The Spocket directory has a large number of categories and products that are easily filterable and searchable across multiple criteria. For example, we were quickly able to filter using multiple criteria to find products within a specific range of inventory in stock and that would ship from the U.S. with fast, low-cost shipping.

Another neat feature is that you can search for products using an example image. In other words, if you know what it looks like but not who sells it or what it's called, you can upload the product image and Spocket will find it for you on AliExpress complete with details.

With Spocket's Chrome browser extension, AliScraper, you can scrape product images, prices, and data directly from AliExpress. You don't even have to sit and wait for large numbers of products to import into your store through the extension. Once it begins, you can keep browsing and the extension will continue importing the prior set of products.

While digging through the Spocket directory, we were able to find many high-quality, unique, custom items, some of which were artisan or hand-made. This sets Spocket apart from several other dropshipping companies which seemed to be getting their inventory from cut-rate, low-quality mass-production factories. This was refreshing to see.

Education and Tutorials

There are courses on the site that help you understand how dropshipping works and get blueprints for immediate success. Our only problem with the materials is that they are not free of charge, so that stops prospective clients from reviewing them for quality and content before signing up.

Very Positive Reviews and Ratings

Spocket has an "A" accredited rating. Even though there are many complaints, this is likely due to the apparent popularity of the platform. Positive reviews elsewhere were almost 90%. Spocket follows up to resolve issues on both the Better Business Bureau site and other places people file complaints, so that is the likeliest explanation for the "A" accreditation at the Better Business Bureau.

Positive reviewers love the selection, ease of use, customer support, and integrations.

Negative reviewers had issues with account and profile settings, trial cancellation, and issues that could have been resolved with more research into the terms and conditions, the educational materials, and how dropshipping works on platforms like Spocket. That's not the drop shipper's fault, because they've definitely gone to the effort of explaining it clearly on their website.

Best and Most Usable Service Among Wholesale Drop Shippers

We were, by far, more impressed with Spocket's directory experience than with any other service we've looked at. It was extremely helpful and simple in getting us to the exact niche we were looking for in our test search. It was exciting to see the quality, quantity, and diversity of products that seemed to be the most sellable. The numerous eCommerce platform integrations and tools, educational materials, and the high number of positive reviews helped us rank this as our most recommended drop shipping provider.
