Turn setup into a system that works

Bring your channels, carriers, and team into one dashboard. Our implementation team helps you build automation that sticks—while making tracking, inventory, and returns work better for your customers

Reduce setup stress and avoid rework

New software shouldn’t disrupt your fulfillment. ShipStation’s implementation team guides you through a step-by-step setup, and helps you streamline workflows—from receiving inventory to picking and packing to shipping—so orders move out faster. You have a trusted partner, so labels, packing slips, and notifications are right the first time.

Build workflows your team can run without you

Your best process is what we’re striving for, every time. Standardize shipping workflows across users, shifts, and locations. We help you set up presets, tags, and automation rules to reduce manual work—plus batch label printing to keep pick, pack, and ship moving on busy days.

Improve delivery experience without adding support work

A better post-purchase experience starts with the right setup. We help you configure branded tracking pages, delivery notifications, and returns and exchanges workflows from day one—so customers get clear, timely updates without having to reach out. Set up self-serve returns and simple rules early, so exchanges stay efficient and don’t eat into your margin or your team’s time.

Choose the setup that’s right for you

Guided setup for your core configuration

Start with the essentials that drive day-one value. Connect selling channels, map order statuses, and confirm label and printer settings with our 1-on-1 onboarding team. Configure inventory, warehouses, and returns—along with shipping defaults such as packages, branding, and notifications. This early setup matters. It removes guesswork and helps your team settle into a workflow that feels natural from the first week, helping you save time and money quickly.

White-glove implementation for your real-world workflows

Some teams want a partner in the room who can do it for them. We give you 1:1 support tailored to how you pick, pack, and ship, with the option for on-site setup through our certified partner network.
