eBay and FedEx have today announced that Canadian sellers will be able to access FedEx shipping services directly through eBay Labels, a proprietary label printing solution.
The integration of FedEx technology gives eBay sellers a seamless, on-platform experience to access FedEx domestic and international shipping tools and services – all at preferential rates.
FedEx enjoys a strong alliance with eBay, FedEx and eBay share a commitment to helping our Canadian customers—including thousands of small and medium businesses—expand through innovation, growth, and e-commerce. We are excited to see how these enhancements improve our customers’ fulfillment needs so they can continue to drive their business forward.
– Lisa Lisson, President of FedEx Express Canada
This Canadian technology enhancement builds on the long-standing relationship between the two companies in countries around the world and empowers eBay sellers to harness the unprecedented demand in e-commerce. Pre-CO VID, FedEx projected the U.S. domestic market would hit 100 million packages per day by 2026, with 96 per cent of volume coming from e-commerce. This projection is now expected to be hit in 2022, with a similar trend anticipated for the Canadian market.
Providing an exceptional selling experience to the hundreds of thousands of Canadians that leverage our global marketplace remains a top priority for eBay, and FedEx is key in delivering on this experience. With this extended FedEx alliance, we’re making shipping even easier and more cost-effective for our eBay sellers, which in turn allows them to bring the best value and service to our marketplace.
– Robert Bigler, General Manager, eBay Canada
