About EasyShip
We’re excited to announce that iPacky OMS has partnered with EasyShip to bring seamless shipping and label creation within iPacky’s native platform experience.
With the iPacky EasyShip connector, you will stay in the iPacky interface all the time, with no need to switch to the EasyShip user interface.
It’s very flexible and powerful. You can change carrier/service, number of parcels, shipping address and insurance. It also supports Shopify locations for shipping from different locations and partial fulfillments.
For this to work, you need PrintNode installed.
You can sign up for EasyShip during the integration with iPacky.
Add the EasyShip connector in Connectors→Manage. After that, the EasyShip connector will appear when you expand the Connectors, and you can select it.
When entering for the first time, you have to click on the Connect button. This will open a dialog where you can either create an EasyShip subscription or connect to an existing one.
After this, the rest of the dialog will be populated.
