WWEX Group is comprised of Worldwide Express, Unishippers, and GlobalTranz. You can use this integration for any of the three, and can add it to your store multiple times. To use the integration, your account must be a “migrated account”, meaning that it will connect via WWEX Group’s new API. Migrated accounts require a Client ID and a Client Secret as API credentials, as opposed to the API access key that is required for the “legacy” environment.

Follow these instructions for the settings required to establish a connection with WWEX Group’s API. Your account must be active on WWEX Group’s “new tech” platform. Your account representative may refer to accounts on the “new tech” platform as “migrated accounts.”

To connect to the WWEX Group API, you must be in possession of your “Client ID” and “Client Secret”. Contact your account representative if you don’t know what these are. Once you have them you can connect the integration to your account.
