GLS (myGLS) for Shopify: connecting via myGLS API, label printing, dispensaries, and EU delivery

Looking for reliable Shopify GLS integration oneself placards, delivery points/boxes (GLS ParcelShop/Parcel Box), cash on delivery (COD) and by delivery to address and across the EU? Connecting GLS to Shopify via Shipdock covers the entire process: from rates in the cart, through the selection of the dispensing point and automatic label printing, up to trackers and customer notifications.

Why connect GLS to Shopify

• Selecting a dispensing/box directly at purchase — higher conversions and fewer undelivered shipments.
• Delivery to the address and to the OOH network (Parcelshop/box) — flexibility for customers.
• Cash on delivery (COD) — cash and non-cash support according to GLS possibilities in the given country.
• Automation — no manual overwriting: labels, tracking, order statuses, notifications.
• Expansion to the EU — same workflow for domestic and international shipments.

What Shopify + GLS can do via Shipdock

• Printing GLS Labels directly in your Shopify admin — individually and bulk.
• Widget of dispensary/boxes -- v Checkout (Shopify Plus), or after buying at Thank you /Order status page for all plans; we store the selected point in Attributes de la carte.
• Automatic synchronization ---- tracking number to Fulfilling, continuous notifications (Email/SMS).
• Cash on delivery (COD) — indication of the cash on delivery, surcharge, own payment method.
• EU worry-free delivery — delivery to the address and to dispensary/boxes in the European GLS network.

How the Shopify Shipping API connection works

• Rules and Fallbacks — weight/size limits, zones, safe mode during API outages.
• Fulfillment & Labels — after payment we generate consignment and label, we will add trackers and we run notifications.
