Order Creation

Create order object in Glopal's shipping solution at order confirmation

Pre-Integrated Platforms

Glopal's cross-border shipping solution is pre-integrated into Glopal’s Checkout solution, and available for the most relevant e-commerce platforms:

• Shopify: Partner app for Shopify and Shopify Plus.

• Magento 2: Plugin

• Salesforce Cloud Commerce: B2C Commerce Cartridge listed on the Salesforce AppExchange, supporting SFRA, OpenCommerce API (OCAPI), and Site Genesis

Native API Integration

Alternatively, create an order object in Glopal's shipping system via API in one of two ways:

Option 1: Create order from scratch

Pass all relevant order information in one single request.
