Our Swan Retail shipping integration connects your Swan Retail System with virtually any leading courier of your choice. Our shipping rules are the most bespoke you will find on the market: if you have an idea for a custom rule and the data exists for it, we’re more than happy to make A trigger B. All customisation, shipping documents and help from our technical support team are included and covered by a flat monthly licencing fee.
Our shipping rules are extremely custom and our technical team will endeavour to make your automation ideas a reality. Our most popular shipping rules are based on shipping weight, destination, value and sales channel.
We use a licence pricing model which means you will be charged by the number of licences you use per month. This means you can easily forecast your shipping integration bill without estimating shipping volumes.
The Shipster control panel allows you to log into your Shipster setup and control the number of licences you have active on each packing bench. This is particularly useful when you want to quickly beef up operations before Black Friday or reduce for quieter periods.
The Swan Retail x Shipster partnership benefits our mutual clients because of our shared goal and collaborative efforts to create a highly custom eCommerce software solution for every retail business that’s as unique as its products.
All shipping documentation is included in the Shipster process. Each relevant document per order is triggered and populated with mapped order, customer and delivery information. All documents are post-Brexit, IOSS and EORI ready.
Our support team are available for troubleshooting over telephone all of the working day and are technically trained to make quick code changes if you need a shipping rule revision or a new one. The team can also set you up with additional couriers.
The Swan Retail x Shipster partnership is rooted in a shared understanding that every eCommerce business and warehouse is different and can be completely unique in the way that they operate. To achieve so many highly bespoke solutions, partnering with other proven platforms allows both our companies to be flexible and meet our clients’ exclusive goals. Businesses can benefit from both the vast tools and omnichannel solutions offered by Swan Retail whilst the specific requirements for shipping can be met by Shipster, which is why our joint system is such a winning combination.

Liaising with Tony and the team on a regular basis is a pleasure. Tony is always more than happy help with any technical issues or any integration work that is required. The service and communication are brilliant. I would highly recommend Tony and his team at Oddsphere. They are a credit and pleasure to work with. Tony has helped on quite a few projects for MissPap over the past 7 months and each time he puts his full commitment to the cause. I can’t thank Tony and his team enough. Without their continued support, MissPap would not have been able to develop as quickly and successfully as it has.
Richard, Operations Manager
The support from Oddsphere for Shipster is second to none. During the implementation of our new warehouse management system including despatch, Shipster was the best-supported element. The service integrates well into all of our carriers and saves a huge amount of time compared to manual entry. The pricing structure of Shipster means the more we send, the more we save which works well for us as a small to medium size business user. Once it’s set up ongoing costs are minimal instead of being tied to a price per parcel. Overall very happy with the service we have received so far.
Gareth O'Rourke, Head of E-Commerce
"We have been using Shipster for 18 months and it has literally transformed our warehouse department. We have managed to fully integrate with our three main couriers and significantly improve the speed, efficiency and accuracy at which the warehouse team are able to push parcels out of the building. We have managed to do this with the same number in our despatch team as what we had 18 months ago, even though parcel volumes have gone from 70,000 to 120,000 parcels."
Chief Creative & Technology Officer
"I’ll take the opportunity now to thank you for the OddSphere service; we’ve had very little interaction with OddSphere – aside from the initial set up – but that’s entirely down to it having worked flawlessly. So thank you."
Mike Crowley, Operation Manager
"Shipster and team have been brilliant in helping to set up a new shipping system and now maintaining it. The biggest win for me is they are just a call away. They took all the stress away when Royal Mail dropped their DMO system by setting up a new API. The only thing I had to do was forward an E-mail onto Shipster. The system is reliable, fixable and robust, just what you need in this fast pace, ever changing business of Ecommerce."
Nathan Bawden, Lead Data Coordinator
"I know I've said it before, but just wanted to say again how impressed I am with your team of folks, they have been nothing but professional at every stage."
Daniel Mitchell, Operations Manager
"Shipster for us was like a breath of fresh air with regards to our old system. From the first initial onboarding meeting with Shipster, we could tell they were going to be a company that we could rely on to support our business growth. I have found that no request is too big or small, I have found the team at Shipster are always available which in comparison to our old system is a blessing."
