Pick, pack and track sales from connected marketplaces.

> Documentation index: https://tcgstats.com/docs/llms.txt

Orders bring sales from connected marketplaces into one overview. They help you find the correct card, protect stock and record shipping.

## Order workflow

```text
New order → Stock reserved → Cards picked → Packed → Shipped
```

The available actions depend on the marketplace and order status.

## What to check

Before shipping:

- marketplace order number;
- buyer and shipping address;
- exact card, variation, condition and language;
- ordered quantity;
- storage location;
- chosen shipping method.

## Keep orders and stock together

Process orders in TCG STATS even when you also use the marketplace's own order page. This keeps the inventory quantity, listing status and order history connected.
