Fulfillment Web Services API to integrate a shopping cart.
If you can’t find your software listed, then let us know. We’re happy to contact your software vendor, and work with them to get their software compatible.
If you can provide us with a specific contact for your sofware vendor, then the integration process will go much faster.
Alternately, you have two options:
When integrating your third part shopping cart (sell tools) with Shipwire it is desirable to accurately quote your customer the same shipping cost that Shipwire directly changes to ship your goods. A new Shipping API is now available that Shipwire and 3rd party developers are integrating into shopping carts that will directly provide exact shipping rates from Shipwire. Shipping Rate Web Services API
As many carts may be slow to adapt this, there are a few ways to work around this. Most carts let you get shipping cost quoted from UPS, USPS or others that you can use for checkout. These rates quotes will be close to the Shipwire cost to ship your order. So your customer is charged appropriately based on their location and the shipping service they want. Once you capture your order it is send to Shipwire for fulfillment.
There are a few things that you need to be aware for:
1 - Remember that when using this method the ship-from address is the warehouse. Be sure to configure your shipping cart appropriately. You want the rate quoted as from your warehouse.
2 - If you are getting rates based on a specific shipper account like your own UPS account, the rate may be quoted based on your specific address configured on your account which is likely your business address. For your Shipwire rate quotes you may need a separate account using the warehouse location as the address. You may run into this with FedEx or others as well. It’s something to be aware of.
If you have other questions about how to do this please contact support.
If you want to automate order entry, we need each product ID, or SKU, in your Shipwire account to match a SKU in your online store. For example, if a customer purchases SKU or Model # KSW101 in your store, then Shipwire will look for KSW101 in your account, and ship this item from inventory. To provide us with this unique product identifier, sign into your account, and select the Add Products option, and follow the instructions.If you have a lot of SKUs, you can use a spreadsheet to synchronize the SKUs in your Shipwire account, with those in your online store.
Shipwire Compatible Shopping Carts
Shipwire-compatible shopping carts are compatible because Shipwire or the software vendor took the time to make sure their software works with Shipwire.
The Shipwire interfaces are extremely reliable. If you continue having problems, we must recommend you look at alternate shopping cart vendor.
