Technology

edit

AfterShip offers several customizable eCommerce solutions to support brands at each stage. AfterShip is most recognized for its automated shipment tracking,[14] supporting over 1,100+ shipping services worldwide, including UPS, FedEx and DHL.[15][16] Users can check the status of shipments across multiple carriers, and automatically receive emails and notifications at different stages of shipment delivery.

AfterShip integrates with major e-commerce platforms like Shopify, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Bigcommerce, eBay, and Magento.[15][17]

In January 2014, AfterShip launched a package tracking API[18] that allows online retailers to get tracking information from different carriers via AfterShip as a single source.[19] Online retailers can use AfterShip API to display tracking details and information on the website, and monitor carriers’ delivery performance over time.[20]
