Issue: A merchant can’t find a way to integrate Starship in Shopify; only FedEx and UPS appear under native carrier integrations.
Shopify response: Shared 24/7 support/help links and noted Shopify Shipping only supports a limited set of built-in carriers (shown in an image). Suggested searching the App Store and pointed to a Starshipit Shipping & Tracking app (third‑party).
Clarification: Another user confirmed Starshipit is a different provider from Starship (Starshipit is separate, AU/NZ-focused). Shopify acknowledged this and said there’s currently no available app or third‑party solution to integrate Starship directly.
Recommendation: Consider hiring a Shopify Expert to build a custom app to connect Starship.
Context shared: One user highlighted StarShip’s superior UI/UX for multi‑package shipments (table-based workflow to QA before purchasing labels; “1 of n” labels that number each package out of the total).
Latest update: A guide was posted for integrating Starshipit with Shopify—again, for Starshipit, not Starship.
Status: No out‑of‑the‑box Starship integration exists; the practical path is custom development. The thread remains unresolved for Starship specifically, with lingering confusion between Starship and Starshipit.

For all other carriers, you can search our App Store for direct integrations.
I went ahead and did some extra research for you, and I found a specific Starshipit Shipping & Tracking app developed and managed by Starshipit.
Note:
Most Shopify apps are built by third-party developers, not by Shopify. If you need help with an app or sales channel that was built by a third-party developer, then contact the developer directly.
Let me know if that app integration is what you needed, or if you have other questions.
Thank you so much for clarifying that, @hockey2112 .
While there are currently no other alternatives to integrate Starship into your Shopify account, in our app store or as a third-party solution that I found, I would like to recommend potentially working with a Shopify Expert to build a custom app for your needs or future readers of this thread.
I trust that provides some guidance going forward to integrate the two as per your needs. If there are other questions I can help answer, please let me know.
StarShip has a superior UI/UX to Shopify’s shipping UI/UX, especially when shipping many multiple packages. The frustration with Shopify’s UI/UX is compounded when the packages have different dimensions and weights.
StarShip uses a table approach, which allows the user to QA their work before buying shipment for the entire order.
StarShip also creates shipping labels with a 1 of n approach, which is the expected experience by the package(s) recipient.
Hey Pbeaty. Thanks for adding that answer. Here’s the guide for anyone looking for how to integrate Starshipit with Shopify too! How to integrate with Shopify – Starshipit
