Ship DHL eCommerce for lightweight parcel volume

DHL eCommerce moves parcels through its own network and hands off for final delivery, which usually prices below a direct national carrier on lightweight shipments that can spend an extra day in transit.

How the DHL eCommerce integration works

  1. Connect your DHL eCommerce account

    Add your DHL eCommerce account and negotiated rates to CommerceShip. Your discounts apply as they do today, and you can also draw on our carrier discounts.

  2. Set services and rules

    Load your DHL eCommerce contract rates, choose the service levels to offer, and add DHL eCommerce to the rules that pick a carrier per shipment.

  3. Test against past shipments

    Rate last month's shipments with DHL eCommerce in the mix and see where it would have won, before the rules go live.

  4. Rate, label, track, audit

    Every shipment rates DHL eCommerce against your other carriers, labels print as each shipment is rated, and tracking is standardized across carriers. Each DHL eCommerce invoice is checked line by line against the shipment record.
