Scaling on TikTok Shop is exhilarating—until the operations drag you down. The right decisions on fulfillment, staffing for live events, and inventory sync determine whether you ship on time or scramble for days.
Below are three free, in‑browser calculators:
- FBT vs. Seller Shipping Cost (find the cheaper path for your catalog),
- Live‑Sale Surge Capacity Planner (know how many people you need), and
- Inventory Sync Risk Estimator (see oversell risk and what to change).
Nothing you enter leaves your browser. Tweak the defaults to match your workflow.

Notes & assumptions
- These are directional planning tools—adjust defaults to your reality.
- Calculators exclude carrier surcharges, TikTok incentives, and complex storage tiers for clarity.
- For mixed catalogs, run the FBT vs Seller tool per product group (fast movers vs slow movers, bulky vs light).

What to do next
- If the FBT vs Seller delta is small, test a hybrid: fast movers in FBT, long‑tail via Seller Shipping.
- If live capacity is your bottleneck, standardize a picking wave and use batch labels right after the 1‑hour hold.
- If inventory risk is high, either sync more frequently or raise safety stock on SKUs with uneven demand.
