Getting started: API credentials, sender details, and automation

We’ll begin with the key settings that ensure the app runs smoothly:

Adding API credentials: Connect Shopify to your Shipit account by entering the API key in the app settings. This enables data synchronization between Shipit and Shopify. Note that you must have funds in your Shipit Wallet or billing enabled in order to create shipments in the Shipit Shopify app.
Sender address details: Add your company information and VAT/Tax ID numbers required for processing shipments and creating shipping labels. An EORI number is required for international shipments.
Shipment automation: Choose when shipping labels are created – manually, after order fulfillment, automatically upon new order, or another option that fits your workflow. This allows you to customize the process according to your needs.

After completing these settings, you’re ready to move on to defining parcel sizes and delivery methods (PDF instructions steps 4–6, pages 15–36).

Carefully read every step/page of the PDF instructions.

Test Mode

The API key you copied from your Shipit account works only in the production environment.

It cannot be used for testing. For testing, enable Test Mode, which allows you to try out all features without any cost.

Shipments created in Test Mode are not real shipments. All shipping labels will be voided, and carriers will not accept them.

No separate API key is required for Test Mode.

Shipment Automation

What the different automation options mean:

After manual fulfillment

Before you can download shipping labels, you must manually fulfill the order in Shopify.
Please note that if you try to download labels before the order is fulfilled, they may appear blank or empty.

➞ If you are using an external scanning or packing slip app, choose this automation.

After new order

Automatically creates shipments when new orders arrive, but does NOT mark the order as fulfilled.
You will need to log in to the Shipit app via your web browser to download the shipping labels and tracking information.

After new order with fulfillment

Fully automated order processing:

The shipment is created automatically
Tracking numbers and shipping labels are added to the order
The order is automatically marked as fulfilled

→ A perfect solution when you want to manage the delivery process without any manual work.

Attach service point after order (without booking)

This option is designed especially for merchants using ERP and WMS systems.

Example: If you use the Shipit app only to display pickup points at checkout, but want to handle the actual booking and label printing yourself (e.g., through Ongoing), select this setting.

On label download (With fulfillment)

The order is automatically fulfilled when the shipping label is downloaded.

On label download (Without fulfillment)

The shipping label can be downloaded, but the order will not be automatically marked as fulfilled.

Choose the automation that best fits your needs and makes order processing as smooth and efficient as possible.

Delivery method setup and shipping rules

Once you’ve entered the basic information, you can define default parcel sizes and create the delivery methods that suit your store.

Create a default parcel size
Set the dimensions and weight for the default parcel size. This applies to both CCS Plan customers and those without CCS.
Create delivery methods in the Shipit app
You can add one or more delivery methods.
CCS Plan customers can additionally define the delivery method description, enable pickup point selection at checkout, and set the delivery price and currency.
Link a parcel template to the delivery method
Attach the parcel template you created earlier to each delivery method (applies to both CCS and non-CCS customers).
Enable shipping rules (CCS Plan only)
With shipping rules, you can for example:
- Offer free delivery when the cart value exceeds a certain amount
- Hide delivery methods for orders that are too heavy
- Restrict deliveries to certain countries

Shipping rules make deliveries flexible and tailored to each customer. Setting them up is simple, and you can easily add rules to your delivery methods.

Name the rule, for example Free delivery for orders over €50
Click the arrow ⌄ on the far right of the column to open the rule editing fields
- Click Change shipping price if…
- Enter 0 in the price field (New Price)
- Add a condition (Conditions – all conditions):
  - Rule type: Cart Value

Connecting Shipit delivery methods to Shopify with a CCS plan

Once you have created the delivery methods in the Shipit Delivery Checkout app:

In Shopify, go to Settings > Shipping and Delivery and click Manage under Shipping.
Add a rate and select:
Use carrier or app to calculate rates > Shipit
→ Wait for the delivery methods to load.

