Question 1

How does the WooCommerce integration work?

Accepted Answer

Orders from WooCommerce are automatically imported into CommerceShip when they are placed. You can configure routing rules to assign orders to specific warehouses or carriers, generate shipping labels, and push tracking numbers back to WooCommerce for customer visibility.

Question 2

Can I fulfill WooCommerce orders from multiple locations?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Route orders to different fulfillment locations (warehouses, 3PLs, retail stores) based on inventory availability, proximity to customer, or custom rules. Set up automation rules to assign orders automatically or route manually based on your workflow.

Question 3

How do I track costs from WooCommerce orders?

Accepted Answer

View spend by carrier, service level, destination, and SKU. Compare quoted rates vs. invoiced costs, identify billing adjustments, and run scenario analysis to model cost changes. Track budget vs. actual across all WooCommerce fulfillment activity.

Question 4

Can I automate fulfillment for WooCommerce orders?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Build automation rules with conditions (order value, weight, destination, SKU) and actions (assign carrier, route to location, set dimensions, generate labels). Test rules against historical orders before activating on live WooCommerce orders.

Question 5

Do I need a separate plugin for each carrier?

Accepted Answer

No. One connection covers every carrier you have enabled, so adding a regional carrier or a consolidator is a setting.

Question 6

How are WooCommerce order statuses handled?

Accepted Answer

Orders import on the status you choose, usually processing, and move to completed when the label is generated and tracking posts back. Custom statuses from other plugins can be mapped so the sync respects a workflow you have already built.

Question 7

Does this work on a self-hosted WooCommerce store?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The connection runs over the WooCommerce REST API, so self-hosted and managed installations both work. Your store keeps running where it runs now, and no order data has to move to a different commerce platform.

Question 8

What access does CommerceShip need to WooCommerce?

Accepted Answer

The connection uses scoped credentials limited to the record types the integration works with, and you choose which fields are included. Credentials are encrypted at rest and stored separately from your operational data. Revoke the connection from either side at any time and the access ends with it.

Question 9

How is my data protected?

Accepted Answer

TLS in transit and AES-256 at rest, with tenant isolation enforced by row-level security in the database. Role-based permissions control who on your team can see cost data or change carrier settings, and automated actions are written to an audit log. CommerceShip is pursuing SOC 2 Type II certification. The security page carries the full detail.
