LONDON, Monday, August 19, 2024- Leading shipping API provider ShipEngine announced the launch of “ShipEngine for Platforms” in the UK lastweek.
This new product empowers e-commerce platforms to integrate pre-built shipping functionalities directly into their existing offerings.
Previously, building a robust shipping system required significant resources for e-commerce platforms, often involving dedicated developer teams and ongoing maintenance.
ShipEngine for Platforms eliminates this complexity, allowing platforms to offer merchants a seamless shipping experience without custom software development.
Modern online shoppers prioritize efficient and cost-effective deliveries. By integrating ShipEngine, platforms can address this demand and differentiate themselves from competitors lacking built-in shipping solutions.
Merchants using these platforms will benefit from streamlined fulfillment and access to favorable shipping rates within their familiar platform environment.
ShipEngine for Platforms leverages “ShipEngine Elements,” a suite of embeddable web components for features like address validation, rate comparisons, shipping service selection, and label printing. These features require minimal design and engineering resources to integrate, further streamlining the process for platforms.
In addition to these embedded components, ShipEngine offers a comprehensive API and web carrier platform for broader carrier integration management.
ShipEngine is a multi-carrier shipping platform offering robust functionalities to various stakeholders in the e-commerce ecosystem, including online stores, logistics providers, system integrators, application developers, and new application development projects.
