Chronopost Shop2Shop
Service Presentation
Shop2Shop is the latest delivery service from French express delivery leader, Chronopost. This latest delivery innovation specifically targets today's eco-conscious consumer by offering unbeatably flexible delivery from parcel shop (point relais) to parcel shop.
Shop2Shop offers a more environmentally friendly solution for e-commerce retailers. The first and last mile kilometers are covered by alternative vehicles in Paris and up to 42 cities in France to limit noise pollution and CO2 emissions.
How does it work?
You select a convenient dropoff location, and your customer chooses where they want their parcel to be delivered. The customer receives an email notification when the delivery occurs, and collects the parcel at the most convenient time.
Important: If you are using the Chronopost 2Shop service, it is essential to create a rule in Sendcloud to correctly link the method "Livraison en point relais Chronopost" to Shop2Shop, and not to Chrono Relais. This prevents any confusion during service selection at checkout and ensures your deliveries run smoothly.
Delivery takes place from Monday to Saturday to one of over 10,000 pickup locations (relais points) in Metropolitan France within 2 to 4 days. Around 99% of pickup locations are open on Saturdays, 43% are open on Sundays and 30% are open after 8 pm.
Tip: When you select a Chronopost Service Point shipping method, Chrono Relais Europe will be the default shipping method available. If you wish to use Chrono Shop2Shop instead, you can make a shipping rule for this:
-
Create a shipping rule to use Shop2Shop when a Chronopost service point shipping method is selected at checkout
Alternatively, contact us by creating a support ticket from your Sendcloud account to have Chrono Relais Europe deactivated as an available shipping method. You will then default to Chrono Shop2Shop as your preferred service point delivery method.
Ship without printing the label
The entire journey of the parcel is controlled and viewed online. With Shop2Shop, it's not necessary to print the shipping label from your Sendcloud account.
A Chrono Shop2Shop QR code will be sent automatically via email. Simply present the QR code on your mobile phone at a dropoff location when you go to hand over your parcels.
