Frequently Asked Questions

How do I automate FedEx shipping?

Shipping rules assign the right FedEx service automatically. Set the conditions once, based on destination, weight, order value, channel, or product, and every order is matched to a service as it imports, ready to print.

Is Zenstores a certified FedEx integration partner?

Yes. Zenstores is a FedEx certified integration partner, so the connection to your FedEx account is built and maintained to FedEx's own integration standard, rather than a generic or reverse-engineered connection.

How do I route international orders to FedEx automatically?

Set destination as the condition in your shipping rules. Orders going to specified countries or regions are assigned a FedEx service as they import, while domestic orders route to your UK carriers from the same queue.

Which FedEx services are available through Zenstores?

Zenstores is a FedEx certified integration partner and supports all FedEx services, including FedEx First, Priority Express, Priority and Economy for UK domestic parcels, and International Priority, International Economy and Regional Economy for shipments abroad.

Can I route high value orders to FedEx automatically?

Yes. Order value is available as a condition in shipping rules, so higher value orders can be sent to FedEx with insurance applied, while everything else routes to your standard carrier.

Do I need my own FedEx account?

Yes. Zenstores connects to your FedEx account, so you ship on the rates you have agreed with them. If you don't have an account yet, get in touch and our team can help you get started.

How do I add customs information to FedEx shipments?

A commercial invoice is generated when the label is created, with descriptions, values, weights and HS codes pulled from the order. Customs data is submitted electronically at the same time, so nothing is completed by hand.

How do I add HS codes to international orders?

Set HS codes against your products once and they apply to every international shipment automatically. The codes travel with the customs data when the label is created.

How do I print FedEx labels in bulk?

Select the orders you want to ship and print the batch in one action. Labels and customs paperwork go straight to your printer with no PDF to open and no print dialogue.

Do I need a thermal printer to print FedEx labels?

No. Integrated labels put the shipping label and the dispatch note on one A4 sheet, with customs paperwork printed alongside, so a laser or inkjet printer is enough. Any integrated label template works, and we recommend S4, S5, S7, S8, S16P, S19 or S20.

How do I create pick lists and packing slips for FedEx orders?

Pick lists and packing slips generate automatically for the batch you're working on. Print them with your labels so the picker, the packer, and the parcel all carry the same information.

How do I check items before a FedEx label prints?

Scan each item against the order using barcode scan-to-pack. Contents are verified before the label is created, which matters most on international orders where a mispick means a slow and costly return.

Where does FedEx tracking data go once a label is printed?

Straight back to the sales channel. The tracking number is pushed to Shopify, WooCommerce, Adobe Commerce, Amazon, eBay, or Etsy, and the order is marked dispatched at the same time.

How long does it take to start shipping with FedEx?

Most brands are shipping within a few days. Connecting your FedEx account takes minutes, then it's deciding which destinations and order types route to FedEx.
