Evaluating Shiprocket vs. Delhivery Direct
Shiprocket resells courier services under master contracts, making it easy for beginners but expensive at scale due to freight markups. Direct Delhivery accounts give merchants cheaper per-kg rates and dedicated SLA account support.
PointNXT connects directly with your own negotiated Delhivery, Bluedart, and Xpressbees accounts, giving you direct carrier rates with automated rate shopping and zero aggregator markup.
