What is a Multi-Packet Shipment?
A multi-packet shipment allows you to ship multiple packages under a single order on Shiprocket. This is useful when you have an order with several items that need to be shipped in separate packages, potentially due to size or weight limitations.
Benefits of Multi-Packet Shipment:
- Saves Time: You only need to create one order and print labels for all the packages.
- Cost-Effective: Multi-packet shipment might be a cheaper option in comparison to sending individual packages. Less packaging can also lead to cost savings.
- Easier Tracking: All the individual packages can be tracked with the single master AWB.
Currently, enabling Multi-Packet Shipment (MPS) requires completing Shiprocket's MPS training.
Here's how to get started:
- Contact Shiprocket Seller Support: Reach out to Shiprocket's seller support team through their available channels (phone, email, etc.).
- Schedule MPS Training: Request to schedule the MPS training session.
- Complete Training: Once scheduled, attend the MPS training to learn about the feature and its proper use.
