Can I receive packages by taking a picture of the label?

Yes. Photo label scanning reads the tracking number, carrier, mailbox number, weight and description from a picture of the label, matches the package to the right customer, and fills in the form. Staff confirm the details and weigh the parcel before saving, and the photo stays on the package as its label image.

Does it work with my barcode scanner?

Yes. Any USB or Bluetooth scanner that types the tracking number works, and so does the camera on a phone or tablet.

Can I run more than one warehouse or branch?

Yes. Branches sit under one account, and packages, staff and pickups can each be tied to a branch.

Can I print shipping labels?

Yes. Package labels print individually or in bulk, sized for standard 4x6 label printers.

Is this a WMS for retail inventory?

No. LogisticsPlug is built for courier, package forwarding and freight warehouses that handle customers' packages, not stock-keeping inventory.

Warehouse management software for courier and freight warehouses

A courier warehouse is not a retail warehouse. You are not tracking SKUs; you are receiving thousands of other people's packages, getting each one to the right customer, consolidating them into shipments and keeping track of every one until it leaves the building.

LogisticsPlug's warehouse tools are built for that job: snap a photo of the label and the package is filled in for you, shelf locations so anything can be found in seconds, consolidation into shipments and manifests, and labels printed straight from the package.

Photo label scanning: snap the label, skip the typing

Take a picture of the package label with a phone or tablet and the system reads it for you: tracking number, carrier, mailbox number, weight and description. The mailbox number is matched to the right courier and customer, the form is filled in, and the photo is kept as the package's label image. Staff check the details, weigh the parcel and save, instead of typing every label by hand.

Matches the mailbox to the right courier and customer automatically
Label photo saved on the package for proof and disputes
Clear warning when a label can't be read or the mailbox isn't recognised

Receiving at scanner speed

Scan a barcode, use a phone camera, or type the tracking number. The scan goes straight to the server, so even a fast hardware scanner never outruns the lookup. The package is matched to its customer by mailbox number.

Automatic match to customer by mailbox
Unknown package queue for anything unmatched
Weight and dimensions recorded at intake

Shelves and put-away

Create shelf and bin locations and assign packages to them, so whoever is at the counter can find any package without searching the room.

Multiple locations, one system

Run several branches or warehouses under one account. Packages, staff and pickups belong to a branch, and staff roles control exactly what each person can see and do.

Connect to couriers and partners

Warehouses that serve several couriers can push packages and shipments to them through the partner API, so the courier sees each package the moment you receive it.
