Introduction

Atlas Pickup Points is a Shopify app that extends your checkout by letting your customers select delivery to pickup points such as parcel lockers (APMs) or collection points like stores, post offices, etc. (PUDOs).

Atlas supports multiple carriers such as DHL, DPD, InPost, Chronopost, Colissimo, Mondial Relay, Packeta, Posti, PostNord, and more. We keep adding more per merchant requests. You can also use your custom pickup points.

Prerequisites

• Your store needs to be on the Shopify Plus plan
• You need to be on the new checkout, which supports Checkout Extensibility

How does it work?

Atlas shows pickup points selection next to other shipping methods. First, you need to create a regular shipping rate such as DPD Pickup, and then, within Atlas, you need to connect it to the DPD pickup points in the selected country.

Atlas is also capable of showing pickup point selection post order, on the Thank you page. This is useful when you are offering express checkout such as Apple Pay, as it doesn’t support checkout extensibility.

What after the order is placed?

Atlas saves selected pickup point, natively to the Shopify order. By default, it saves it to the metafield, but to make integrations with third parties easier, you can enable saving pickup point to the order attributes. Atlas is also capable of changing the shipping address to the pickup point address if that’s something you need in your workflow.

From there you need to utilize your existing tools to generate shipping labels. We gathered all the apps that can read selected pickup points from the Order in the Integrations section. If your current app doesn’t support it, you can let them know by sending our Integration guide.
