Creating a shipping label isn't the hard part -- every carrier has a way to generate one. The hard part is what happens after: getting the resulting tracking number back onto the right order, on every marketplace that order came from, without someone copying and pasting it by hand across half a dozen seller dashboards.
Why this becomes a real bottleneck at volume
At low order volume, creating a label and manually updating tracking on one marketplace is a two-minute task. Multiply that by several marketplaces per order and dozens of orders a day, and it becomes the kind of repetitive manual work that either eats real staff time or quietly falls behind -- meaning customers see "processing" on their order status days after it actually shipped.
What a real shipping integration needs to do
Connect to each carrier's actual API to create the shipment and generate the label -- not a manual portal login per shipment. Capture the real tracking number the carrier returns. And push that tracking number back to whichever marketplace the order came from automatically, using each marketplace's own fulfillment API, not a manual status update.
How Vedron handles this
Vedron connects directly to DPD, DHL, FedEx, and InPost through their own shipping APIs -- creating shipments and generating labels through each carrier's real authenticated API rather than a manual portal. Once a shipment is created, the tracking number automatically syncs out to whichever marketplace the order came from -- Amazon, eBay, Allegro, Shopify, Kaufland, eMAG, Bol, CDON, and others -- through each platform's own fulfillment API, gated by a simple per-store toggle if you'd rather control it manually for a specific channel.
Direct about scope: this doesn't include automatic "cheapest carrier" rate comparison today -- carrier selection for a shipment or a bulk batch is a deliberate choice you make, not something the system picks for you based on price. If minimizing shipping cost per order is a priority, that's a manual decision in the current version, not an automated one.
Frequently asked questions
Does this support return shipments, not just outbound?
Return shipment creation is supported for DPD specifically; carrier coverage for returns varies by carrier, worth checking against your specific mix.
What happens if a marketplace's tracking-sync toggle is off?
Tracking still gets created and stored against the order, it just doesn't auto-push to that specific marketplace -- useful if you want to review before sending, or if a channel needs manual handling for another reason.
Can I add a carrier that's not in this list?
Each carrier is its own integration against a real shipping API, so adding one not currently connected is real integration work, not a configuration toggle -- worth a direct conversation if a specific carrier is a hard requirement for you.
Have a question specific to your setup?
