DSers

DSers is an ecommerce order management application that enables dropshipping store owners to place, track, and manage AliExpress orders in bulk from a single dashboard, replacing the need to process each customer order manually on the AliExpress website.

DSers is the official AliExpress dropshipping partner tool, having replaced Oberlo as the recommended solution for Shopify-based AliExpress dropshipping in 2022. It connects a store owner’s ecommerce platform to their AliExpress supplier accounts, synchronising product listings, inventory levels, and pricing.

When orders come in, the seller can process hundreds at a single click rather than entering each one individually. DSers also supports supplier optimisation – the ability to map a single product to multiple suppliers and automatically route orders to the best-priced or best-rated option at the time of purchase.

Beyond Shopify, DSers integrates with WooCommerce and Wix, making it usable across a range of store setups. For sellers evaluating their tooling options, see AliDropship vs DSers.

Key characteristics

• Bulk order processing: Multiple customer orders can be submitted to AliExpress simultaneously with a single action, reducing the time cost of manual order entry at scale.
• Supplier mapping: A single product listing can be linked to several AliExpress suppliers, with DSers routing each order to the mapped supplier that meets pre-set criteria such as price or stock availability.
• Inventory and price auto-update: DSers monitors linked AliExpress listings and pushes price and stock changes to the connected store, reducing the risk of selling out-of-stock or mispriced items.
• Variant mapping: Individual product variants – such as size or colour – can be mapped to specific supplier SKUs, ensuring the correct item is ordered regardless of which variant the customer selects.
• Tracking synchronisation: Once a supplier ships an order, DSers retrieves the tracking number from AliExpress and pushes it back to the store, updating the customer’s order status automatically.

Example

A Shopify store owner sells a range of phone accessories sourced from three different sellers on AliExpress. By midday they have accumulated forty-seven orders across twelve product variants. Using DSers, they open the orders dashboard, review the mapped suppliers, and submit all forty-seven orders to AliExpress in a single click. DSers routes each order to the correct supplier based on the variant mapping set up in advance. That evening, as suppliers confirm dispatch, DSers pulls the tracking numbers and pushes them to Shopify, triggering automated shipping confirmation emails to each customer.

What is supplier optimisation in DSers?

Supplier optimisation is a DSers feature that allows a seller to map one product to multiple AliExpress suppliers. DSers can then route each incoming order to the supplier offering the lowest price or the best availability at the time of purchase, without manual intervention from the seller.
