How to Ship Products for Your Online Store in India
Site9 Team
Getting products to customers reliably is the backbone of any online store. Here's a simple guide to shipping in India for a small business.
Choose how you'll ship
You can use courier services, a shipping aggregator that compares couriers, or local delivery for nearby orders. Start simple and scale as orders grow.
Price shipping clearly
- Charge a flat rate, free shipping above a threshold, or actual cost.
- Show charges before checkout to avoid abandoned carts.
Pack well
Protect your products with proper packaging. A damaged delivery costs you a refund and a customer.
Keep customers informed
Share tracking and expected delivery dates. Clear communication turns a nervous first-time buyer into a repeat customer.
