E-commerce Fulfillment

Automate your entire shipping workflow. When an order comes in, compare carrier rates, create the shipment, generate the label, and hand off to fulfillment - all with a single API integration.

The Challenge

E-commerce businesses juggle multiple carrier integrations, manually compare rates, copy-paste tracking numbers, and deal with inconsistent label formats. Each carrier has its own API, its own quirks, and its own breaking changes.

The Uniship Solution

One API call replaces dozens of carrier integrations. Uniship automatically compares rates, picks the best carrier, creates the shipment, generates the label, and starts tracking - all in milliseconds.

· Benefits

What you gain

Save Engineering Time

One integration instead of 30+. Focus on your product, not carrier APIs.

Lower Shipping Costs

Automatic rate comparison finds the cheapest option for every shipment.

Faster Fulfillment

Labels generated instantly. No manual data entry or format conversion.

Scale Without Limits

Batch create hundreds of shipments per minute during peak seasons.

· Code Example

Integration example

A real-world implementation using the Uniship SDK.

POST /v1/shipments
import Uniship from '@uniship/sdk'

const client = new Uniship('sk_live_...')

// Compare rates across carriers
const rates = await client.rates.compare({
  sender: warehouse,
  recipient: order.address,
  parcels: order.items
})

// Pick cheapest & create shipment
const shipment = await client.shipments.create({
  carrier: rates[0].carrier,
  ...orderData
})

console.log(shipment.label_url)
