• User profile: here you can adapt your account information.
• Company profile: under this menu item information needs to be indicated, which is necessary for billing. Especially the VAT number and the corresponding company name as well as the billing address.
• Payment details: choose a credit card or SEPA, as your preferred mean of payment, and provide the missing information.
• Shop connections: here you can connect your Shop System. Please skip this step for now, we will cover it in detail in another section.
• Configuration > Shipment Settings:
  • Send tracking emails: Here you can set whether the recipient of a shipment should automatically receive a tracking email from byrd. If you have already activated the sending of tracking emails from your webshop, we recommend deactivating this option in order to avoid multiple tracking emails.
  • Enable Address validation: We can check every shipment's address using a 3rd party validation service. If an address is invalid, just update it and we'll re-check it. You can also release it anyway without any change. You can find the cost for this feature in your proposal.
  • Enable Automatic shipping option switch: Enable this to have Economy shipments automatically switch to Standard if required (e.g. due to bigger packaging size). If enabled, the shipping costs of your shipments may increase
• Configuration > Notifications: We'll send you an email every weekday morning with the stock status, blocked Shipments, and announced Returns. This feature is free of charge.
