“We use Zenstores for all of our ecommerce shipping. It's made our business far more efficient.”
Built around how your warehouse actually works
The warehouse, not just the label
Pick waves, routed picking and scan-to-pack sit inside the platform, so the physical dispatch work is covered rather than ending when the label prints.
Your setup built with you
We connect your channels, link your carrier accounts and build your routing rules before you go live. You are not handed documentation and left to configure it.
A real person, first time
Live chat, email and phone on every plan, answered by the team who set you up. You are not routed through an AI assistant to reach them.
Carrier integrations kept current
When a carrier changes a service or a data requirement, we update the integration. Nothing breaks quietly in the middle of a dispatch run.
Priced in pounds, on what you ship
A subscription plus a per-label fee, in sterling. No currency conversion moving your bill, and no label allowance to outgrow mid-quarter.
The warehouse layer most platforms stop short of
Orders batch into waves, the pick is routed around your shelves, and every item is confirmed by scan before it is sealed. Your team works the screen instead of a printed list.
- Waves grouped by carrier, service and cut-off
- Pick routes ordered by shelf location
- Label prints only on a confirmed scan
Your accounts, our rates, or both
Bring the carrier contracts you already have, or ship on Zenstores' pre-negotiated rates. Both run side by side and we keep every integration current as carriers change.
- Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, DHL, FedEx, Parcelforce and more
- Your own accounts connected on any plan
- Service and data changes handled by us, not by you
Customs paperwork that clears the first time
Commodity codes come in with your products or are set once in Zenstores, then travel with every shipment containing the item. UK-to-world routing built by people who ship it daily.
- HS codes imported with your products or set once in Zenstores
- Your own IOSS number, or the marketplace's, picked per order
- CN22, CN23 and commercial invoices printed with the label

Questions about switching from ShippyPro
Yes, particularly if the warehouse side matters to you. ShippyPro has a large carrier library and strong post-purchase tooling around the label. Zenstores covers pick, pack and dispatch as well as carrier routing, and our team builds the setup with you rather than handing you documentation.
Zenstores includes live chat, email and phone support on every plan, answered by the same team who set you up. ShippyPro runs an AI assistant as its first line of chat, and merchants on public review sites report there is no support telephone number.
ShippyPro sells plans with a monthly label allowance, priced in euros and converted for UK buyers, so your bill moves with the exchange rate and with your allowance tier. Zenstores prices in pounds with a subscription plus a per-label fee, so the cost tracks the volume you actually ship.
On Trustpilot, ShippyPro scores 3.4 out of 5 and Zenstores scores 4.9 out of 5, as at August 2026. On the Shopify App Store, ShippyPro holds 4.4 out of 5 and Zenstores 5 out of 5.
Most brands are live within a few days. Our team rebuilds your routing rules and links your carrier accounts for you rather than handing you documentation. ShippyPro keeps running until you are ready to move the queue across.
Yes. Zenstores builds pick waves, routes the pick around your shelves and confirms every item by barcode scan before the label prints. That warehouse layer sits alongside carrier routing rather than stopping at the label.
