How does the connection between Market Invaders and your carriers work?
MI SBS consolidates orders from your marketplaces, your e-commerce site, and your other connected channels.

Automatically forward your orders to your carriers
Preparing a shipment requires providing several pieces of information: delivery address, items ordered, weight, dimensions, delivery method, and the selected shipping carrier.
With MI SBS, the necessary data can be centralized and then automatically transmitted to your transportation partner according to the defined workflows.
Generate your shipping labels
Creating labels manually can become time-consuming as order volumes increase.
Thanks to the connection between MI SBS and your carriers, shipping labels can be generated automatically based on the features available for the respective carrier
Automate the submission of tracking numbers
Package tracking is essential for keeping customers informed and meeting marketplace requirements.
After shipment, tracking numbers can be retrieved and automatically forwarded to the relevant sales channels, ensuring reliable marketplace package tracking regardless of the carrier used.
Comply with the marketplaces' logistics requirements
Marketplaces evaluate sellers' service quality based on several metrics related to order processing and shipping.
Fulfillment times, shipping confirmation, and the quality of tracking information can impact the performance of your seller accounts.
