How to Automate Your E-Commerce Shipping Process and Sell Smarter

The first quarter of 2020 was a major turning point for businesses everywhere, with the COVID-19 outbreak changing the way we live and work. 

As movement restrictions were imposed to help control the spread of the virus, both consumers and business owners had to quickly adapt to a new normal — and for many, that meant moving their operations online.

For any business making the shift to e-commerce, taking care of customers and managing orders efficiently is crucial. That’s where automation comes in — especially in the shipping and fulfillment process.

In this post, we’ll walk you through how to simplify and automate your shipping process with EasyParcel and EasyStore so you can focus on selling more and running your business smarter.

What Many Sellers Are Still Doing

Traditionally, when it came to delivering orders, sellers would have to pack their parcels, visit a courier hub, queue up, and fill out shipment details manually. This process not only takes up time but also uses up valuable resources like fuel, manpower, and energy.

Although many courier services now offer door-to-door pickup, there are often requirements — like minimum parcel weight, size, or quantity — and extra fees to meet those conditions.

This is where having a reliable, integrated shipping solution can make a huge difference.

What You Should Be Doing

By integrating EasyParcel with EasyStore, you can automate your entire delivery process. With just a few clicks, you can book deliveries, print airway bills, and arrange parcel pickups without the hassle of multiple manual steps.

So what is EasyParcel?

EasyParcel is an online logistics service platform that lets you compare delivery rates from multiple courier companies and book shipments directly online. Think of it like hotel booking sites such as Booking.com or Agoda.com — but for courier services.

Why You Should Use EasyParcel

1. Automation

EasyParcel automatically generates airway bill numbers, shipping labels, and pick-up requests. It also saves your addresses after the first entry, so you won’t need to manually fill them in again. It’s fast, efficient, and saves you valuable time.

2. Lower Shipping Costs

EasyParcel offers discounted rates, giving businesses access to courier prices they wouldn’t typically get on their own. It simplifies the shipping process while offering affordable rates backed by a team of logistics experts.

3. Choice of Courier Partners

With EasyParcel, you can choose from a wide range of trusted courier partners like J&T Express, Pos Laju, DHL, and more. The platform provides a seamless, customizable booking experience, letting couriers pick up your parcels directly from your home or workspace.

4. Built-in Marketing Tools

EasyParcel comes with tools like SMS and email tracking, branded airway bills, and customizable delivery notifications to help you strengthen your brand presence. Every delivery becomes an opportunity to boost your brand’s visibility and authenticity.

How It Works with EasyStore

1. Auto-Calculate Shipping Rates

Once you connect EasyParcel to your EasyStore, your customers can select their preferred courier service (like SingPost, Aramex, Roadbull, J&T Express, and others) during checkout. The shipping fee is automatically calculated based on the product weight and courier rates — no need for you to manually set them.

2. Fulfillment Automation

You can fulfill orders directly from your EasyStore dashboard through EasyParcel. Select your preferred courier and pickup date, and the courier will collect the parcels right from your doorstep or office — no need for trips to the courier hub.

3. Auto-Fill Airway Bills

EasyParcel auto-generates airway bills with all the necessary shipment details pre-filled. Simply print the airway bill, attach it to your parcel, and you’re ready for pickup. No hand-written labels, no double work — just pure convenience.

In Summary

EasyParcel is more than just a delivery solution — it’s a smart shipping tool that helps businesses stay agile, cut operational costs, and grow their online presence. 

Especially during challenging times like city lockdowns, this kind of automation makes it easier to maintain and even scale your e-commerce business.

With powerful features and seamless integration with EasyStore, you can run your business more efficiently and deliver a better experience for your customers.
