A Delivery Link is a distinctive identifier used to send a package, providing a unique and secure method to dispatch items. This link is shareable and simplifies the entire package delivery process.
In terms of usage, there are two key scenarios for employing a Delivery Link:
1. Self-Paid Delivery:
If the delivery cost setting is configured to “self,” the responsibility for payment falls on you, the owner of the delivery link. In this case, you will be the one to choose a carrier of your choice and bear the delivery costs.
2. Sender-Paid Delivery:
Alternatively, when the delivery cost setting is specified as “sender,” the sender who utilizes your Delivery Link will cover the delivery fees. The sender, in this context, takes charge of selecting a carrier and making the necessary payments.
