At ClickShip, we know our partners are a vital part to building a successful business. We provide exclusive shipping rates and quality services to our customers, which doesn’t happen without partnering with the best carriers in the industry.
We offer shipping solutions tailored toward eCommerce retailers. Not only do we try to partner with the best for our shipping services, but we do the same for all our integrations as well.
Choosing partners for our business is never easy, but it comes down to a matter of mutual goals, vision, and values. This is why we are excited to announce our integration with BigCommerce.
What is BigCommerce?
Established in 2009, BigCommerce has helped thousands of eCommerce sellers build their online businesses and has assisted in establishing brands to be recognized in over 150 countries worldwide.
BigCommerce is a public eCommerce software company that provides SaaS (Software as a Service) on their eCommerce platform to allow business owners to set up an online store and sell their products on the web. In addition, BigCommerce provides unique marketing services and tools built into the platform that helps generate traction and lets companies differentiate within the industry.
BigCommerce allows business owners to generate an online store, customize it to their liking and then sell an unlimited number of products and services online. ClickShip offers courier and LTL (pallet) that can help streamline your shipping, offering better services to your customer.

As mentioned earlier, any good partnership is about both sides providing a value-add. For ClickShip customers considering a multichannel sales strategy, or simply deciding on a platform for a dedicated eCommerce storefront, BigCommerce may be the right option for you.
ClickShip Integration Requirements
BigCommerce offers its eCommerce users access to an all-in-one online store platform with features such as a built-in storefront and backend features to help integrate and manage your shipping process. As every business is unique, the BigCommerce platform offers its users logistical integrations to offer flexible solutions that suit the needs and growth of you, your store, and your customers at every stage.
One of the many big initiatives BigCommerce has been working on is educating B2B store owners to move their stores onto a trusted online platform. As a large B2B business, your customer base has moved online as they are seeking more personalized experiences, flexible payment options, and quick convenient deliveries when purchasing from your store.
