Welcome to Shippit’s quarterly product update 👋

We’re excited to announce some powerful additions to our platform, from unparalleled visibility into your shipping and delivery operation with Shippit Insights, to new carriers that give you 95 per cent delivery coverage in New Zealand!

That’s not all, we’ve also added significant enhancements to our platform integrations to power unlimited efficiency, and new carriers to enable you to deliver to more customers, with more delivery options.

Unparalleled visibility into your shipping and delivery operation

After a decade working with ANZ’s leading retailers, we’ve learnt making sense of shipping data can be difficult. That’s why we’ve built one of the most robust and visually intuitive shipping data and analytics tools in the market… Shippit Insights!

Shippit Insights arms Operations, eCommerce and Finance teams with data-rich dashboards and self-serve analytics, so you can:

✓ Slash delivery costs and optimise fulfilment efficiency

✓ Boost sales to drive growth

✓ Turn shipping and delivery from an operational function to a business enabler

✓ Ship and deliver within New Zealand, or from Australia to New Zealand

✓ Enjoy 95 per cent fast and reliable coverage across both islands, including overnight within islands, and 2-day inter-island

✓ Ship up to 50 kilograms with support for oversized freight

✓Automatically validate delivery addresses

Enhancements

Cart-powered convenience with scheduled deliveries in your shopping cart

What’s better than fast delivery? Being able to choose the date and time you want your orders delivered! Shippit can now surface Uber’s scheduled delivery service directly in Shopify’s checkout, so your customers can choose any available three-hour delivery window to receive their packages.

See how you can enable scheduled deliveries

Eliminate repetitive bookings and sync multiple-package orders from PeopleVox

Most platforms treat each package from PeopleVox WMS as a single order. But what happens when you have multi-package orders? Shippit now lets you sync multi-package orders from PeopleVox under one order, to eliminate repetitive bookings, reduce shipping costs, and unify tracking under a single URL.

Manage your Shopify B2B deliveries in Shippit

Shopify Plus merchants can now sync business-to-business deliveries in Shippit, with added support to sync orders where the recipient details require a ‘Company/ attention’ field.

Streamlined order syncing and invoicing with Cin7 Omni

Sync orders marked ‘Release to pick’ or ‘‘Release to pack’

  • We’ve added a new ‘Release to pack’ status to our Cin7 Omni integration to give you precise control over pick and pack operations. You can now sync orders to Shippit once they are marked as either ‘Release to pick’ or ‘Release to pack’ in Cin7.

Automatically populate invoice date

  • For businesses handling a high volume of business-to-business deliveries where the payment is not processed in advance, we’ve added support to automatically populate your Cin7 invoice date based on an order’s dispatch date in Shippit.

Local currency conversion

  • To streamline invoices and custom declarations Shippit will automatically convert prices to the local currency for international orders or sales made in a different currency.

Save time finding orders with filters for store and dispatch location

No more scrolling! If you’re using the Shippit UI, you can now filter orders by store or dispatch location in the ‘Ready to ship’ and ‘Track’ tabs.

Head to your ‘Ready to ship’ and ‘Track’ tab to see our filters in action

New on demand, batched, and express delivery options

On demand and batched deliveries with Menulog

Menulog connects millions of Aussie consumers with more than 35,000 local food, grocery and retail businesses. Our new integration allows you to bring your own Menulog account and integrates with their on-demand, same-day and scheduled delivery services.

Express deliveries with SEKO Domestic

SEKO eCommerce’s domestic offering provides fast and reliable parcel delivery to retailers in Australia. You can now bring your own SEKO account to Shippit with ready-to-go support for their domestic express service.

Ship internationally from Southeast Asia, with duties and taxes covered

Shippit can now surface duties and taxes live in your Shopify checkout, so your customers can see all their international shipping costs upfront and you can ensure you’re not out-of-pocket for any additional shipping fees. Delivery Duty Paid (DDP) is available in Southeast Asia for orders shipped via our partnered rates with Aramex, or Smart Routing International, our suite of next-generation, multi-leg delivery services for international shipping.
