Zippykind provides powerful and easy to use delivery management software for your local delivery business.

To automatically send your orders to Zippykind, we recommend connecting your Zippykind account to Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery.


Requirements

  • You must have an active Zippykind account and an API key.

    • In order to get an API key, you must sign up for an account by going to https://zippykind.com. Once you have created an account, you will need to click on the API Key menu item and from there you will be able to generate an API key.

  • You must have our delivery date and time picker enabled.

    • Enable this in Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery > Settings > Local Delivery.


Activate Zippykind

  1. Within Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery, open Settings and click Fleet management.

  2. Click Activate Zippykind.

  3. Enter your Zippykind API key and click Activate Zippykind.

    Zippykind has now been activated—to finish setting up, you need to configure your settings.


Configure your settings

  1. Add a support email address. It will be used to notify you if there is an error when scheduling an order.

  2. Select the locations Zippykind should handle deliveries for. Not all locations need to be selected if you're using more than one delivery service.

  3. For all ticked locations, you need to add a contact name and a valid contact phone number.

  4. You can choose to add tracking details to each order. With this setting enabled, your orders will automatically be fulfilled within Shopify.

  5. Click Save.


Disable Zippykind

If you would like to stop using Zippykind, you can disable it.

  1. Within Zapiet - Pickup + Delivery, open Settings and click Fleet management.

  2. Find Zippykind and click Configure settings.

  3. Scroll down and click Disable Zippykind.


Troubleshooting

  • Ensure you are using the correct API key.
