We follow package deliveries in real time to create a seamless, transparent and branded delivery experience. With Shipup, online retailers can send notifications to their clients, redirect them to branded tracking pages and proactively manage potential delivery incidents. We help the best brands offer a delivery experience so compelling that their customers will want to purchase again.

Shipup was founded in 2016 and raised more than €7M million from Elaia, BPI, Kima Parntners and leading angel investors in e-commerce.

Le Petit Ballon, Birchbox and Go Sport were among our first customers and we now serve more than 250 fast growing online retailers. Our customers are getting bigger (we recently on-boarded Leclerc and Carrefour) and are located all around the world (~40% are outside of France).

As a team, we foster initiative and ownership. We believe great teamwork is achieved by a transparent culture where information flows seamlessly at all levels of the company. We work in a multicultural environment with many nationalities represented. Shipup is growing fast and we're looking for talended individuals to join the journey !
