Multi-carrier shipping means using more than one courier service in your fulfilment process. It gives you options for different destinations, parcel types and delivery speeds, rather than relying on one carrier for every order. Starshipit brings connected carriers into one shipping workflow so teams can compare services and apply routing rules. ### How does multi-carrier shipping software automate carrier selection? Automated carrier selection uses rules to choose a carrier or service from order details such as destination, parcel weight or product type. In Starshipit, retailers set the criteria that reflect their shipping strategy, then review the result as carrier services and order requirements change. ### Can I use my own negotiated carrier rates with Starshipit? Yes. You can connect your own carrier accounts and use your negotiated rates in Starshipit. This lets you keep the carrier agreements that suit your business while managing labels, tracking and shipping rules from one place. Carrier services and available features depend on each carrier integration. ### Why use multi-carrier shipping software rather than one carrier? Using more than one carrier gives your team a fallback when a service is unavailable and more choice for different delivery needs. It can also help you match orders to suitable services by destination, size or speed. The best mix depends on your customers, products and carrier agreements.
