The self sign-up portal makes it possible for online businesses to register and start shipping orders instantly. It also leverages the latest banking and identity verification APIs to reduce manual back-end processes and paperwork.

"India has approximately 6.3 crore small and medium businesses and with the pandemic, the numbers of businesses are increasing every day. Logistics plays a significant role in the growth of these businesses, and we wanted to offer both our digital and logistics capabilities to support them. With ‘E-zippie’, we can fast-track registration to less than 30 minutes against a 10 to 12 days process taken by most players in the market," Ecom Express CEO TA Krishnan said.

"The self sign-up portal is a major milestone in our effort to provide an automated and seamless experience for online businesses right from onboarding to fulfilling all their shipping requirements. We will continue to enhance customer experience by making logistics simpler and convenient for small and micro businesses, by providing direct control on their shipments and flexibility in managing end-to-end shipment life cycle. Our aim is to help them expand their market access to 27000+ PIN codes, diversify their customer base, and solidify their supply chain through Ecom Express," Krishnan added.

Ecom Express claims that the portal is mobile responsive through which sellers can submit requests at their convenience and which is then funneled directly to the right department that handles the request without any manual intervention or re-keying of information.

Once the seller is onboarded, they will get direct control over their shipments to manage distribution through a dedicated state-of-the-art dashboard and customer support to get real-time status and closure on their shipments.

The Gurugram-based logistics solutions provider for the e-commerce industry estimates that the portal will enhance around 100 percent more sign-ups from online sellers and businesses.
