About Big Cartel

Big Cartel is an ecommerce platform built for independent creators, artists, and small-batch producers who need a simple online store without the overhead of enterprise ecommerce systems. It supports product listings, inventory tracking, order management, discount codes, and basic analytics — enough for makers and small brands to sell online without getting buried in configuration.

For businesses running a Big Cartel store alongside other tools — email marketing platforms, accounting software, shipping providers, or social media channels — manual data transfer between systems eats into the time that could be spent making products or serving customers. Osher Digital’s system integration services connect Big Cartel to your other platforms so order data, customer details, and inventory levels stay synchronised automatically.

Common automations include syncing new orders to accounting software, triggering shipping label generation when a purchase is confirmed, updating inventory across multiple sales channels, and adding customers to email marketing lists based on what they bought. Our sales automation team builds these workflows to reduce repetitive tasks and help small businesses operate more efficiently as they scale.

If your Big Cartel store is growing and the manual work is growing with it, automation can help you keep up without hiring additional staff. Osher Digital’s business automation specialists work with small and mid-sized ecommerce businesses to build practical workflows that save hours each week.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Big Cartel

Step 1

Set Up Your Big Cartel Store

Create your Big Cartel account, add products with descriptions and images, configure shipping options, and set up your payment processing.

Step 2

Identify Repetitive Tasks

List the manual tasks you perform after each sale — updating spreadsheets, sending confirmation emails, adjusting inventory, creating shipping labels. These are your automation candidates.

Step 3

Obtain API Access

Generate your Big Cartel API credentials from your account settings. These credentials allow external systems to securely access your store data.

Step 4

Connect to Your Automation Platform

Configure your automation tool (such as n8n) to connect to the Big Cartel API using your credentials. Test the connection by pulling a list of recent orders.

Step 5

Build Order Processing Workflows

Create workflows that trigger when new orders arrive. Route order data to your accounting software, shipping provider, email platform, and inventory tracker automatically.

Step 6

Monitor and Refine

Review your workflows weekly to check for failed runs or edge cases. As your store grows and your processes evolve, update your automations to match your current needs.