If you are not using home deliveries: select only one delivery method from the list.
If you are using home deliveries: select all home delivery methods from the list (e.g. Posti Home Package, Matkahuolto Home Delivery, etc.).

Click Done and then Save.

Automatic delivery options and pickup points will appear at checkout without needing to select them individually, but home deliveries will only appear if they are selected individually in Shopify’s settings.

Connecting Shipit delivery methods to Shopify without a CCS plan

Once you have created a delivery method in the Shipit Shopify app, go to your Shopify admin:

Open Settings from the bottom left corner and select Shipping and Delivery.
Click the top Shipping box and select Add rate.
Add a new delivery method:
- The delivery method name must be exactly the same as the one you used in the Shipit Shopify app. The name links the delivery methods created in Shipit and Shopify together.
- Add the estimated delivery time and any additional details.
- Set a price for the delivery method.
- Save the delivery method.

This ensures that delivery methods work correctly at Shopify checkout without CCS.

3. Order processing in Shopify with the Shipit Delivery Checkout app

Open Shopify and go to “Orders.”
Select the order you want to process.
Click the order and review its details.
Make sure the customer’s name, address, phone number, email, and ordered products are correct.
Print the shipping label and mark the order as fulfilled.

At this stage, it’s important to note which automation you are using, as it determines how the order is processed:

whether the order is marked as fulfilled immediately upon label download,
when the next order arrives,
or manually.

Check the automations you have enabled in the PDF instructions or earlier on this page.

Frequently Asked Questions FAQ

If you’re not sure whether CCS (Carrier Calculated Shipping) is enabled in your store, you can check it as follows:

➞ In your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Plan and review your current plan.

The availability of CCS depends on your plan:

Shopify Plus: CCS is automatically included.
Shopify Advanced: CCS is automatically included.
Shopify Grow: CCS is included if you’re on annual billing. If you’re on monthly billing, you can purchase it as an add-on.
Other plans (e.g., Basic): CCS is not available.

If you’re unsure, you can always confirm this by contacting Shopify Support.

If the shipping label downloads as blank (white)

This means that the shipment has not yet been created. A blank shipping label does not contain any information because Shipit has not generated it automatically.

Solution – check the following items:

App connection

Is the Shipit Delivery Checkout app connected to your Shopify store?

API details

Make sure the correct API key is entered in the Shipit Delivery Checkout App Settings.
Also ensure that Shopify’s Shipping and Delivery settings are configured correctly.

Customer details
When you open the order, check that the following details are present:

Address
Postal code
City
Phone number
Email

Automation settings

Which automation are you using? Do you need to fulfill the order before you can print the shipping label?
Check your current automation under Settings → Automation in the Shipit Delivery Checkout app.

Yes. You can create multiple delivery methods and define different prices, pickup points, and parcel sizes for each of them.

We recommend adding at least three different carriers’ delivery methods to your checkout so your customers can choose the option that best suits them. For one customer, the most important factor might be the location of a pickup point or locker; for another, the carrier itself; and for a third, the decision may be based on speed or price.

Having multiple delivery options at checkout improves the customer experience and increases the likelihood that customers will complete their purchase. Different customers have different needs: one prefers fast home delivery, another wants to pick up the parcel from a pickup point, and a third values the lowest possible delivery cost.

Better customer satisfaction – customers can choose the option that suits them best
Fewer abandoned carts – a single delivery option may cause customers not to place an order
Wider reach – in some regions or situations, only certain delivery methods may be available to the customer
Competitive advantage – offering a versatile range of delivery options adds professionalism and reliability to your store

Tip: You can set different rules for your delivery methods, such as free delivery for orders over €100 or limiting pickup points to lightweight shipments. This way, delivery becomes an even more effective part of your sales process.

Yes, you can use your own agreements through Shipit also in the Shopify app.

If you have your own customer number with, for example, Posti, Matkahuolto, DB Schenker, or another carrier, you can add it in your Shipit account settings. After that, the app will use your contract rates for shipments.

If needed, you can contact Shipit’s customer service on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. for more information.
