SHIPSTATION ADDS HERMES TO DISCOUNTED CARRIER SERVICES FOR UK-BASED MERCHANTS
ShipStation Carrier Services is a platform that gives its customers free access to carrier labels through a single online postage account.
“We are thrilled to be able to provide UK merchants with immediate access to great Hermes rates within ShipStation,” said Robert Gilbreath, Vice President of Marketing and Partnerships at ShipStation. “Merchants will benefit from the ability to start printing labels without contracts, minimum commitments, and without delay.”
This integrated relationship will enable new businesses and online entrepreneurs to benefit from a level playing field with their established, larger counterparts with access to the same great tools and discounted rates. Established merchants will be able to expand their delivery and fulfilment choices to fit their strategy and business needs.
Claire Phelan, Head of Hermes Send and Partnerships, said: “Our relationship with ShipStation is a step forward for the smaller seller community, who can now access great rates with this partnership. We’re also pleased to collaborate with ShipStation to continue our growth in the UK and overseas, specifically the US, and are looking forward to working together.”
ShipStation users can take advantage of attractive, pre-negotiated rates and create labels for ParcelShop Drop Off. Pricing starts at £2.25 (excl. VAT, delivery to mainland UK) for small parcels. Medium-sized parcels between 2 and 5 kg start as low as £4.59.. With over 4,500 locations, open 7 days a week, 92% of UK merchants live within 2 miles of a ParcelShop.
In addition to the ShipStation Carrier Services programme, ShipStation will continue to support customers with the seamless connection of existing Royal Mail, DHL, FedEx, and UPS accounts into the ShipStation platform.
