What is Shipway?

Shipway is an Indian shipping aggregator for D2C and marketplace sellers, run by Shipway Technology Pvt Ltd and now part of Unicommerce. From one dashboard a seller can book shipments across 20+ courier partners (Delhivery, Bluedart, Xpressbees, DTDC, Ekart and others), print labels, track parcels, handle returns and chase failed deliveries. Shipway says over 5,000 online sellers use it, including brands such as Phool, HUFT and Libas.

The cost model is mostly pay-per-shipment. Signing up is free, you recharge a prepaid wallet, and freight is deducted per order, with rates advertised from Rs 19 per 500 g. A first-recharge offer currently doubles a Rs 1,000 top-up. Shopify merchants who want to plug in their own courier contracts can buy one-time USD packs in the Shopify app (Silver $39.99, Gold $99.99, Platinum $169.99), each capped by order count and number of couriers.

Where Shipway stands out is post-purchase work: COD order verification over WhatsApp, fraud flagging, automated NDR follow-ups, branded tracking pages and early COD remittance (as quick as D+2). The catch is that the full rate card sits behind a seller login, SMS, WhatsApp and returns usage are charged on top, and the Shopify app has a visible share of one-star reviews, so test support responsiveness during your first weeks.

What works well

  • +No subscription needed to start; you pay freight per shipment from a prepaid wallet
  • +Single dashboard for 20+ couriers covering 19,000+ pin codes
  • +RTO tools built in: COD confirmation, fraud detection and automated NDR follow-ups
  • +Early COD remittance, advertised as fast as D+2
  • +Android and iOS apps for order processing, courier assignment and wallet checks
  • +Integrates with Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, Flipkart, Magento, Unicommerce and EasyEcom

What to watch out for

  • −The detailed rate card is only visible after logging in as a seller
  • −SMS, WhatsApp and returns modules are billed separately on top of plans
  • −Shopify app packs are priced in USD and capped by orders and courier count
  • −19 of 182 Shopify app reviews are one-star, so service experiences vary
  • −Little publicly documented security or certification information

Best suited for: Indian D2C brands on Shopify or WooCommerce shipping COD-heavy orders · Small sellers who want discounted courier rates without signing courier contracts · Brands struggling with RTO losses who need NDR and COD verification automation · Unicommerce or EasyEcom users wanting a connected shipping layer
