Overview

Business requirements mandate proof of delivery documents (i.e. certified signature documents with a delivery timestamp). These documents are required for payment from marketplaces and need in support against fraudulent chargebacks (refer to business cases below).
Proof of delivery documents are not easy to obtain. Any veteran knows that the workflow related to retrieving these documents is tedious, boring and requires a login for the carrier website, which isn’t always available to the person tasked to do the work. Painful.
Smart shippers take the time to document and teach the workflow required for each carrier website to support personnel, even going as far as to document the entire process and manage the process with people. Nice. But even then the workflow is terrible, as the carrier websites take eons to cough out the requested documents, break frequently and require an awkward, manual process.
There’s a better way. Share A Refund automates the entire process.

How it works

Share A Refund takes the sluggishness out of the proof of delivery retrieval workflows.

Proof of delivery documents are extracted, transformed, and loaded into a single data store for all carriers. Any proof of delivery document is searchable by tracking number, account number, invoice number, etc. within a customer’s Share A Refund account. Documents are also visible within the Shipment Detail View for any given shipment. Simple, fast and easy.

The documents are available in bulk download within the Report Dashboard, making it easy to put these documents into your business practice in just a few clicks.
Want the documents in an ftp dropbox or s3 bucket? High-volume shippers fetch these files from local systems via secure protocols (e.g. sftp, etc.).

High-volume shippers

Embedded pod documents within existing applications and services sow magic into existing business workflows, and eliminate the information gaps prevalent in common workflows for most high volume shippers. Documents can be fetch through api request or made available within secure file stores.

Unchanged templates

Each carrier has a specific file type for proof of delivery. This includes a timestamp, name of person that signed for the shipment and signature of that person. These documents are not changed or modified in any way by Share A Refund. The documents are simply scaled, tagged and renamed, as to be more searchable and more readily available at the time when you need them.
