ShipStation’s product platform integrates all the services you need to fulfill customer orders. Take a look at how ShipStation walks you through order management, shipping, branding and inventory management.
Order Management
Order management makes it easy to track and organize your e-commerce orders. Automated features like order combination, order splits, order filtering, user alerts and order tags make the process from the initial order to shipping simple. It’s also easy to edit orders manually, even after an order import is complete.
The ShipStation order management reporting system lets you view, filter and export data individually or in groups. Get order, product and shipment reports to your exact specifications with just a few clicks to expedite your outbound shipping.
Shipping
ShipStation automates shipping tasks to improve your turnaround time. Generate and print as many shipping labels as you need in-house or on-the-go from the ShipStation mobile app. You can also create all types of important shipping documents like manifests, customs declarations and pick lists.
And ShipStation keeps you just as organized on the front end as it does behind the scenes. Wow your customers with transparent shipping experiences, and send your branded tracking page and notifications to keep them updated at every turn.
Other features like the ShipStation Rate Browse and the ability to scan to verify and print an order can set your shipping operation apart from the rest.
Branding
Branding your shipping is a great way to keep the attention of your customers. ShipStation lets you brand your:
- Shipping labels
- Tracking pages with links to social media
- Packing slips with personalized messages
- Emails
The branded tracking page makes package tracking simple for your customer. ShipStation can also facilitate online returns, including a self-service return portal.
- Small businesses
Inventory Management
A major appeal of ShipStation is the multifaceted business management tools it offers. You aren’t limited to just shipping — ShipStation also has powerful inventory and stock management tools.
Keep your inventory expenses on the money with automatic inventory or stock threshold alerts along with warnings when orders come through for items that have insufficient or unknown availability. Allocate and deallocate stocks to ensure you always have enough stock for both waiting and incoming orders.
Sync your existing inventory solutions or use the ShipStation internal inventory solution to always have up-to-the-minute stock levels easily available. And speed up both the shipping and inventory management process with customized packing slips and the ability to view inventory counts and create labels from anywhere with Mobile Inventory.
Integrations & Partners
ShipStation integrates with so many carriers, sales channels, marketplaces and other software and platforms that we can’t list them all here. You can view and search the full roster here, which includes major carriers like FedEx and USPS, marketplaces such as Etsy and Amazon and sales channels like Shopify and Squarespace.
This level of integration means maximum convenience for you and your customers. You can sell in multiple places, ship with whichever carrier makes the most sense and utilize the selling channel best for you and your audience.
ShipStation gets points for its comprehensive knowledge and self-service customer support portal. You can find information and tutorials on nearly any topics, and there’s also a live chat widget on every ShipStation page to better direct your support search. It’s also a simple process to start a support ticket via email.
But ShipStation falters on live, human support and offers no phone support. This is potentially problematic for those who need instant answers or don’t do well with digital support resources.
ShipStation’s mobile app really shines. The ShipStation app supports the whole range of ShipStation features.
You can handle and automate tasks like managing and shipping orders, respond to customer correspondence, email return labels, access your reports and analytics and set up push notifications to stay on top of it all.
You can even scan shipping barcodes right from your phone and get scannable end-of-day manifests to stay on point.
ShipStation makes the privacy and security of its platform top priority and applies stringent standards to protect user information and data. ShipStation will never share customer information unless a transaction requires it.
You maintain control over the use of identifying information, what types of marketing communications you want to get from ShipStation and the use of cookies or other tracking tech. Customer support assists clients in easily accessing, updating, changing, correcting or updating information.
You can find the ShipStation Privacy Policy and security measures here.
ShipStation simplifies the shipping process start to finish with features that help you automate and speed up operations. The ShipStation interface offers easy navigation and high functionality, and its mobile app lets you handle business from wherever you are.
