UPS Certified Shipping Integration
By default the shopping cart will calculate rates using a "default" UPS account that does not receive any special discounts to shipping. Once you enter your account credentials the shopping cart will contact UPS and request rates that are specific to your company.
Additionally if you certify an access key with UPS then the shopping cart will automatically generate tracking numbers and shipping labels for you. The tracking number will be given to you and your shopper immediately. And you can print your shipping labels out using our "Print My Orders" tool.
