Competitive DPD rates are available in a single online postage account easily accessible within ShipStation. Users can set up auto-funding and maintain a single balance to start printing labels for any carrier in the ShipStation Carrier Services program. ShipStation supports DPD services from Two Day to Next Day, as well as Saturday service and DPD Classic and merchants can let customers create returns labels through ShipStation's innovative Branded Returns Portal.
Existing invoiced account holders can connect their accounts and print DPD labels with their negotiated rates and save time and money with ShipStation's shopping cart and marketplace syncing, automation rules, and bulk printing.
"Partnering with DPD allows us to give our users access to one of the UK's leading time-critical couriers," said Robert Gilbreath, Chief Marketing Officer and Vice President of Partnerships at ShipStation.

Merchants will be able to expand their delivery and fulfilment choices to fit their strategy and business needs.
