How can I connect carriers to Packrooster Shipping?
To connect carriers, you'll need API keys or user accounts with the carriers of your choice. If you need help to get started, contact our friendly customer service.
Once you have the credentials from the shipping carriers you use, you can enter those in Packrooster Shipping:
Settings -> Carrier settings
From there, you can enter the credentials and also activate the pickup points if the carrier supports those. For pickup points and custom shipping methods created in Packrooster, you'll need a third party carrier calculated shipping -feature for your Shopify store. This feature is included in the Advanced Shopify and Shopify Plus plans, and can be added to any plan for a monthly fee. However, if you're on the Shopify plan or below, and you switch from monthly to yearly billing, you can ask to get the third-party calculated shipping rates feature added for free.
If you use Packrooster Shipping to just connect your Shopify shipping methods to the carrier services, you don't need the third-party carrier calculated shipping methods feature from Shopify.
Shipit users, please note!
Shipit offers shipment services from some of the same carriers that Packrooster Shipping also has a direct integration with. Please note that if you use Shipit, always enter your Shipit credentials to Shipit settings, not the carriers' settings. Also, if you connect your Shopify shipping methods to carriers through Shipit, choose "Shipit" as your carrier, and select the carrier and service underneath it.
