The company will leverage the latest investment to enhance its shipping business.

Shippo co-founder and CEO Laura Behrens Wu said: “Shipping shouldn’t be seen as a cost centre, it’s a growth engine. When used properly, shipping is a tool for businesses to gain consumer confidence, increase conversions, and drive repeat buying by building loyalty. Except, many of these benefits have historically been reserved for the savviest and most resource-rich businesses. 

“Shippo is changing that dynamic. We’re making shipping an order as easy as sending a text message. Merchants will no longer stress over the right carriers to use, shipping options to show their customers or labels to purchase. They trust Shippo to optimise for their growth.”

Founded in 2013, Shippo is developing an advanced shipping platform for e-commerce businesses.
