Kombi vs Mergify: two ways to combine Shopify orders

Both apps help you ship several orders from the same customer in one parcel. The difference is what happens to your orders along the way. Here's a sourced side-by-side.

The approach

Mergify

Creates a new merged order

The items from several orders are combined into one new order that you ship.

#1041+#1042→New merged order
Originals: archive, fulfill, tag or leave — your call
  • Per its site, merged orders are created in test mode by default.
  • Per its site, undo deletes the merged order.
  • You decide what happens to the original orders.

Kombi

Keeps the original orders, shares one shipment

No new order. The originals are held, ship in one parcel, and the tracking from your label is copied to each automatically.

#1041+#1042→Hold→1 label
#1041 fulfilled#1042 fulfilledsame tracking
  • Never refunds, cancels or edits orders; no permission to edit orders.
  • Holds the first order so it isn't packed before the next one arrives.
  • Tracking copied automatically from the label you buy.
  • One-click undo before shipping; immutable audit log.

Being fair

When Mergify may be the better choice

Kombi is new and deliberately focused. Mergify could suit you better if:

You ship through a 3PL

Mergify's site lists integrations with fulfillment tools such as ShipBob and ShipStation. Kombi v1 only supports orders shipped from your own locations.

You want one combined order document

If your packing or warehouse workflow expects a single order containing all items, a new merged order is exactly what Mergify creates.

You'd like a test-mode preview

Per its site, Mergify creates merged orders in test mode by default, so you can check them before they go live.

You want an established track record

Mergify shows 4.5★ from 65 reviews on the Shopify App Store. Kombi is in early access and has no public reviews yet.

Reviewing either option? Merchants describe their real experiences with merged-order apps — including leftover unfulfilled originals, inventory held as Committed, and copying tracking by hand — in Mergify's public App Store reviews. Experiences vary from store to store.

Kombi vs Mergify: common questions

Is Kombi an alternative to Mergify?

Both apps help you ship several orders from the same customer together, but they work differently. Mergify creates a new merged order; Kombi keeps the original orders and gives them one shared shipment and tracking number. Which fits better depends on your workflow — see "When Mergify may be the better choice" above, and our overview of both approaches.

What happens to the original orders?

With Kombi, the originals are the orders that ship: each one ends up fulfilled with the same tracking number. According to Mergify's site, it creates a new merged order and you decide what to do with the originals — archive, fulfill, tag or leave them.

Which one costs less?

It depends on how many merges you do. As an example at 75 merges a month: Mergify Basic is $9.99 + 40 × $0.30 = $21.99 (prices as listed on mergify.app on 14 Nov 2026), while Kombi Unlimited is $14.99 for any number of merges. Below 35 merges a month, Mergify Basic ($9.99) costs less.

I ship through ShipBob or another 3PL. Can I use Kombi?

Not yet. Kombi v1 supports orders shipped from your own locations. If your orders are fulfilled by a 3PL or fulfillment service today, Mergify (which lists integrations such as ShipBob on its site) may suit you better for now.

Can I switch from Mergify to Kombi?

Yes. Kombi tracks new orders from the moment you install it; orders you already merged with another app stay as they are. We suggest running only one merge app at a time so the same orders aren't handled twice.
