Merchant API

Dispatch last-mile orders with the network's capacity, the right vehicle for each shipment, no fleet of your own. API, webhooks, and a panel.

dispatches:createwebhook per statepublic tracking
dispatches:create

Right vehicle, per shipment

Post pickup, drop, and parcel data; the node assigns moto, car, or truck, no fleet of your own.

tracking:public

Live tracking, no app

Your customer follows the shipment from a public link, no download, no account.

pod:photo · pod:signature · pod:pin

Proof of delivery

Close each shipment with a photo, signature, or PIN, confirmed back over webhook.

M17 · Console

The dispatch console

Build a dispatch, watch the registry route it to the city node, and hand your customer a public tracking link. Sample data, connect your panel before going live.

POST /merchant/dispatches
Parcel class
standardfragilerefrigeratedoversized

We record class, size, and weight only, never what's inside.

// Sample form, connect your store / POS to the panel before publishing. Cash on delivery is offered only where the receiving node supports it.

M17 · Shipment states

A webhook per transition

Every dispatch moves through extended shipment states and each transition fires a webhook, so your store stays in sync without polling.

  1. 1
    Create, POST /merchant/dispatches with pickup, drop, and parcel data.
  2. 2
    Route, the registry routes to the city node, which assigns moto, car, or truck.
  3. 3
    Track, your customer follows the public link; you receive a webhook per state.
  4. 4
    Deliver, proof of delivery (photo, signature, or PIN) closes the shipment.

// The registry that routes across city nodes is part of the network plane, roadmap, not a live cross-network service yet.

Batch import and store integration

Push a day of orders at once, or create dispatches automatically the moment a sale is confirmed.

M17 · Privacy by design

Parcel contents are never recorded

The Merchant API moves what you ship without ever knowing what's inside. We record only the data needed to route and carry it, class, size, and weight. Nothing else.

Size & weightRecorded
Parcel contentsNever recorded
Public tracking linkShipment status only

// The public link shows position, ETA, and state, not contents, and not your customer's account.
