About MerchantPlay
MerchantPlay provides connected inventory management software for modern sellers.
Founded in Singapore in 2013, MerchantPlay helps growing retailers, ecommerce sellers and wholesalers manage purchasing, receiving, products, multi-location inventory, transfers, stocktakes, sales, fulfilment, invoicing and returns from any browser.
The platform is built around inventory traceability. Quantity-based Stock Journey and serial-level Unit Journey views provide a clear, auditable record of how stock and individual items move through the business.
A built-in browser POS supports in-store selling, while the wider platform is designed to connect physical outlets with commerce and accounting systems. MerchantPlay works with existing retail hardware without requiring businesses to replace their equipment.
MerchantPlay is designed for businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets or basic channel inventory but do not need the cost and complexity of a traditional ERP.

Channel Bay
Channel Bay is an inventory management app built for growing eCommerce businesses that have outgrown spreadsheets and manual tracking. It gives merchants one clear view of their inventory across sales channels, stores, warehouses, and other locations, with real-time stock syncing.
Instead of updating stock separately across platforms, merchants can manage everything from one place. Channel Bay also simplifies purchasing with Purchase Orders, supplier details, product costs, and receiving workflows, while low-stock alerts and demand forecasting help prevent stockouts.
For physical inventory, stocktakes and barcode scanning make counting faster and help spot discrepancies early. Stock transfers also make it easy to move products between locations when needed.
With inventory tracking, purchasing, stocktakes, transfers, barcode scanning, alerts, and forecasting in one system, Channel Bay reduces manual work and gives growing businesses better visibility and control.
