Why teams connect Intercom and Linnworks

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

Intercom 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 Contacts, Companies, Conversations, Tickets in Intercom with Processed Orders, Stock Items, Stock Levels, Locations 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

  • Sync contacts and companies bi-directionally with the CRM so support sees deal context and sales sees conversation history
  • Push product usage events from an application database into Intercom to trigger onboarding and retention messages
  • Mirror processed orders, refunds, and returns into a warehouse for margin reporting across channels
  • Sync product and listing data with a PIM so channel listings stay aligned with the catalog
