"A Multi Carrier ..." What?
We, at LogTrade, have developed a Multi Carrier Checkout in cooperation with the Swedish-Danish postal service, PostNord. The checkout makes it possible for you to offer your customers:
- New delivery options that can easily be customized in the platform. No further development is necessary.
- Delivery options that are automatically adjusted based on where the customer is, enabling them to choose the delivery office they prefer from a map.
- Graphic renditions of carriers and their delivery options make it possible for the customer to choose the option they prefer based on variables such as price or fast delivery―super easily and without losing their temper.
Even though the checkout was developed together with PostNord, it can be used with a variety of carriers. You select which carriers your customers can choose between. If you want to include, for example, DHL, Bring and Budbee in your checkout, that is no problem at all.
Your customers would then see all DHL service points on a map and can for example select a home delivery from Bring or Budbee.
