BigCommerce

BigCommerce is a leading cloud-based ecommerce platform that helps businesses launch, manage and grow online stores across both B2B and B2C channels. Built to scale, it provides a flexible, professional-grade commerce engine with advanced capabilities for catalogues, pricing, promotions and multi-storefront experiences.  

For MachShip customers, BigCommerce becomes the front door for orders, while MachShip powers the freight and delivery layer behind the scenes. Orders raised in BigCommerce can be converted directly into consignments in MachShip, removing manual re-keying and streamlining the entire shipping process. MachShip can automatically optimise carrier selection and generate shipping labels and documentation so teams can move from order to dispatch with minimal handling.  

The integration supports a rich data flow between systems. Common details such as sending and receiving location, address information, order number, carrier and service type and line-item information (items, quantities, SKUs) are sent from BigCommerce into MachShip to create the accurate consignments. In return, MachShip can return live shipping rates, tracking numbers, carrier and service information, dispatch status and ETAs, so customers and internal teams can see up-to-date delivery information within BigCommerce. 

BigCommerce is well-suited to retailers, wholesalers and brands that are ready to scale beyond basic ecommerce and need a platform that supports multi-storefront, omnichannel selling, and more complex B2B requirements while keeping operational costs under control. When paired with MachShip, it gives freight-heavy businesses a robust foundation to grow online sales and delivery performance together.
