DirectShip is one of the FBP (Fulfilled by Partner) models that sellers can choose based on certain criteria to manage their business operations.
DirectShip is ideal for sellers who sell items that aren't bulky and that don’t require installation. It is a fast back-to-back operations model which requires sellers to prepare orders for fulfillment themselves. They'll have to pack items in the noon packaging and label them, then hand them over to noon for shipping.
To process DirectShip orders, sellers will use our user-friendly app (only compatible with Android phones and tablets) that will enable them to conveniently scan packages, barcodes, and easily take pictures for quality assurance. They can then track their orders, and access fulfillment reports directly on Seller Lab.
To fulfill your orders using the App, follow below steps:
1. Start by ordering packing materials here at least one week in advance.
2. Add a Project User who will be using the app to process orders here. Click here to know how to add a Project User on Seller Lab.
3. Download the "Supply Chain" app here and install it your devices (only compatible with Android phones and tablets). Supply Chain App Login Guide
4. If you receive a large number of orders, let us know and we'll activate the option to fulfill via Picklist for you. Otherwise, you can start processing all pending orders on your app.
5. Prepare your orders and pack them in the noon packaging. Always make sure that you pack the correct product that the customer ordered and that it's in good condition. DirectShip packaging guidelines
6. We’ll pick up your items, deliver them to customers, and manage your returns.
7. Each order will have
a tracking number which will appear in Seller Lab to simplify tracking.
Sellers can also fulfill orders using the web, in order to do this they need to have a 2D barcode scanner. Sellers can switch to the web version by selecting it in the warehouse settings.

Sellers can request a revision of shipment measurements recorded by noon's logistics hub. Sellers can access the DirectShip Fee report on Seller Lab, and if there are measurement discrepancies, they can raise a dispute within 14 days of the statement generation date by providing specific details and supporting image URLs. The dispute resolution process involves adjustment of fees for valid disputes, while rejected disputes are explained via email, with common rejection reasons including measurements within a 5% tolerance range and exceeding the 14-day dispute window.
