Linex Shipping, Built Into ShipStation

The ShipStation Linex integration connects Linex shipping to ShipStation for merchants with UK-origin cross-border shipments. It lets you create labels suitable for the full journey up to final-mile delivery via Hub-Ez, while managing orders in the same place as the rest of your fulfillment work. Linex supports international shipping, electronic customs submission, tracking, and additional carrier insurance in this connection. That makes it a fit for operational shipping work, not a simple tracking-only experience.

Yes. ShipStation is built for merchants who already have an active Linex account and want to use that carrier relationship inside their normal shipping workflow. To connect, you need a UK-based ShipStation account, an active Linex account, and your Linex username and password. Once connected, your team can create Linex labels without treating the carrier as a separate step outside daily fulfillment.

ShipStation Linex is built for e-commerce shipments originating in the UK and moving cross-border. Linex offers fulfillment, linehaul, and delivery solutions, and ShipStation supports labels suitable for the full journey up to final-mile delivery via Hub-Ez. International shipping is supported in the integration. Domestic shipping is not supported, so Linex in ShipStation is best used when your workflow centers on outbound international orders rather than local parcels.

No. The focus here is merchant shipping workflow, not consumer parcel lookup. If you already have a Linex tracking number, that number can be used on the carrier’s tracking website to view shipment status. Tracking may not be available for all shipping services, so the level of visibility can vary by service. For merchants, the bigger value is managing labels, customs data, and shipment activity inside ShipStation instead of outside it.

Start with ShipStation support resources for the connection flow, and make sure you have the required account details ready before you begin. You need a UK-based ShipStation account, an active Linex account, and your Linex username and password. If you still need Linex access or account credentials, contact Linex directly to get started with the carrier account itself. ShipStation also backs customers with live chat, phone, and email support.

Yes. ShipStation lets you manage Linex inside the same shipping workspace as your wider carrier mix. That matters when your team needs one system for orders, labels, automation, and reporting instead of a different routine for every carrier. ShipStation connects to 200+ carriers and 200+ stores and marketplaces, so Linex can fit into a broader multi-carrier operation as your shipping strategy expands.

You need a UK-based ShipStation account, an active Linex account, and your Linex username and password. Then follow these steps:

• Go to Account Settings
• Select Shipping, then choose Carriers from the sidebar
• Click the Your Carrier Accounts tab
• Click Add Carrier
• Select Linex and click Connect
• Enter your Linex username and password
• Click Connect

That setup keeps the connection simple and uses your existing Linex account details.

No. Domestic shipping is not supported for Linex in ShipStation. The integration supports international shipping, which lines up with Linex’s cross-border focus for e-commerce shipments originating in the UK. If your team ships both domestic and international orders, ShipStation still helps by keeping Linex inside your larger carrier workflow instead of forcing a separate process for cross-border orders. **Tip:** Use clear automation rules so international orders route to Linex only when they match your shipping policy.

Yes. Electronic customs submission is supported for Linex in ShipStation. That means your international customs declarations are submitted electronically to the carrier as part of the shipment workflow. For cross-border teams, that removes extra admin work and keeps customs handling tied to label creation instead of becoming a separate task later in the process. It also keeps international operations cleaner from the start.

No. Return labels are not supported for Linex in ShipStation. If your business depends on carrier-generated return labels, you’ll need to plan that part of your returns workflow separately. You can still use Linex for outbound cross-border shipping and handle returns through a different process. **Tip:** Map your outbound and returns workflows separately before launch so your team knows exactly which carrier handles each step.

No. Estimated rates are not supported for Linex in ShipStation. That means ShipStation will not display Linex estimated shipping rates based on connected account information and shipment details. If you run a multi-carrier operation, ShipStation still gives your team broader rate-shopping tools across other supported carrier options while keeping Linex connected for the shipments it is built to handle. That setup gives you more control without forcing every shipment into one carrier model.

Yes. Shipping labels created for Linex include a tracking number that can be used to view shipment status on the carrier’s tracking website. That helps your team and your customers keep visibility on shipments after labels are created. Tracking may not be available for all shipping services, so it is smart to confirm how your chosen Linex service behaves before rolling it into a customer-facing workflow. That visibility helps keep cross-border orders easier to manage.
