Hi, I use fulfillment and their contract carrier. How do I get the option to ship to the parcel shop or boxes via their API in checkout? I tried to find some app that would be able to get at least some carriers, but they mostly work with label printing.

Thank you for advice.

Hello @AdamB3,
To enable shipping to parcel shops or boxes via their API in Shopify checkout, you can use the Shopify Fulfillment Orders API. This API allows you to manage the fulfillment process, including shipping options. 

  1. Integrate Fulfillment Orders API: Use the Fulfillment Orders API to create and manage fulfillment orders.

  2. Set Shipping Options: Define shipping options in your app to include parcel shops or boxes.

  3. Update Checkout: Ensure your checkout process includes these new shipping options.

For more detailed guidance, refer to the Shopify Developer Documentation on the Fulfillment Orders API.


Best Regards,
Jack Henry

Hi, Thank you.

I use Baselinker for transfer data about orders between Shopify and fulfillment. I would like to avoid some custom connection. It's very complicated to manage and maintain updates. I prefer some app but with my API URL for parcel shops and boxes.

Hello @AdamB3 

We can help you with fetching rates from your fulfillment company API to display at checkout with our app JsRates (https://apps.shopify.com/jsrates-shipping-rates).  This is assuming your fulfillment company API provides that service and it has a documentation we can refer to.

 

For this requirement, you store needs to have third-party carrier calculated shipping (CCS) feature activated to display rates at checkout. CCS is available on higher Shopify plans (not available on Shopify Basic plan).  Our app has a free demo plan; you will upgrade to paid plan after the setup is complete and when you are happy with the results. We will help you with the setup.

 

If you are keen, install the app (on free demo plan) and contact support via "Contact support" in the app or on support@jsrates.com
