Auctane Acquire European Shipping Platform Packlink

News is out that sees Auctane acquire Packlink, a name eBay sellers will instantly recognise as the solution powering eBay shipping. If you print out a label through eBay then you’ve used Packlink!

Auctane is a leader in shipping and fulfillment software, which operates trusted brands like ShipStation, Stamps.com, ShipEngine, MetaPack, and Endicia and now the addition of Packlink, a European shipping platform, to their portfolio of merchant solutions. With the acquisition, Packlink joins a suite of solutions tailored to provide shipping and fulfillment services to enterprises of every size.

“We welcome Packlink employees, customers, and partners into the Auctane family. We’ve been following their growth and success for years and after our first conversation with the Packlink executive team, we knew we were perfectly aligned on the mission to help every merchant around the world be exceptionally efficient at fulfilling customer orders.”
– Nathan Jones, CEO, Auctane

With Packlink, Auctane is able to further serve the needs of European businesses. The accelerated growth of e-commerce over the last two years has created the need for online sellers to rapidly scale and optimize their delivery processes. Collectively, Auctane and Packlink’s web-based shipping solutions are uniquely positioned to help businesses streamline their fulfillment operations, save money on shipping, and delight customers with fast and predictable delivery experiences.

“We are thrilled to join Auctane. As a world leader in providing great delivery experiences, Auctane shares our vision of facilitating online shipping around the world. Together, we offer extraordinary global delivery capabilities to e-commerce partners and businesses who rely on us to power their businesses.”
– Ben Askew-Renaut, Co-Founder and CEO, Packlink

We’re looking forward to welcoming Andrew Norman, Managing Director at ShipStation International and part of the Auctane family to Tamebay live in January after the Christmas Break, when he’ll be looking back at Peak 2021 with lessons that can be learned for the year ahead.
