Is there a way to merge two orders in Shopify?

Only within one order: you can merge fulfillments from the same location.

Now you can split and merge items in a single order, adding more flexibility to your fulfillment process.

No Shopify page we read merges two separate orders — we checked Help Center order, editing, fulfillment and label pages, shopify.dev's order mutations and both Shopify changelogs on October 25, 2026. In the admin, individual orders can't move between customer accounts either — see merging customer profiles.

Edit the first order or re-create both as one draft?

Pick by whether the first order is still editable; either way, you then cancel every order the new one replaces.

Check before you start: a partially fulfilled order can't be canceled. Canceling a paid, unfulfilled order sends a full refund to the original payment method by default, but credit card transaction fees aren't returned to you.

Edit the first order (still unfulfilled)
Re-create both as one draft
  • Duplicate one order into a draft, then add the other's items
  • Discounts and shipping rates aren't duplicated; lines take each product's latest details
  • Invoice the customer for the draft order

Can one shipping label or an app cover both orders?

None of the Shopify Shipping label pages we read on October 25, 2026 describes one label for two orders. You buy a label from one order for that fulfillment, and bulk buying lets you select orders, optionally grouped by item name or quantity. (The opposite case: printing several labels for one order.)

Some App Store listings describe merging orders; ones we found on October 25, 2026 include Order Merging ‑ Combine Orders and Mergify: Combine, Merge Orders.
