📅 - E-commerce software and services provider Miva Merchant (mivamerchant.com) has joined with order-fulfillment services provider Shipwire (shipwire.com) to help small and medium-size merchants store and ship their products.
According to the announcement Thursday, Shipwire's Store-Sell-Ship platform will be added to Miva Merchant's online store software, giving customers a complete solution for online retailers including store design tools, marketing services, and built-in payment and shipping options.
With a global network including warehouses in Los Angeles, Reno, Chicago, Toronto, Vancouver and the UK, Shipwire allows merchants to drastically reduce shipping costs by locating inventory closer to buyers. Monthly plans start at an additional $29, enabling merchants to locate inventory in all warehouses.
According to Miva Merchant's announcement, Shipwire is the only logistics, transportation, warehouse and distribution service to integrate instantly with online shopping carts and inventory management systems.
"Shipwire merchants have repeatedly requested a connection between Shipwire and Miva Merchant," Shipwire marketing vice president Nate Gilmore said in a statement. "The Miva Merchant and Shipwire teams worked together to created a module that allows merchants to easily connect Shipwire to Miva so that orders completed through Miva can be automatically fulfilled from Shipwire warehouses in the US, Canada and Europe."
Miva Merchant has deployed more than 200,000 online storefronts since its inception in 1996, providing a varied platform for individual online enterprises and licences for web hosts to deploy e-commerce solutions to customers.
Miva Merchant's partnership with Shipwire is the latest of many strategic alliances including those with Google, Plesk and PayPal. In January, the company partnered with Certification Authority Comodo to offer customers SSL certificates.
