Courier Aggregator: Definition, Meaning & Guide for Indian Businesses
Courier aggregators (Shiprocket, Delhivery, EasyShip, ShipRocket, NimbusPost) integrate multiple courier APIs into one — letting sellers pick the cheapest/fastest per pincode in real time.
What is Courier Aggregator?
Courier aggregators reduce the operational overhead of e-commerce shipping. Instead of integrating with Delhivery, Bluedart, Ekart, FedEx separately, you integrate once with the aggregator and they route each order to the optimal courier based on pincode, weight, COD/prepaid and SLA. Common players: Shiprocket (broadest), Delhivery Direct, NimbusPost, ShyplWiz, Pickrr (now Shiprocket). Pricing: ₹35-80 per shipment for surface, ₹100-250 for air. Most include free pickup, COD remittance and return management.
