Shipit is a logistics service that enables you to ship your customers' orders by using the services of the most popular Finnish logistics companies. Additionally, the service includes numerous international delivery services.
Creating shipping labels with the Shipit extension requires that you have credit in your Shipit wallet.
Collection points aren't supported when using PostNord via Shipit. Support is going to be added in the near future.
The default order weight in shipping methods that use Shipit is 100g. The default weight is used if the order does not have a weight of its own.
