Add FedEx shipping account
A shipping account is a specific account set up with a shipping carrier or logistics provider that enables businesses to manage shipping activities.
In SAPIENT, you can create a FedEx shipping account by selecting your desired shipping location, entering the corresponding account and carrier details, and then adding the account to the system.
ImportantBefore setting up the shipping account, make sure:
- You have enabled the integration with FedEx and have already created a shipping location.
- You have the 9-digit FedEx carrier account number.
- You have the exact shipping address that you have provided to FedEx, as this information is validated via the Address Validation API. If the address does not match, then a corresponding error message is displayed—and you will not proceed to the Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) stage of the Add Shipping Account form.
The multi-factor authentication is a crucial stage of the FedEx shipping account creation process, and this authentication must be completed by the FedEx account holder. This is done so that the account is validated in a secure manner and then can be used for shipping via our API.
