What this covers
Shipping is where a lot of store profit leaks out. Flat rates that don't reflect package weight, labels created by hand, tracking numbers pasted into emails, and inventory that doesn't match the warehouse all cost time and money.
We set up live carrier rates at checkout where they make sense, or calculated rate tables when they don't. Orders flow automatically to shipping software or your 3PL, labels are generated in batches, and tracking updates reach customers without anyone touching them.
For brands using third-party fulfillment, we connect the store and the warehouse system so inventory and order status stay in sync, and we set up alerts for orders that get stuck.
Is this right for you?
You'll get the most out of it if any of these sound familiar:
- You lose money on shipping for heavy or oversized orders.
- Staff copy orders into shipping software by hand.
- Customers ask 'where's my order?' because tracking emails don't go out.
- You're moving to a 3PL or adding a second warehouse.

How it works
Most shipping integrations take 1 to 4 weeks.
Review
We look at your order mix, package sizes, carriers, and current shipping costs.

We set rates that customers accept and that cover your costs.
Integrate
Store, shipping software, carriers, and warehouse connected and tested.
Monitor
We check order flow and tracking in the first weeks.
What affects the price
Every quote is fixed and written down before work starts. These are the things that move it:
- Number of carriers and warehouses
- 3PL integration complexity
- International shipping requirements
- Custom rate rules
Mistakes we plan around
The problems we see most often when this work is rushed:
- Flat rates without checking what heavy orders actually cost to ship.
- Live rates without dimensions on products, which produces wrong quotes.
- No alert when an order fails to reach the warehouse.
Shipping Integration questions
Should we offer free shipping?
Often it's worth it above a minimum order value that protects your margin. We help you work out the threshold from your actual order and shipping data.
Live carrier rates or flat rates?
Live rates are accurate but can look expensive. Flat or tiered rates are simpler for customers. Many stores use tiers based on order value with live rates for expedited options.
Can you connect our store to our 3PL?
Yes, with most major 3PLs and warehouse systems, including inventory and tracking sync.
Do you handle international shipping?
Yes, including duties and tax collection options, customs data on products, and carrier selection by region.
