Zen Cart Shipping Integrations

What is Zen Cart™

Zen Cart is a free, open-source shopping cart software solution for ecommerce sites. Developed with shoppers and merchants in mind, Zen Cart is designed to make ecommerce as simple as possible. The result is a powerful ecommerce solution that can be implemented by anyone with basic web and computer skills.

Benefits of Using Zen Cart

The beauty of Zen Cart is its simplicity. Compared to other ecommerce solutions, Zen Cart is one of the most user friendly ecommerce solutions available. And, with advanced template systems that run on stylesheets and images, you won’t have to sacrifice customization in order to take advantage of the simplicity.

Another big advantage of Zen Cart is the support of its open-source community who work to provide powerful addons and modules such as language packs, pricing tools, marketing tools, and more. Recently, Stamps.com added a plugin that allows Zen Cart users to easily integrate with Zen Cart to make shipping USPS orders through Zen Cart easier than ever.
