CouriersPlease partners with e-commerce platform eCorner

CouriersPlease has announced a strategic partnership with eCorner, an Australian e-commerce platform that provides services to online retailers and organisations such as Weight Watchers Australia, Gadgets 4 Geeks, Translink and the Australian Institute of Sport. Through the partnership, eCorner is now fully integrated with CouriersPlease’s services.
Over 10 million consumers visited eCorner-partnered online retail sites last year, placing more than 400,000 orders. These customers will now have access to CouriersPlease’s delivery network and will automatically be provided with the option to get their parcels delivered to conveniently located POPPoints of their choice – comprised of retail outlets (POPShops) and parcel lockers (POPStations).
“In the dynamic e-commerce industry, customer expectations are changing and consumers expect reliable and fast shipping,” said Mark McGinley, CEO CouriersPlease. “Customers also want a choice in how and where their parcel is delivered. Our flexible options will give customers of eCorner retailers the option to redirect their parcel at any time during the delivery, at no additional cost. By offering customers access to a range of on-demand, flexible services, online retailers can stay relevant in the industry and compete with giants such as Amazon.”
John Debrincat, CEO, eCorner, added, “At eCorner, we are always looking at ways of improving our offering. We do that by extending the functionality of ePages to support third-party systems. The direct integration of ePages with CP will allow their customers to request convenient shipping options directly from their store. This added feature will allow our clients to enhance their customer experience, so online shoppers won’t miss a delivery.”
