What is the Salesforce + ShipperHQ integration

Do your shipping quotes change depending on cart contents, delivery address, and cut-off times, yet your Salesforce checkout still has to live with flat rates or patchy rules? That gap shows up fast as abandoned carts, support tickets about “wrong shipping,” and hours spent keeping carrier logic consistent across teams. The Salesforce – ShipperHQ integration connects your storefront checkout to ShipperHQ’s rating and delivery rules so live shipping options are returned in real time, using the same logic across carriers, methods, and conditions. It turns shipping from a static configuration in Salesforce into a centrally managed quoting flow that your ecommerce operations team can adjust without reworking the entire checkout. This setup fits if you sell products with shipping constraints, multiple carriers, or complex delivery promises that need accurate rates at checkout.

Salesforce + ShipperHQ integration benefits

Cut cart drop-offs with accurate shipping quotes in Salesforce checkout
Reduce “wrong shipping” tickets with consistent ShipperHQ rules
Protect margin by applying surcharges and constraints per cart
Offer clearer delivery promises with method-level ETA estimates
Speed up checkout decisions with fewer shipping choices shown
Lower ops workload by updating shipping rules without dev cycles

How the Salesforce ShipperHQ integration works technically

• Checkout requests from Salesforce send cart line items, quantities, destination, and selected customer context to ShipperHQ for rating. 

• Identifiers such as SKU, product type, and shipping group are mapped so ShipperHQ rules apply consistently to Salesforce product data. 

• ShipperHQ returns available methods with costs, carrier codes, and delivery estimates, which are mapped back to Salesforce shipping method selections. 

• Address validation and residential or commercial flags are passed through when available and used as inputs for rate logic. 

• Error states and timeouts fall back to predefined handling rules, with responses logged for troubleshooting and audit trails. 

• Order confirmations store the selected shipping option details so downstream fulfillment and customer communications reference the same quote.
