Ship at your own rates, not aggregator margins
Shiprocket is fine when you're small and don't have direct courier accounts. Once you can negotiate with Delhivery, DTDC, or Blue Dart directly — you're leaving money on the table on every shipment. OrderLyne lets you plug in your own accounts.
- Use your OWN Delhivery, DTDC, Blue Dart, XPressBees, Ekart accounts
- Your own negotiated rates, your own remittance — no aggregator middle-man
- Plus WhatsApp automation + storefront + GSTR1 in one platform
- Keep Shiprocket as a fallback if you want — it's supported too
Free plan available · No credit card required · Works with existing Shiprocket data

Keep Shiprocket if you want — OrderLyne supports it alongside direct couriers. But plugging in your own Delhivery/DTDC/Blue Dart accounts usually saves ₹15-25 per shipment, which adds up fast.

Questions
About switching from Shiprocket
If your volume is under 100 shipments/month, probably not — getting direct accounts needs negotiation leverage. OrderLyne still gives you WhatsApp + store + analytics, and you can keep Shiprocket for shipping. Once you hit 300-500 orders/month, it's worth getting direct accounts — we help with introductions.
Yes. Many merchants use direct accounts for their top cities and Shiprocket as a fallback for tier-3 pincodes. OrderLyne supports both in the same dashboard.
With direct courier accounts, you get COD remittance directly from the courier to your bank account — typically 5-7 days. With Shiprocket, remittance goes through them first, adding a few days plus their platform cycle.
Yes, with a rules engine that's arguably more flexible. Define rules like 'if NDR on COD order → WhatsApp customer for address confirmation → auto-reattempt once → else RTO'. Works across couriers.
Most of the 'perks' on Shiprocket are their own marketing. With direct accounts, you negotiate once with the courier and have permanent better rates — no cashback schemes needed.
Usually 2-3 weeks. Each has a KYC + volume commitment process. We can introduce you to the right contact at each one — some of our merchants get accounts in under a week.
