Business needs 


As a retailer, you make a huge effort in acquiring customers and providing delightful on-site customer experiences, only to leave the post-purchase delivery experience in the hands of third-party shipping carriers.

  • One in five parcels face delivery issues such as late deliveries, lost packages, or damaged parcels  
  • Popular surveys suggest that 65% of your loyal shoppers won’t shop with you after just one bad delivery experience 
  • You are paying for sub-standard delivery services from your carrier, resulting in you overpaying a carrier’s invoice by up to 20% every month.
