Is BaseLinker now Base?

Yes. BaseLinker renamed itself Base, at base.com, and its accounts and integrations carried over. Some of its help pages and its sign-in address still use the BaseLinker name.

Does OrderKrab work with Allegro or other marketplaces?

No. OrderKrab connects Shopify, WooCommerce and PrestaShop stores, and other stores through its API. Base imports orders and manages listings on Allegro, Amazon, eBay, Temu, Kaufland, Empik, Pigu and many more. If marketplaces bring in a large share of your orders, Base covers more of them.

How much does Base cost at 1,000 orders a month?

Base's own calculator shows 1,269 zł net on Business: 279 zł plus 0.99 zł for each order. OrderKrab's fee at the same volume is 415 zł on Labels or 590 zł on Pro. Base's fee also covers marketplaces, invoicing and the product catalogue, which OrderKrab does not offer.

Can customers choose a Paczkomat in Shopify checkout?

With OrderKrab, lockers sorted by distance appear in checkout on Shopify Grow with yearly billing. On Basic, the customer chooses a locker on the thank-you page after paying. We found no checkout locker picker on Base's pages.

Do both check what goes into each parcel?

Yes. Base's Packing Assistant marks an item packed when its EAN or SKU is scanned and flags a wrong one in red with a beep; its help also lets packers mark items by hand. It comes with every Base plan. OrderKrab's Pick & Pack has the packer scan every item, flags a wrong item before the box is sealed, and prints the label when the last item is confirmed. It comes with Pro and the FREE plan.

Which couriers does OrderKrab book?

23, each on your own contract: DHL Express, FedEx and UPS from any country, GLS from ten EU countries, InPost, Pocztex and ORLEN Paczka for stores in Poland, and national carriers such as Royal Mail, Matkahuolto, Omniva and Venipak from their home markets.

Which one handles returns?

Both. Base has a returns module with a customer return form; its help says the form cannot run on your own domain yet and needs Base's order number rather than your store's. OrderKrab's returns portal comes with every plan and sits on your own store. Customers find the order with its number and email, and you choose the return carrier for each destination country.

What you pay, and for what

Both charge per order, and on your own carrier contract the postage comes from your carrier either way. Base's fee pays for a whole order hub: marketplaces, listings, invoices, stock and shipping. OrderKrab's pays for fulfillment: labels, packing, picking, returns and stock. The fee rows compare price, not scope.

Base's figures are net, from its Polish price list and the calculator on that page, and count every order, from your store or a marketplace. OrderKrab's złoty prices are fixed conversions of its euro rate card, and its per-order rates are graduated, so each rate applies only to the orders inside its band. Neither column includes postage.

Base Freemium costs nothing for up to 100 orders a month, with 3 user profiles, hourly sync and the Packing Assistant. OrderKrab's FREE plan gives all of Pro for 50 orders a month, with no card, topped back up each month.

Prices verified 7 November 2026 on Base's Polish price list and on OrderKrab's Polish pricing page. Both companies set their own prices and can change them.

Why OrderKrab

Parcel lockers in your checkout. OrderKrab shows lockers sorted by distance in Shopify checkout on Grow with yearly billing, lets Basic customers pick one on the thank-you page, and adds locker search to WooCommerce checkout. We found no checkout locker picker on Base's pages; its WooCommerce plugin passes on a locker chosen in another plugin.
Returns on your own site. OrderKrab's returns portal sits on your Shopify or WooCommerce store, in 10 languages. Customers find the order with its number and email, and you approve with one click that creates the label. Base's help says its return form cannot run on your own domain yet and needs Base's order number, not your store's.
Switch or cancel any time. Base's plans change in one direction only: Freemium to Business, or Business to Enterprise. OrderKrab plans switch either way, and you can cancel any time from your account settings.
A lower fee per order. Base Business costs 279 zł a month plus 0.99 zł for every order, from your store or a marketplace. OrderKrab charges 0.44 zł per order on Labels and 0.61 zł on Pro, falling as volume grows. At 1,000 orders a month that is 415 zł or 590 zł, against 1,269 zł on Base's own calculator. Base's fee also covers marketplaces, invoicing and the product catalogue.
An AI assistant that can act. OrderKrab's MCP server lets Claude read your orders, returns and stock and, if you allow it, update addresses, create labels and approve returns, asking before every change. Base's MCP server answers questions only.
Problem orders fixed early. On Pro, Krab AI checks each order as it syncs from the store and proposes the fix the carrier needs, such as a bad address, before the order reaches the packing table.
