ShipStation is an advanced eCommerce and shipping solution for online retailers for importing and managing orders. This platform integrates with multiple sales channels as well as integrating with all the main shopping cart apps and market places. They also provide integrations with email providers and Business Intelligence tools. This platform is mobile friendly and has a useful app that allows you to track, ship, and manage orders.

Overview of ShipStation

ShipStation is an all-in-one platform for organizing inventory and order management. Satisfied users define it as the ideal fulfilment platform and it’s considered a leader in the field because of the large set of integrations with carriers. Thanks to this platform, companies can offer professional order tracking and subsequently improve their customer service levels.

The first thing ShipStation allows you to do is to import order data from an unlimited number of sources, including all popular shopping carts and marketplaces.

ShipStation doesn’t stop you from using your preferred carriers and fulfilment partners. You can add all the accounts you’re using, setup and arrange order details and start delivering in minutes. One of the best advantages of this system is that it is simple to use – follow the instructions provided by the vendor, and you will have it set up the same day you’ve installed it.

Another important benefit is that ShipStation preserves the discounted rates from carriers and fulfilment providers (up to 40%), and import those to your free USPS postage account to lower your monthly subscription.
