Set up delivery options

Configure delivery coverage, costs and estimated times for your products.

Seller AcademyUpdated 27 July 2026

A delivery profile controls reusable delivery coverage, methods and prices. Product-level fulfilment settings then decide which products use that profile.

Create a reliable delivery profile

  • Use the real dispatch address for the products covered by the profile.
  • Choose only countries, regions or local areas you can reliably serve.
  • Add the seller, courier or supported delivery methods actually available.
  • Keep local, national and international coverage separate where their costs differ.

Show complete prices and timing

  • Include the genuine courier, fuel, packaging and handling cost.
  • Set realistic preparation and delivery estimates.
  • Use product adjustments only when an individual item genuinely costs more or less to deliver.
  • Avoid hidden charges after checkout.

Fulfil the method selected at checkout

  • Confirm the exact product, quantity and delivery choice on the order.
  • Record dispatch only after the parcel is handed to the delivery provider.
  • Add valid tracking or delivery evidence where requested.
  • Keep delivery changes and buyer communication inside Upfrica.

Keep Click & Collect separate

  • Delivery profiles do not enable seller pickup.
  • Create and verify a pickup location in Buyer pickup settings.
  • Enable Click & Collect separately on each suitable product.
  • A pickup order uses a collection lifecycle and must not be marked dispatched.
Important

An Upfrica-assisted delivery option appears only for eligible orders and locations. Do not promise that Upfrica will manage delivery when the option is not shown.
