Setting Up Shipping Address

First, we navigate to set up the shipping inside the shop settings. You have two options to reach this section: either directly through the "setup shop" option or via your seller profile.

  1. Contact Person: Enter the contact person’s name and phone number.
  2. Address Details: Fill in the postal code, address, and select the region. For example, if you are in England, choose England and then London (denoted as Greater London).
  3. Submit Information: After filling in all the required details, submit the information. Remember, the shipping address doesn’t have to match your company address as long as it is the correct location for shipping operations.

Setting Up Warehouse Pickup and Return Address

After entering the shipping address, you need to set up the warehouse pickup and return addresses. These can be different from your shipping address.

  1. Access Shipping Options: Navigate to the shipping option from your home page.
  2. Template Creation: Here, you can create new shipping templates. For example, you may create templates for free shipping or standard shipping.

Creating a Shipping Template

  1. Initial Setup: Click on “Add new template.” Name your template according to the shipping type (e.g., Free Shipping, Standard Shipping).
  2. Weight Range and Fees: Define the weight range (0 to 30 kg typically) and set appropriate shipping charges. For example, standard shipping might be set at 2.5 pounds.
  3. Region and Exclusions: Specify the regions within the UK that you serve. If you want to exclude any areas, you can do so here.
  4. Finalize Template: After setting these parameters, submit the template. This template will then be used for your shipping operations.

Editing Warehouse Settings

To change warehouse settings from the default shipping address:

  1. Account Settings: Go to My Account > Account Settings, then navigate to the warehouse settings.
  2. Edit Warehouse Addresses: Edit both pickup and return warehouse addresses to reflect the correct locations.

Choosing Shipping Mode: Shipped By Platform vs. Shipped By Seller

  1. Shipped By Platform: An automatic process where the courier handles the scanning and pickup.
  2. Shipped By Seller: You handle the shipping and can create custom templates using this mode.
