Easyship consultants

Q: Can Easyship automatically select the best carrier for each order?

Yes. Easyship compares rates from all your connected carriers in real time and can auto-select based on rules you define: cheapest option, fastest delivery, or specific carrier preferences for certain destinations. We configure these rules through n8n workflows so the selection happens automatically when an order is placed, without anyone manually comparing rates.

Q: Does Easyship work with Australian carriers like Australia Post and Sendle?

Easyship connects to Australia Post, Sendle, CouriersPlease, and other Australian carriers alongside international options like DHL, FedEx, and UPS. This makes it particularly useful for businesses shipping both domestically and overseas, as you manage everything from one platform rather than logging into each carrier's portal separately.

Q: Can tracking numbers from Easyship be sent to customers automatically?

We build workflows that push tracking numbers from Easyship back to your e-commerce platform (Shopify, WooCommerce) and optionally send a direct notification to the customer via email or SMS. This happens automatically once a label is generated, so customers get tracking information without your team sending individual emails.

Q: How does Easyship handle customs documentation for international orders?

Easyship generates customs forms automatically using product data from your store -- descriptions, HS codes, declared values, and country of origin. We set up the product data mapping through n8n so the customs information is accurate and complete. This is a major time saver for businesses that ship internationally and were previously filling in customs forms by hand.

Q: Can we connect Easyship to our inventory management system?

Yes. We integrate Easyship with inventory systems so that when an order ships, stock levels update automatically. This works in both directions -- your inventory system knows what's been shipped, and Easyship can flag orders for items that are out of stock before labels are generated, preventing fulfilment errors.

Q: What e-commerce platforms does Easyship integrate with natively?

Easyship has native integrations with Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Magento, and eBay, among others. For platforms without native integration or for custom-built stores, we connect them through Easyship's API using n8n workflows. The API approach also gives you more control over carrier selection rules and fulfilment logic.

We can help you automate your business with Easyship and hundreds of other systems to improve efficiency and productivity. Get in touch if you’d like to discuss implementing Easyship.

About Easyship

Easyship is a shipping management platform that connects e-commerce businesses with courier services worldwide, offering rate comparison, label generation, customs documentation, and shipment tracking from a single dashboard. For Australian businesses selling online — whether domestically, to New Zealand, or internationally — Easyship aggregates rates from Australia Post, Sendle, DHL, FedEx, and dozens of other carriers so you can pick the cheapest or fastest option for each order.

The pain point Easyship addresses is the manual overhead of shipping at scale. When you’re fulfilling ten orders a day, copying addresses and printing labels by hand is annoying but manageable. At fifty or a hundred orders, it’s unsustainable. You need rates compared automatically, labels generated in bulk, customs forms populated from product data, and tracking numbers pushed back to your store so customers can follow their parcels.

We integrate Easyship with your e-commerce platform, inventory system, and customer communication tools using n8n and API connections. When an order comes in through Shopify, WooCommerce, or your custom store, the workflow selects the best carrier based on rules you define, generates the label, and sends the tracking number to both your store and the customer. If you’re looking to automate your fulfilment process as part of a broader system integration, Easyship is a strong middle layer between your store and your carriers.

How it works

We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Easyship

As Easyship consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Easyship with integrate and automate 800+ tools.

Step 1

Audit your shipping operations

We review your current fulfilment process: how orders reach your packing team, which carriers you use, how labels are generated, and how tracking information gets back to customers. We document order volumes, typical destinations, package sizes, and any pain points your team deals with daily.

Step 2

Configure Easyship for your carriers and rules

We set up your Easyship account with your carrier accounts and configure the rate comparison and carrier selection rules. This includes domestic vs international preferences, weight and dimension rules, delivery speed requirements, and cost thresholds. We align these rules with your shipping policy.

Step 3

Design the fulfilment workflow

We map out the automated flow from order received to label printed to customer notified. This includes which system provides order data, how carrier selection happens, when labels are generated (individually or in batches), and how tracking numbers flow back to your store and customers.

Step 4

Build the integrations

We connect your e-commerce platform, Easyship, inventory system, and customer notification tools through n8n workflows. Each integration includes address validation, carrier rule application, label generation, and tracking number distribution, with error handling for invalid addresses or carrier API issues.

Step 5

Test with real orders

We run a batch of real orders through the automated system, verifying that carrier selection, label generation, customs documentation, and tracking notifications all work correctly. Your fulfilment team tests the workflow in their actual packing environment and provides feedback on the process.

Step 6

Go live and scale

After testing, we switch to full production. We monitor the system during the first few weeks, particularly around carrier API reliability and label generation speed. Documentation covers daily operations, troubleshooting common issues, and how to add new carriers or adjust selection rules as your shipping needs change.
