Our edge

Boxify’s core advantage is its instantaneous rate-shopping engine that queries Canada Post, UPS, FedEx, Purolator, DHL, and regional carriers simultaneously. Unlike manual rate tables or single-carrier portals, our system processes weight, dimensions, origin, and destination data in milliseconds to return side-by-side quotes. It factors in dynamic surcharges—fuel, residential delivery, extended area—and promotions negotiated through our volume-discount agreements. This level of transparency ensures users always select the lowest-cost, fastest-transit option. The UI highlights best-value services, shows carbon-emission estimates per route, and allows easy filtering by delivery timeframe or carrier preference.

Generating compliant shipping labels, commercial invoices, and customs declarations can be error-prone and time-consuming. Boxify automates every step: once you confirm a service, we populate and format labels to each carrier’s specifications, batch-print thermal or laser labels, and embed scannable barcodes. For cross-border shipments, our system creates fully compliant NAFTA/USMCA certificates, customs invoices with HS codes, and electronic Export Declarations. Users avoid delays, fines, and returned shipments. All documents are archived for six years to meet CRA audit requirements, accessible in PDF form with a single click.

Boxify consolidates tracking events from multiple carriers into a unified timeline. Instead of juggling separate portals, users view pickup, transit, and delivery milestones in one dashboard or mobile app. Our alert engine sends customizable email or SMS notifications—for “Out for Delivery,” “Customs Clearance,” or “Exception” events—keeping both shipper and recipient informed. Detailed geolocation stamps and timestamps help resolve disputes quickly. Analytics report average transit times, delay causes, and carrier performance metrics, empowering data-driven carrier selection for future shipments.

Managing shipping costs across dozens of orders can lead to invoice headaches. Boxify centralizes billing by consolidating all carrier invoices into a single monthly statement, categorizing charges by department, product line, or sales channel. Automated reconciliation matches each label to its invoice entry, flags discrepancies, and generates accounting exports compatible with QuickBooks, Xero, or NetSuite. Budget dashboards display real-time spend versus targets, alerting managers when thresholds are approached. This level of financial control prevents unexpected fees and simplifies audit-ready reporting.

For businesses with existing e-commerce or ERP platforms, Boxify offers plug-and-play connectors for Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, and custom RESTful API endpoints. Orders flow automatically from your storefront into Boxify: rates are fetched, labels generated, and tracking numbers synced back—eliminating manual data entry. Our API supports batch operations, webhooks for status updates, and customizable workflows to fit unique business rules. Implementation typically takes under a day, with developer support and sandbox testing environments provided at no extra cost.

Recognizing the environmental impact of parcel transport, Boxify highlights carbon-offset programs and green courier services. For each quote, we display estimated CO₂ emissions and offer one-click carbon offset purchases through certified reforestation and clean-energy projects in Canada. We also partner with carriers offering electric-vehicle last-mile delivery in major cities. Sustainability reports summarize yearly emissions and offset contributions, helping businesses meet CSR goals and appeal to eco-conscious customers without adding administrative burden.
