ShipStation Integration for Ecommerce Stores

Seamless Shipping, Smarter Fulfillment

We’re excited to introduce the new ShipStation integration, designed to make shipping and fulfillment effortless for your Ecommerce store. With the ability to connect to over 50 carriers, compare live shipping rates, and manage operations from one central dashboard, this integration ensures your fulfillment process is faster, smarter, and more cost-effective.


Key Features

1. Automated Fulfillment
Orders are automatically synced, and shipping statuses are updated across your store, saving time and reducing manual errors.

2. Live Carrier Rates
Display real-time, accurate shipping rates from 50+ carriers directly on your checkout page, so customers always know their best delivery options.

3. Discounted Shipping
Take advantage of pre-negotiated carrier discounts or connect your own accounts for maximum flexibility and savings.

4. Centralized Dashboard
Manage shipping labels, tracking numbers, and fulfillment rules from a single hub—streamlining your entire process.

5. Order Notifications
Keep customers in the loop with branded emails and tracking links sent automatically when their orders ship.


How to Set It Up

  1. Open your dashboard and go to the App Marketplace.

  2. Search for ShipStation Integration and click Install.

  3. In the Settings tab, enter your Live API Key and Secret from ShipStation (test tokens are not supported).

  4. Click Connect to authenticate.

Add Shipping Options:

  • Define a Shipping Name (this is what your customers will see at checkout).

  • Select carriers and services from ShipStation.

  • Set a Fallback Value (used when live rates are unavailable).

  • Save your configuration and publish to enable live shipping rates at checkout.


Important Notes

  • Make sure your carrier accounts, sender/receiver details, and shipping rules are configured correctly within your ShipStation account.

  • Live rate checkout will only work after shipping options are set up.

  • A valid Live API token is required—test tokens will not work.


Final Thoughts

With the ShipStation integration, you can automate order fulfillment, access real-time carrier rates, and keep customers updated with ease—all from one streamlined dashboard. This upgrade empowers your Ecommerce store to deliver a smoother shopping experience while saving you valuable time and costs.
