About Matkahuolto
Matkahuolto is a Finnish parcel and freight carrier with a network of parcel points and lockers across Finland, where customers collect and return their parcels. Besides parcel point delivery, Matkahuolto delivers to homes and businesses in Finland, carries pallets and freight, and takes parcels from Finland to the Baltics, Sweden, Denmark and other European countries. Every Matkahuolto shipment starts in Finland, so it's a carrier for webshops that ship from a Finnish warehouse.
Why ship with Matkahuolto through Zippendo?
Zippendo is a shipping platform for webshops. You connect your Matkahuolto sender account once, and from then on your orders become Matkahuolto shipments without anyone typing addresses into a carrier portal. You keep your Matkahuolto prices, and Matkahuolto keeps invoicing you directly.
Let customers pick their Matkahuolto parcel point at checkout
Lähellä-paketti, XXS and Ulkomaan Lähellä-paketti deliver to the parcel point or locker your customer chooses. Your Shopify checkout can show live shipping rates from your own shipping rules, including nearby Matkahuolto points, and the Zippendo checkout plugin adds the same pickup point selector to WooCommerce. The order arrives with the point the customer chose, and Zippendo books delivery to it.
Labels that book and print themselves
With shipping rules you decide once which Matkahuolto product an order should use, for example Lähellä-paketti for most parcels, XXS-luukkujakelu for small items that fit through the mail slot and Kotijakelu for bulky ones. When an order matches, Zippendo books it with Matkahuolto and sends the label to your warehouse printer. On some products you can also ask Matkahuolto to pick the shipment up from your address.
Returns with or without a printed label
With Asiakaspalautus, your customer in Finland drops the return off at any Matkahuolto point. Zippendo can create a printed return label, or a label-free return where the customer gets an activation code instead. Ulkomaan asiakaspalautus brings returns back to Finland from customers abroad.
Tracking on every Matkahuolto parcel
Every shipment gets its Matkahuolto tracking number, and Zippendo keeps the status up to date as the parcel moves, so you and your customer can follow it without logging in to Matkahuolto.

How do I connect Matkahuolto to my webshop?
Connect your shop to Zippendo first, then add your Matkahuolto account. Zippendo has ready-made integrations for Shopify and WooCommerce, and any other system can send orders through the API. Once both are connected, your shipping rules decide which orders go with Matkahuolto, and you can ship with Matkahuolto alongside carriers like PostNord, Bring and DHL Express from the same platform. See all integrations for the full list.
Every Matkahuolto product ships from an address in Finland. All you need is your Matkahuolto sender account number from your agreement; Zippendo supplies the platform login. The Matkahuolto setup guide in our docs walks through the form and how to test before you go live.
