According to The Wall Street Journal, Adobe is integrating FedEx’s recently acquired ShopRunner ecommerce service, which provides expedited delivery from more than 100 merchants, with the software provider’s digital commerce platform. The agreement will help businesses that sell on Adobe’s platform offer free two-day shipping and other services, such as easy returns.
The partnership could also funnel more parcels through the delivery giant’s network. Adobe sellers who use FedEx as a carrier would get access to data to help with logistics planning, such as prioritising which orders to fulfil first for faster delivery. Adobe sellers should be able to download the FedEx extension in late 2021, the companies said.
Teaming up with FedEx will help Adobe compete with rivals – such as ecommerce technology provider Shopify – as they increase merchant services, The Wall Street Journal reports.
