Stockist portal

More than supply — a portal built for busy tackle counters

Every approved Earlybird stockist gets access to our wholesale portal: ordering, stock visibility, sell-through tools, and support in one mobile-friendly place. It is included with your account — no extra software fees.

Ordering

Mobile-first ordering

Place repeat orders from the counter in seconds — quantity grid, carton hints, optional notes, instant confirmation, and full order history whenever you need it.

Logistics

Know your delivery day

See your van run day on the dashboard, order screen, and saved addresses so staff know when to expect the next drop before they build a cart.

Stock

Live availability

Every SKU shows in stock, low stock, or out of stock. Out-of-stock lines stay visible so you can plan ahead instead of guessing what is on the truck.

Stock

Back-in-stock alerts

Tap to get an email when a line you care about is available again — subscribe from the order grid or the dedicated availability view.

Sell-through

Sell More

Staff tips, suggested product bundles, and best-seller cues drawn from real wholesale orders — practical prompts to lift in-store turnover.

Sell-through

Marketing Kit

Download shelf labels, product cards, and promo assets published by Earlybird — ready for your team without chasing email attachments.

Communication

Stockist updates

Pinned news and automatic stock-in / stock-out posts so your team hears about range changes and restocks in one place.

Local edge

Perth product smarts

Signed-in stockists see where to use each bait around Perth, target species, how-to notes, and seasonality on the public product range.

Account

Team & account control

Manage business details, multiple delivery addresses, contacts, staff invites, security, and display timezone — owners control who sees what.

Support

Service & support

Log delivery issues from the portal and reach dispatch during business hours — account details and help links stay in one support hub.

Overview

Dashboard at a glance

Recent orders, low-stock highlights, and the latest updates on one screen so the morning check-in takes seconds, not phone calls.

Discovery

Approved stockists can appear on our WA map and directory so anglers find your store — search by location, distance, and directions.
