Introduction

Offering pickup point delivery has traditionally meant installing a separate script, widget, or app from each carrier. Each one was difficult to integrate, the experience was inconsistent between carriers, the UI never matched your checkout branding, and none were optimized for mobile.

Atlas Pickup Points replaces all of that with a fast, customizable pickup point selection built directly into Shopify Checkout. The interface is mobile-first: buyers can select the nearest pickup point with a single tap, without even opening the map. Powered by Google Maps. Pickup points load with a median response time of 150 ms, so buyers never wait.

The pickup point selection is translated to 24 languages and automatically matches the language of the Shopify Checkout, making it easy to expand internationally. One app, 60+ carriers, 36+ countries. You go live in minutes, not weeks.

Supported carriers include DHL, DPD, UPS, GLS, Mondial Relay, InPost, Chronopost, Colissimo, Packeta, and many more. Additional carriers are added based on merchant needs. You can also connect your own pickup point data source using a custom endpoint.

#Prerequisites

Which surface you can use depends on your Atlas plan, and each plan has a Shopify plan requirement. See Pricing for the full plan comparison.

To show pickup points during checkout:

  • The Pro (or Enterprise) Atlas plan, which requires Shopify Plus

To show pickup points on the Thank you page:

  • The Lite Atlas plan, available on any Shopify plan

#How it works

Atlas attaches pickup point selection to your existing shipping options. To set up:

  1. Add a shipping option in Shopify Admin β†’ Settings β†’ Shipping and delivery (e.g. β€œDPD Pickup”)
  2. In Shopify Admin β†’ Atlas Pickup Points, create a pickup point configuration and select carrier and country
  3. Enter your shipping option names

#After order placement

The selected pickup point is automatically saved to the order metafield. You can also pass pickup point data through order custom attributes, shipping address updates, or custom metafields. See How to get pickup point data into my fulfillment software for details.

Use your usual shipping tools to generate labels. See our Integrations page for compatible apps, or share our integration guide with your provider.

#Supported languages

The pickup point selection is available in 24 languages: Bulgarian, Catalan, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, and Swedish.
