UPS gives consumers in the U.S. and Europe more flexibility
UPS has teamed up with HubBox to create an easy-to-use and easy-to-implement application that makes UPS Access Point locations in the U.S. and Europe visible in the checkout process.
HubBox works with retailers to incorporate the Ship to a UPS Access Point location service into their website so they can offer consumers convenient alternatives to home delivery. In addition, HubBox can connect to retailers’ label printing solutions in order to streamline the label printing process. This solution helps businesses of all sizes that don’t have the IT resources or in-house knowledge to develop these capabilities.
Through HubBox, U.S. retailers can offer consumers the option to ship to more than 21,000 UPS Access Point locations in the U.S. and more than 17,000 UPS Access Point locations in Europe.
“This is yet another example of how UPS is delivering solutions to businesses that want to stand out in the competitive retail landscape, while at the same time creating options and improving convenience for consumers,” said Bill Smith, Vice President of Global Product Innovation at UPS.
“HubBox’s click-and-collect solution can integrate seamlessly into a retailer’s website and make it easy for customers in the U.S. and Europe to ship to the best UPS Access Point location that fits their busy schedules.”
“We’re thrilled to be working with UPS to make the convenience of picking up packages at a UPS Access Point location even easier,” said Sam Jarvis, Founder and CEO at HubBox.
“Combining our specialised software with UPS’s unrivalled transportation and logistics network means that e-tailers of all sizes can employ an easy and convenient local pickup solution offering speed, safety and simplicity.”
