Bespoke Shipping App | Rendr

Overview

Bespoke Shipping is a third party Shopify app that connects a merchant’s Shopify checkout to Rendr’s Quote API. It is the recommended quoting method for any merchant dispatching from more than one location.

How quoting works

Shopify sends the checkout delivery details to Bespoke.
Bespoke calls Rendr’s Quote API to request live rates.
Rendr returns live services, pricing and ETAs for Fast (3 Hour) and Same Day.
Bespoke displays these as selectable shipping rates at checkout.

How multi-location quoting is supported

Bespoke imports every Shopify location, and the merchant maps each one to a Rendr store ID.
At checkout, Bespoke reads per location inventory to identify which stores hold the items in the cart.
Only those eligible store IDs are passed to Rendr, with “Return rates from” set to “Closest Store”.
Rendr selects the optimal fulfilment location based on proximity, service level and service availability, then returns the rate for that store.

Success looks like: Once configured with Rendr, customers see accurate, real time delivery pricing at checkout, and each order is quoted against a store that can genuinely fulfil it.
