THE SHIFT

Merchant banking is moving beyond payments.

SMEs expect operational tools inside their financial platform.

Payments, invoicing, logistics — your business customers increasingly want them where they already manage money.

Merchant platforms are expanding embedded business operations.

The companies that win SME loyalty are the ones that simplify daily operations, not just transactions.

Banks and PSPs need new non-interest income streams.

Logistics is the largest unmonetised operational layer in SME banking. Shipit24 lets you monetise it.

THE PROBLEM

Fragmented logistics is a revenue leak for banks — and an operational tax on SMEs.

For banks

  • remove Merchant logistics spend remains largely unmonetised
  • remove Carrier-by-carrier integrations slow platform innovation
  • remove Repeated outsourcing and compliance reviews across providers

For merchants

  • remove Significant time spent managing shipping workflows
  • remove Manual rate comparison drives margin leakage
  • remove Multiple logins, multiple contracts, multiple invoices

Result

  • trending_down Higher SME churn
  • trending_down Missed fee-income opportunities
  • trending_down Weaker daily engagement with the bank
REVENUE MODEL

Three ways embedded logistics generates institutional revenue.

Most institutions start with transaction revenue and expand into data and financing over time. The typical path: Transaction → Data → Financing.

1

Transaction revenue

Per-parcel fee share

On every shipment your merchants generate through Shipit24, your institution earns a transparent per-parcel fee share. The foundation — and the first revenue source, live within ~90 days.

2

Merchant intelligence

Operational and performance data

Structured logistics data feeds your SME portfolio analytics, customer segmentation and engagement metrics — shipping volume, geography, returns ratio and seasonality across your merchant base.

3

Logistics-informed financing

Underwriting signals from shipping activity

Shipping data surfaces business health months before it shows up in financial statements — direct inputs to credit decisioning, limit increases and risk monitoring.

ECONOMICS

How embedded logistics scales as a revenue line.

The average SME ships approximately 500 parcels per year. With Shipit24's embedded fee model, that translates to consistent non-interest income that scales with your merchant base.

This is non-interest, non-transaction income that compounds with merchant retention. Once a merchant integrates Shipit24 through your platform, switching costs accumulate at every shipment.

Merchant baseParcels / yearBank fee income (annual)
10,000 SMEs5M parcels~€800K
50,000 SMEs25M parcels~€4M

Example projections. Actual revenue depends on merchant adoption rate, parcel mix and commercial terms.

UK ALIGNMENT

Built to support FCA Consumer Duty outcomes for SME customers.

UK financial institutions must demonstrate that their SME customers receive fair value, transparency and operational outcomes aligned with Consumer Duty expectations. Shipit24 directly supports this:

  • check_circleSMEs face fragmented logistics workflows that limit price transparency and operational efficiency.
  • check_circleEmbedding Shipit24 lets merchants compare delivery options, automate workflows and reduce operational friction.
  • check_circleThis supports demonstrable fair value, transparency and operational efficiency outcomes for SME customers.
Shipit24 helps institutions align SME platform innovation with Consumer Duty principles — while unlocking new non-interest income.
THE STAKES

Control of logistics increasingly decides who becomes the merchant's primary platform.

  • bolt Marketplaces bundle logistics as a default capability
  • bolt Challenger banks are expanding SME "Business OS" features
  • bolt Institutions limited to payments risk becoming commodity providers

The institutions that own logistics orchestration capture deeper merchant engagement, stronger retention and a larger share of operational spend.

WHERE THIS GOES

Payments · Lending · Operations · Analytics.

Merchants consolidate around platforms that simplify daily operations. Institutions that add utilities like logistics, invoicing and working capital capture deeper engagement, retention and wallet share.

The institutions that win the next decade of SME banking will own all four layers — not just payments.

WHY THIS MATTERS

A recipient network your merchants inherit on day one.

Shipit24 isn't just shipping infrastructure. It's a network of 100,000+ recipients across the Baltics and EU who have set their preferred parcel lockers across our carrier system. When a merchant on your platform ships to a returning customer, the system already knows where they want it.

groups

100,000+ recipients with set delivery preferences

swap_horiz

Cross-carrier preference matching across the network

bolt

Automatic for returning customers, frictionless for new ones

This is network value your merchants gain by joining Shipit24 — and that your competitors cannot replicate without building the same recipient infrastructure.

UK NETWORK

Native access to the UK's out-of-home delivery infrastructure.

Native carrier integrations

Native integrations with InPost, Royal Mail, Evri, DPD and others — no re-integration as Shipit24 expands the carrier network.

Nationwide coverage

  • 10,000+ InPost lockers
  • 15,000+ Evri ParcelShops
  • 11,500+ Royal Mail collection points
  • 3,000+ DPD Pickup locations
  • 98% of UK postcodes within 1 mile of a pickup point

Ready for UK rollout from day one

Your UK SME customers can use the full network from launch — not in a phased rollout.

INTEGRATION

Designed to fit existing banking and PSP infrastructure.

api

Merchant-level provisioning via API

A single institutional integration enables merchant-wide deployment. Your merchant onboarding flow stays yours; logistics provisioning happens behind the scenes.

shield

No changes to existing payment flows

Shipit24 sits alongside your payment infrastructure, not inside it. No risk to your existing PSP, processor or settlement systems.

webhook

Feeds plug into your existing systems

Tracking, events and settlement feeds emit structured data into your risk, servicing and BI systems through standard webhooks and API endpoints.

RISK & UNDERWRITING

Logistics data creates new underwriting and portfolio risk signals.

Real-time business-health indicators

Merchant shipping activity surfaces seasonality, revenue stability and trend reversals months before they appear in financial statements.

Aggregated portfolio monitoring

Logistics performance data across your SME book enhances portfolio-level monitoring and early-warning risk detection.

Predictive lending signals

Increasing network adoption strengthens shipping signals for credit decisioning and limit increases. For example: a 99% delivery rate correlates with near-zero chargeback exposure.

More merchant activity → stronger credit and portfolio intelligence → higher long-term institutional value.

THE MERCHANT VIEW

Payments-triggered logistics inside the SME banking platform.

receipt_long

Triggered after payment

Order settles → shipment generated. No external tools, no separate login, no copy-paste between systems.

dashboard

Created inside your portal

Your merchants stay in your environment. Shipit24 is invisible as a separate vendor — it's a feature of your platform.
