Shipcloud supports a shipping journey that starts in the checkout of your shop system.
You can connect your shop system with our Check Out API suite to support carrier selection in the checkout.
Shipping journeys
The Checkout API can be used in 1 way:
Shipping journey | API |
Checkout to Ship | Call the Routing rules API to get the available carriers for the shipment. Call the Pickup dropoff locations API to get the available pickup locations for the selected carrier service (conditional). |
Checkout process
The checkout process in your shop system is described here.
Checkout API
The Checkout API includes the following APIs:
API | Description |
Routing Rules | Get the available carriers for the shipment. |
Pickup dropoff locations (conditional) | Get the available pickup locations for the selected carrier service. |
Shipment Quote | Get a shipment quote based on the rates you pay to Shipcloud for a given route. This can be used to dynamically calculate shipping charges based on basket value and your actual costs for shipping. |
