API Integration for Multi-Shipping Management System
SmartConsign shipping software is a platform the allows clients (Operaters) to connect their customers (Shippers) with Carriers (Yodel, DX, DHL, etc).
The connectors developed by Impact talk to a variety of ecommerce stores so that orders can be shipped using SmartConsign. The integration provides the booking of the shipping agent, publishing of tracking informtion back to the store, the ability to download shipping labels or have shipping labels sent back to the store. The system can also handle cancellations. Due to the level of integrations the customer can pick from a variety of couriers and services, to match delivery expectations.
The connectors are called via a webhook to collect the order and then post it to SmartConsign, with a scheduled job running the connector every 5 minutes to mop up any orders that might be missed by the webhook from ecommerce stores, due to traffic, internet issues, etc.
Technology Stack:
- ASP.NET Core 3.1 / .NET 5
- C#
- REST API – HttpClient
- SQL
Deployment is fully automated through Azure DevOps Pipelines, going via respositories and onto AWS services.
Currently SmartConsign has 25+ carriers and API developments to Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento 2 and BigCommerce, with new connectors being developed by Impact all the time.

Prototype software development for a queue management system.
We have recently used Impact Technology to develop a bespoke software programme from scratch and found them to be incredibly accommodating and they had a real grasp of what we were attempting to achieve. From enquiry right through to post-completion we found Impact Technology were always willing to assist and clearly valued customer satisfaction and the end-product was exactly what we were looking to achieve. I would highly recommend their services accordingly.
