Global Logistics Services

Global logistics services remain a significant barrier to international sales for many U.S. online merchants. Hidden fees, unknown costs, and lengthy delivery times create substantial dissatisfaction for overseas shoppers. For merchants, balancing shipping costs and delivery times, collecting and paying duties and taxes, and managing legal and contractual export restrictions present formidable challenges.

FiftyOne eliminates these barriers and makes fulfillment to international customers as simple as shipping to New Jersey.

International shipping

• Merchant ships all international orders to the FiftyOne U.S. hub using existing U.S. carrier relationship
• FiftyOne manages landed cost calculations, customs clearance, end delivery, and international trade compliance
• Shipping with FiftyOne is a cost-effective solution that is typically faster than the postal service and more economical than a commercial carrier

Online order tracking

• Packages are fully trackable by customer and merchant through a consolidated tracking status interface

Restricted items and licensing management

• FiftyOne rates a merchant's entire catalog to determine which products can be shipped to which countries, and the system continually develops increased accuracy from every shipped item
• Items that cannot be exported to certain countries due to manufacturers' licensing agreements can be screened out at checkout
• Merchandise categories can be hidden using localization logic to exclude them from the products presented to shoppers from certain countries where export is prohibited or problematic
