Case Study: Spikeball saves $400K a year on shipping with ShipBob's hybrid model
Key results
The challenge
Spikeball relied on manual, knowledge-dependent warehouse processes and expensive third-party support, with no unified system to manage fulfillment across multiple regions.
The solution
Spikeball adopted a hybrid approach: ShipBob's WMS to run its owned US facility plus ShipBob's fulfillment network in Canada and Europe, connecting operations into one system.
“We're saving hundreds of thousands of dollars per year, just in postage. When we first got started, we estimated over $400,000 in savings.”

The results, in context
Per ShipBob's published case study, Spikeball estimated over $400,000 in annual shipping savings, a 40% reduction in total fulfillment costs, and 80% faster packing efficiency after moving to ShipBob's hybrid model. Figures are quoted from the public source and dated.
