Why teams connect Drift and Linnworks

Close the gap between front office and back office: Drift and Linnworks share customers and status in real time, in both directions.

Drift holds the customer relationship; Linnworks runs the operations and records behind the business. The two overlap wherever the same organizations and transactions matter to both, and when that overlap is bridged by re-keying or overnight batch, each side spends the day working from stale data.

Stacksync syncs Messages, Accounts, Users, Playbooks in Drift with Locations, Purchase Orders, Suppliers, Channel Listings in Linnworks field by field, in real time, and in both directions. You decide which system owns which fields; Stacksync keeps every copy consistent and resolves conflicts by rules you set.

Common use cases

  • Enrich Drift contact and account records with firmographic or product data from an internal database to sharpen playbook targeting.
  • Sync meetings booked in Drift to CRM activities so pipeline attribution stays accurate.
  • Sync product and listing data with a PIM so channel listings stay aligned with the catalog
  • Push customer and order data to a CRM or marketing platform for post-purchase campaigns

Where Linnworks is the finance system of record: money status on the account

Invoice and payment state from Linnworks shows on the account in Drift, so reps see balances before promising the next order.

One customer master

Where both systems keep customer or organization records, corrections in either propagate to the other, ending dual maintenance.

Where Linnworks manages people and org data: keep Drift aligned

Owners, territories, and org structure informed by Linnworks stay current in Drift.
