Add Local Delivery to Your Shopify Store

UniHop helps Shopify merchants offer same-day and scheduled local delivery without hiring drivers, building routes, or turning delivery into another manual workflow for your team.

Overview

Shopify Orders, Delivered by UniHop

Shopify stays your storefront, checkout, payment system, and order source of truth. UniHop handles the last-mile delivery once an order is ready to go out. Depending on your workflow, you can start manually in the UniHop portal, connect through Zapiet, use Shopify Flow, or build a more custom automation with help from our team.

Shopify Integration Paths

If you want customers to choose delivery dates, times, or local delivery zones at checkout, start with the Zapiet + UniHop guide.

If your team needs order rules, tags, fulfillment status, or other Shopify events to trigger delivery workflow steps, see Shopify Flow + UniHop.

If you manage larger food or catering operations, including eCater-connected workflows, see Cartwheel + UniHop.

Setup

Common Shopify Setup Options

1

Start Manually

If you are testing local delivery or handling lower order volume, your team can create delivery requests in the UniHop portal when an order is packed and ready for pickup. It is the quickest way to start.

2

Use Zapiet for Checkout Scheduling

Zapiet Pickup + Delivery can help Shopify customers choose delivery dates, times, and delivery zones at checkout, then send eligible orders to UniHop automatically.

3

Automate With Shopify Flow or a Custom Workflow

For higher-volume stores, UniHop can help set up an automated workflow that sends the right orders to UniHop based on order status, delivery area, products, timing, or other business rules.

4

Get Help Choosing the Right Path

Our team can review your Shopify setup, delivery goals, and current fulfillment process, then recommend the simplest path that gives your team the control and customer experience you need.

Use Cases

Where Shopify + UniHop Fits

Local Retail and DTC Brands

Offer local delivery from your Shopify store without building an internal driver operation or sending customers to a third-party marketplace.

Florists, Gift Shops, and Specialty Retail

Keep time-sensitive local orders moving with delivery tracking, SMS status updates, and support from the UniHop dispatch team.

Food, Beverage, and Meal Prep

Route same-day or scheduled local delivery orders to UniHop when they are ready, reducing copy-paste work during busy fulfillment windows.

Furniture and Large Item Retailers

Coordinate larger deliveries with the right vehicle and handling plan instead of forcing every Shopify order into the same delivery process.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

UniHop works with Shopify through tools like Zapiet, Shopify Flow, manual portal entry, and custom workflows. We do not currently have a standalone UniHop Shopify app, but our team can help you choose and configure the best setup for your store.
Not always. Many stores can start manually or use Zapiet with help from UniHop support. More advanced checkout logic, multiple delivery styles, live price quotes, or custom automation may require technical setup, and our team can help scope that.
Yes, if your Shopify setup includes a scheduling tool such as Zapiet. That can let customers choose delivery windows while eligible orders are sent to UniHop for fulfillment after checkout.
Zapiet's default UniHop setup is usually best for Standard delivery. UniHop can customize other delivery styles, or multiple delivery options, depending on your Shopify plan, checkout setup, and operational needs.
In many cases, advanced checkout options require Shopify Grow or higher. Tell us what you want customers to see at checkout, and we can recommend whether Zapiet, Shopify Flow, or a custom setup is the right fit.
Once a delivery is created in UniHop, it is tracked like other UniHop deliveries. Customers can receive SMS status updates, your team can check delivery history in the UniHop portal, and the dispatch team can help monitor the order from pickup to drop-off.
Manual entry is often best for testing or lower volume. Zapiet is a good fit when you want delivery scheduling and zone rules at checkout. Shopify Flow or a custom workflow can make more sense when order volume or routing rules become more complex.
