# Bol stock synchronization

> Selling on bol alongside your webshop or other channels? Here is how real-time stock sync keeps your numbers aligned and prevents overselling and cancellations.

If you sell on bol and on your own webshop or another platform, you share the same physical stock across multiple channels. The risk is in the gap: when an item sells on bol while Shopify still shows it as available, you sell something you no longer have. The result is a cancellation and a disappointed customer. Stock synchronization fixes this by keeping your numbers the same everywhere.

## What stock synchronization does

Synchronization means a sale on one channel instantly adjusts the stock on every other channel. Sell a product on bol, and the count also drops on your webshop and other marketplaces. You work from a single stock count instead of separate numbers per platform that you try to keep up to date by hand.

ShopLinkr processes the orders from all your channels centrally and keeps stock [in real-time sync](/en/features/inventory). Alongside bol you can connect Shopify, WooCommerce and Kaufland, so everything runs off the same numbers.

## Why this matters

- **No overselling**: you avoid selling something that is already gone, and with it the cancellations and negative reviews on bol.

- **Less manual work**: updating counts per channel by hand takes time and invites mistakes. Automatic sync takes that off your plate.

- **Room for more channels**: once your stock keeps itself up to date, you can safely sell on extra platforms without losing track.

## Beyond the numbers

Keeping stock aligned is the start. For products you do not manage on pure stock, you can work with [fictional or unlimited stock](/en/features/inventory) and stock forecasting based on your sales. And as soon as an order comes in, you pick it with [pick lists](/en/features/pick-lists) along the shortest route through your warehouse and print a shipping label in one click, after which the track & trace is sent back to bol automatically.
