ITD Global is the single shipping partner for businesses moving parcels across the UK. The country's biggest carriers sit under one account, and each parcel goes with the best-value carrier that can deliver, so the margin stays yours.
The problem
Carriers advertise a headline price, then bill the extras weeks later: Highlands surcharges, residential levies, re-weighs, address corrections. You priced the order on the quote. The margin leaves on the invoice.
The right one depends on where a parcel's going and what it weighs. Send it all the same way and you overpay on some and miss the delivery date on others.
Tracking goes quiet, the customer chases you, and the refund comes out of your pocket while the carrier caps the claim and takes weeks to pay. You did everything right and you're still the one apologising.
Each audience uses the same platform differently. Jump to the section that fits you.
Built for eCommerce
Courier rates climb year on year, and the carrier that saves you most shifts from one order to the next. Connect your Shopify or WooCommerce store and each order routes to the best-value carrier the moment it's placed, with labels and returns handled in one click.
Built for Marketplace sellers
On a marketplace, one late delivery becomes a defect, and a defect costs you the rating you've spent years building. Amazon, eBay, Etsy, TikTok Shop and Temu orders flow into one dispatch queue with each marketplace's deadline applied, so the carrier that can actually hit it gets the parcel.
Built for 3PLs
Single-carrier deals cap your rates and leave nothing to earn on shipping. Set each client's carriers, packaging and routing rules once, onboard new brands in days instead of weeks, and make a margin on the parcels you ship instead of passing the carrier's bill straight through.
Built for B2B
Wholesale and Amazon injection are won or lost on the SLA. ITD routes each consignment to a service that meets your partner's delivery and labelling terms and protects your margin, turning compliance into growth instead of chargebacks.
Built for Enterprise
Carrier portals, a legacy WMS, and each new lane turns into an IT project. Run 2,000+ parcels a day the way you've always pictured it: one dashboard across the full parcel journey, carriers and regions added without a build or a binding contract, and the MI reporting your board asks for.
Built for SMEs
No volume means no leverage on rates, and most contracts want a commitment you can't make yet. Compare Royal Mail, Evri and DPD side by side with no minimum and no lock-in, and batch the whole day's labels in one run.

Every UK carrier and the platforms that feed them, wired into one account.
How businesses like yours ship with ITD.
Yes. Routing reads the destination postcode and picks a carrier that covers it, including the Highlands and Islands, the Channel Islands, Northern Ireland and BFPO. The area surcharge is priced in before you ship, so you see the real cost up front, not on the invoice weeks later.
Royal Mail, DPD, Evri, InPost, DX, Parcelforce and Amazon Shipping, with more added over time. They all run from one account, so you can compare services and switch carrier per order without opening another portal.
Yes. Bring your own negotiated rates and run them alongside ITD's, or ship entirely on ITD's. The routing compares both and picks the best-value service for the parcel.
They're built into the rate at the point of routing. The system knows the Highlands and Islands surcharge, the Channel Islands fuel adjustment, the Northern Ireland fee and residential levies, so the price you see is the price you pay.
Yes. Next-day, timed and Saturday services are available across the carriers that run them, and routing can prioritise speed or price on each order to match the promise you've made the customer.
Most businesses are live within a few days. The store and ERP integrations are ready-built, so you connect your accounts and routing rules rather than waiting on a development project. 3PLs can onboard a new brand in about two days.
The Parcel Rate Checker compares live carriers on the postcodes you ship from and shows you where the margin's leaking. Put your current dims, weight and rate in and the gaps show up straight away.
