A: Shiptheory is a cloud-based shipping management platform that connects online retailers to carriers, automatically booking shipments, printing labels, and returning tracking numbers within seconds.

Automation is king. We help thousands of merchants ship 5-10x faster and save up to seven hours on shipping per day. Shiptheory operates globally with two headquarters, one in Bristol, United Kingdom and Miami, United States.

We are a product-driven platform with a customer-centric focus. We enable businesses of all sizes to scale their shipping operations and automate boring and repetitive tasks so they can focus on growing their business.

Shiptheory is able to cater for a range of businesses, from marketplace sellers shipping around 50 shipments per month to enterprise operations shipping around 400k per month. The software is scalable and configurable to suit customer needs.

We often get asked ‘what verticals can you work with?’ The answer is ‘Any!’ From coffee companies to healthcare brands, clothing brands to DIY companies, we do it all.

One of the many household names we work with is ScrubDaddy. Starting off as a success on Shark Tank to now being the sole distributor for some of the largest supply companies in the world, we are so happy to be part of scaling Scrub Daddy’s Shipping Operations.

We have also helped one of the first pet food subscription businesses PetShop.co.uk automate their shipping process, saving them the equivalent of £10,000 per year.

Take a look at a bunch of Shiptheory Shipping Success Stories.

A: Here at Shiptheory we genuinely love to get to know every single one of the merchants we work with.

Each business gets a dedicated onboarding specialist and an account manager throughout their journey with us, and our response times are unmatched within the industry, averaging under three minutes! The level of support we offer really does set us aside from other shipping solutions and our customer reviews reflect this.

Alongside this, we offer a range of direct integrations into over 90 global carriers and 60 ecommerce, marketplace, enterprise resource planning (ERP) and order management system (OMS) solutions. These integrations are closely managed by our in-house development team with a consistent launch of new integrations each month.

Shiptheory is configurable enough to set things up once and leave it running in the background. This mode is called the ‘set it and forget it mode’ which is extremely appealing to businesses who want to control things from another platform like Peoplevox and for labels to print out on demand.

On the flip side, Shiptheory does have a user interface that can be used to manage shipments manually, produce handwritten notes and important international data, offset carbon footprint and much more.

A: Our mission aligns with Peoplevox as we both enable businesses to manage their fulfillment process faster and more efficiently. Both Shiptheory and Peoplevox focus on their customers and offer a bespoke service to each business.

Any joint users using Shiptheory and Peoplevox can expect seamless onboarding and technical support throughout.

The integration bridges gaps for businesses looking to save time on their picking, packing and shipping process. Customers who work with both of us can expect exceptional customer service with the best automation technology.
