Nova Poshta
Nova Poshta is the most popular delivery service in Ukraine, in particular due to the tools for developers and comfortable conditions for online shoppers and more.
The Nova Poshta API will give you the opportunity to place on your website the functionality that is almost identical to that available in the delivery service applications. In particular, you can add the choice of a branch, tracking, cost calculation taking into account various services, alerts, and integration with your CMS and/or accounting system for order processing.
The New Mail API key is free, but it is issued for a certain period of time after registration on the website. It is also needed to get access to services and products for integration.
On the Nova Poshta website, developers can find ready-made and customizable plugins for online stores. There is a tracking widget that allows customers to track the path of their order in their personal account on your website. The Nova Poshta API key for calculating the cost of delivery to different branches and a convenient widget for posting information about the terms of service.
Nova Poshta's APIs will help you better manage parcels that have already been shipped. In particular, your operators will be able to use the “Return of parcel” from the administrative panel of the site if the customer has not picked up the parcel. There, you can also quickly and easily issue a forwarding or change the data in the express waybill, such as the recipient's or sender's data and payment method.
With the Nova Poshta interfaces, you can add a database with directories of Ukrainian cities and company branches to your website, as well as tools for quick searching.

Separately, you can better organize the work with express waybills and their registers, as well as attach reference books with information about the company's services, from delivery times to types of packaging. Nova Poshta's API will allow you to create waybills in your personal account. The default data will be automatically pulled up, but you can change the weight, size, and number of places, as well as the published cost. The type of waybill will also change depending on whether the customer has paid for the delivery in advance (if it is not free) or will do so after receiving it, with a separate cash on delivery amount. Next, you can print the waybill directly from your account, including bulk printing on various media.
For some projects, working with Nova Poshta's api takes a matter of minutes. For example, the delivery service, in cooperation with 1C, has released and maintains a ready-made integration module. Similar proprietary solutions are available for some popular CMSs, such as the Nova Poshta Opencart API, and digital agencies and web studios have their own custom modules to effectively solve integration problems with different systems. Integration through the API can be much deeper, for example, you can connect Nova Poshta services with CMS, CRM and accounting systems at the same time and even transfer data to analytics programs.
Nova Poshta is a mandatory integration for all stores in Ukraine. Even if you sell bulky and non-standard goods that are more profitable and convenient to deliver with Ukrposhta or another transportation company, you shouldn't deprive your customers of the choice and familiar service. Moreover, cooperation with it is free, and integration will help improve and speed up order processing.
