What are the store requirements for ShipWisely?
ShipWisely works on Shopify Plus, Advanced, Grow (formerly Shopify), and Basic plans. Starter isn't supported.
The customer experience depends on your plan: see Getting Started for the plan-to-flow mapping. ShipWisely detects your plan on install and switches flows automatically if you change plans.
Which orders count towards my plan quota?
Which orders count towards my plan quota?
Only orders that go through a ShipWisely-enabled shipping option count:
In-checkout flow: orders where the customer chose a ShipWisely-provided pickup point at checkout.
Post-checkout flow: orders paid with a Shopify shipping option that's linked to a ShipWisely carrier – regardless of whether the customer completed pickup selection afterwards.

Do my BaseLinker / Sendcloud / Shippingbo integrations work with both flows?
Do my BaseLinker / Sendcloud / Shippingbo integrations work with both flows?
Yes. In both flows, the pickup point appears on the order as the shipping address plus a shipwisely.pickup_location order metafield – you can configure your 3PL integrations to read these. The only real difference is timing: in the post-checkout flow, the order is on hold until the customer makes a choice, which is when the pickup point gets recorded.
My order is on hold with the note "Awaiting customer pickup point selection". What's that?
My order is on hold with the note "Awaiting customer pickup point selection". What's that?
That's the post-checkout flow working as designed – see Set up post-checkout pickup for the full picture. ShipWisely holds the order until the customer selects a pickup location on the Thank-you page (or later through the Order status page). The hold is released automatically as soon as the customer makes their choice.
Can I let a customer change their pickup point after they've already picked one?
Can I let a customer change their pickup point after they've already picked one?
Customers can't change their own selection through the banner once it's saved – that's intentional, as it keeps your fulfilment state predictable. However, you can let them pick again from the merchant side, see Set up post-checkout pickup
Why doesn't the pickup point appear on the VAT invoice?
Why doesn't the pickup point appear on the VAT invoice?
Shopify generates the VAT invoice at the time of payment and doesn't regenerate it after subsequent address changes. In the post-checkout flow, this means the pickup point address won't appear on the invoice you can download from the order. See more in Set up post-checkout pickup
