Good news, shop owners! FedEx has joined UPS and USPS as the latest integrated shipping carrier in Shopify. This means that users with Business, Enterprise, or Premier plans can charge customers shipping based on estimates that come straight from FedEx. You just need to follow the instructions on our wiki to get some credentials from FedEx, then you enter them on the shipping preferences screen in your Shopify admin interface and you’re good to go.
We know a lot of people have been eager for this integration, so we’re really glad to be able to release it!
Are you able to configure shipping at the product level?
Thanks,
D
Hello,
Should this integration now be available within the store admin? It is not showing up as an option.
Thanks!
David
David: Business/Enterprise/Premier plan subscribers will see FedEx alongside UPS and USPS on the shipping preferences screen.
DefunktOne: you can turn on/off shipping entirely for individual product variants, but you can’t have different groups of shipping rate options for different variants (because each order needs to end up with a single choice).
I implemented this a Fed-X shipping integration a month or so ago and had to remove it because a VERY basic shipping quote was only provided based on WEIGHT and no consideration was given to the SIZE of the package. I have had to remove this functionality because I would loose money.
Is there any way to get accurate shipping quotes using both weight and size?
Is there ANY shopify shipping solution that allows the integration of product dimensions iso that the customer can obtain an accurate shipping quote? This is a huge problem that could so easily be addressed by allowing the dimensions of a product to be stored. I’ve just set up the Canada Post shipping module in both Zencart and Shopify. In Zencart you can store the product dimensions and so the quote is perfect (it also accepts the Canada Post handling charge, which Shopify drops), while in Shopify you’re still stuck in the dark ages with one variable – weight. This is such an easy fix I can’t understand why there hasn’t been any attempt to address this issue in an otherwise excellent product.
Why is this only offered to the Business, Enterprise, or Premier people using Professional need this feature as well… Why block such a feature? Enabling it for professional will help a company grow and in return upgrade their plan… This is a win win!
