Modalyst is a dropshipping supplier marketplace that Wix acquired in 2021. Store owners import products from vetted US and European suppliers, name brands, private label suppliers and AliExpress sellers, set markup rules, and have orders routed to suppliers who ship directly to customers. It syncs product details, inventory and tracking numbers with connected stores.
Modalyst integrates with Wix, Shopify and BigCommerce, and supports CSV files for other platforms. Its homepage mentions eBay stores, but its integration menu does not include an eBay app or setup guide. Plans run from a free Hobby plan to a $90 per month Pro plan, and every plan adds a 5% transaction fee.

FAQ
Wix owns Modalyst. Wix announced the acquisition in June 2021 to give Wix eCommerce merchants a native supplier marketplace and an integrated dropshipping solution. Modalyst had been one of the most successful apps in the Wix App Market and was already a portfolio company of a Wix investment fund. Modalyst's leaders joined Wix as part of the deal.
Modalyst connects online stores with dropshipping suppliers. Store owners pick products from US suppliers, AliExpress sellers, name brands and private label suppliers, import them in one click, and set markup rules. When a customer orders, the order goes to the supplier, who ships directly and sends tracking back. It offers Wix and Shopify apps and a BigCommerce integration.
Modalyst has three plans. Hobby is $0 a month and allows 25 products. Start-up is $35 a month for 250 products. Pro is $90 a month for unlimited products from all marketplaces, including name brands. Every plan also charges a 5% transaction fee on the retail value of orders, and each plan has monthly and yearly options.
Modalyst has a free Hobby plan rather than a timed trial. The pricing page invites retailers to start dropshipping for free, and the Hobby plan lets you add up to 25 products. Paying yearly for the Start-up or Pro plan saves up to 25%, bringing them to $30 and $67 per month.
Log in, click Manage Your Plan and choose the Hobby plan. Modalyst immediately cancels your paid subscription and downgrades you, and you cannot reactivate the old plan without paying again. Uninstalling the Modalyst app from your store does not cancel the subscription on its own, so you must also downgrade inside Modalyst. Questions can go to live chat.
Modalyst's terms say an email or phone request is not a cancellation; you must downgrade to the Hobby plan yourself. When you cancel or downgrade to a free Hobby account, all your items are removed from your store automatically and some related data is lost. Within 90 days, all content is permanently deleted and cannot be recovered.
Not directly. The Modalyst homepage says it integrates with stores from Shopify to Wix to eBay, but its integration menu lists only Wix, Shopify and BigCommerce, with no eBay app or setup guide. Sellers who dropship on eBay need a tool with a direct eBay connection for listings, stock and orders.
The Modalyst website links to a help center at support.modalyst.co, a contact page and the email address team@modalyst.co. The help center has sections on getting started, billing, Wix, AliExpress, orders, shipping, pricing and troubleshooting, and it points users to live chat for questions such as canceling a subscription.
Dropshipping supplier apps often compared with Modalyst include Spocket, Syncee, AutoDS and CJdropshipping.
