What is dropshipping?
Dropshipping is an order fulfillment method where a store doesn’t keep the products it sells in stock. Instead, the seller purchases inventory as needed from a third party—usually a wholesaler or manufacturer—to fulfill orders. In short, the order will be shipped directly to the end customer after you make the sale. All the products we provide at Hertwill are available via dropshipping.

What kind of products Hertwill offers?
We offer thousands of dropshipping products from more than 100 European brands, and new products are added to our catalog daily.
Our focus is on local brands whose products are of excellent quality, many of which have won awards. Most of the products we offer are also made right here in Europe. Our general principle is to offer high-quality products from real brands, which makes it easier for online stores to sell compared to AliExpress products.
The main categories we focus on now are shoes, bags, children’s items and cosmetics. Our special attention is on sustainable goods – for example, we work with a jewelry brand that is upcycling materials left over from aircraft manufacturing.

We offer a free plan that allows you to add up to 10 products to your store, no credit card required. Paid plans are available if you want to add more products and access premium features. The first month of any paid plan is just 1€, and you can cancel anytime.

Hertwill is a highly-rated dropshipping app, with a 4.9/5 rating for both Shopify and WooCommerce. You can read user reviews on the Shopify App Store, the WordPress Plugin Directory, and in the reviews section on the Hertwill homepage.
Can I sell Hertwill products if I’m already selling products from other suppliers?
Yes, of course.
What should I know about brand verifications?
Some brands we offer are available for everyone to import and sell right away (link), while others are premium brands that require approval before you can start selling their products. The approval process typically takes 0-3 days.
Brands usually want to review your store to ensure it aligns with their image and values. To increase your chances of success, it’s best to apply for brand approval when your store is live and ready.
To improve your chances of brand approval, follow these guidelines:
- Ensure Your Store is Publicly Accessible: Your store should be live and open to the public, without password restrictions.
- Opt for a Custom Domain: A custom domain boosts your store’s credibility.
- Present a Professional Image: Your store should clearly showcase what it offers and its value. Avoid placeholder content like ‘Lorem Ipsum’ and generic names like ‘Joosep’s Store.’
- Include ‘About Us’ and ‘Contact’ Pages: Brands want to know who’s behind the store and how to contact you.
- Be Selective with Product Choices: Having too many AliExpress products might turn some brands away.
- Don’t Use Brand Photos Before Approval: Wait until you’ve received approval to display a brand’s products.
- If you’re selling products through Hertwill, please don’t contact brands directly, as we have specific arrangements with each of them.

I tried bulk import but not all products made it to my store. What should I do?
If you are importing a large number of products at the same time from Hertwill, the sync process can take a while—sometimes even several hours. This is true for both WooCommerce and Shopify. For Shopify stores, especially on lower-tier plans, there are limits on how quickly products can be imported, which can slow down the process.
It seems that products didn't sync correctly to my store. what should i do?
Although this happens rarely, here’s what you can do if you encounter a sync issue:
- Delete the products with errors from your store.
- Remove these products from the My Products list in Hertwill.
- Add the products to your Import List again and try syncing them.
This should fix the issue. If the problem persists, don’t hesitate to contact us for further assistance.
How do I pay for my orders?
We have an automated billing system. This means that each time an order is processed for fulfillment, we will charge your bank card and issue an invoice for that order. Payments are processed via Stripe.
To pay for your orders, follow these steps:
- Navigate to Hertwill Billing Page.
- Enter your bank card details and billing information.
- If you have a VAT number, make sure to enter it as well.
Are the prices with VAT?
No, the prices listed in our catalog do not include VAT. If your business is in the EU and has a valid EU VAT number, VAT will not be added to your purchase. Otherwise, a 22% VAT will be applied, including to Estonian businesses with a valid VAT number.
Can I sell Hertwill products on Etsy, eBay, or other marketplaces?
