Paypal Canada and Canada Post have joined forces to create a payment and shipping platform that is designed to make it a whole lot easier for startups, small business and part-time entrepreneurs to make use of consolidated payment and shipping services.
Aptly dubbed 'Paypal and Canada Post Solutions for Small Business', this payment and shipping platform allows sellers to simply use their PayPal accounts to keep track of orders, create shipping labels and even pay for shipping. What's more, users won't have to personally drop off parcels, and can instead make use of Canada Post's infrastructure to schedule package pick-ups.
While payment processing and shipping is a piece of cake for large companies, it can be a time-consuming and error-prone process for small business ventures. By bringing payment and shipping under a single umbrella, this new platform will help inexperienced entrepreneurs as well as brick-and-mortal small businesses to take advantage of modernized order fulfillment processes.
