HubBox launches Shopify Click and Collect solution

HubBox has built a Click and Collect plug-in for the Shopify e-commerce platform.

Through the latter’s app store, retailers can integrate the plug-in into their checkout, giving them and their customers access to over 3,000 collect points across the UK. HubBox currently supports the solution for over 30 partner retailers on Shopify, including Maniere De Voir, Yoga Rebel and Lazy Oaf.

“Until now, the cost of development and the fact that most Click and Collect services are tied to specific couriers has inhibited widespread uptake,” says Sam Jarvis, CEO and Founder, HubBox. “With the release of this plug-in, implementing Click and Collect requires literally no changes to fulfilment and has a timeframe which you can measure in minutes, not weeks.”

He adds that this is a low flat monthly fee and per parcel cost model, so there is little risk to retailers who do smaller order volumes. In addition to the software, retailers are also able to access technical support. All parcel management and customer service queries are handled by HubBox’s London-based team. Marcus Fountaine, Founding Director at Fairfax & Favor, says: “Hubbox has been the most effortless e-commerce success to date. It easily plugs in to our Shopify website to offer our customers a Click and Collect option that is both affordable and hassle free for us, what a win-win.”
