Frequently Asked Questions

E-Commerce Stores have the ability to receive shipping rates from 3rd party applications such as the Advanced Shipping Manager. Customers will continue placing orders in the same way, and their experience will remain the same. They will not see anything differently other than the shipping rate itself. Integration to your E-Commerce Store is completely seamless.

 No. Your customers will remain on your website throughout the entire process. There will be no popups, or any “hacks”.

Yes, you can charge a handling fee by using the Shipping Rate Markup feature. It can be done with a flat rate and/or a percentage of the shipping rate.

Yes, the Advanced Shipping Manager currently supports over 20 freight/trucking companies. We continue to add more companies on a regular basis. If you have a company that you want to use and that we do not currently offer, please contact us. You may be pleasantly surprised. Often we are able to add a shipping company by customer request.
In most cases, we can easily upgrade you. However, if we customized Version 1 for you, we may need to review your installation prior to upgrading. For all upgrade questions, please contact us for detais.
Absolutely! We added this great feature in Version 2. It allows you to add multiple rates to a single shipping method. The rate(s) that are used for that method depend on a set of rules which you can create in the back-end. For example: You can create hybrid shipping methods that charge a flat rate up until five pounds, and then real-time rates kick in over five pounds. You can even have that be a different rule depending on where the item ships from.
If you are using our multiple origin zip code feature, the Advanced Shipping Manager, will use the closest warehouse to your customer’s shipping address. We can also customize this to work with your inventory system, so that only warehouse that actually have the item in stock will be used.
Our new Rate Mapping feature allows you to create different shipping rules for each dropshipper. The rules can all be attached to a single shipping method. For example: You can set “Dropshipper A” to use UPS rates, and “Dropshipper B” to use FedEx rates. If a customer places an order with items that are coming from both dropshippers, our system will calculate both shipments according to the rules that you set.
Absolutely! Please let us know at the time of installation and we will be happy to set this up for you.
