100+ shipping carriers, one connected system
Uphance plugs your warehouse into the carrier network apparel brands actually use, without forcing your ops team to jump between rate shopping, label printing, and inventory reconciliation. Carrier activity flows back to order status, returns, inventory, and reporting in one connected system.
Carrier coverage is delivered through three pathways:
- Direct carrier connections, the primary route for DTC and wholesale shipping. Uphance connects directly to 100+ carriers, FedEx, UPS, USPS, DHL, Royal Mail, Canada Post, Australia Post, Evri, DPD, and dozens of other regional carriers. Rate-shop, print labels, consolidate packing, and track fulfilment from one queue, with no separate shipping tool in the middle.
- Direct 3PL and warehouse partners, Bergen Logistics, ACR Supply Partners, Mintsoft, Microlistics, and similar partners bring their own carrier networks. Uphance sends pick tickets and ASNs; the partner handles carrier selection and label printing.
- ShipStation, supported for brands already standardised on it, so you can keep an existing label and rate-shopping workflow alongside Uphance.
What stays in sync
- Pick, pack, ship. Uphance warehouse operators scan, pack, and print carrier labels directly, then status writes back automatically.
- Inventory across locations. Shipment completion decrements the right location in Uphance, so wholesale allocation and DTC availability don't drift.
- Tracking. Tracking numbers and carrier URLs post to order records and flow out to Shopify, B2B portal, and marketplaces so customers see real status, not guesses.
- Returns. RMA labels generated in Uphance tie back to the originating order, so returns are reconciled against inventory and AR without a manual trail.

How this fits into Uphance
Shipping is one leg of warehouse execution. Breakpoint 5 in our 6 Breakpoints framework, warehouse execution getting less predictable, is the operational reality that makes carrier orchestration worth connecting rather than bolting on. In a connected system, label printing is an outcome of an order flow, not a separate swivel-chair step between Shopify, the 3PL portal, and the accounting system.
If wholesale and DTC are both going through the same warehouse (or 3PL), and carrier selection changes by order type, region, or service level, Uphance is where the orchestration lives.
Get started
Carrier coverage is scoped during discovery, based on where you ship, which carriers you already have contracts with, and how your 3PL operates. Book a tailored demo and we will walk through the specific carrier pathways that apply to your operation.
