Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make the API work with my shopping cart (OSCommerce, Magento etc)?

In short - you cant. Unless you're a programmer. The API contains calls that can be used to build shopping cart modules. It is not a module for every shopping cart/ecommerce platform on the market.

Where did the API wrappers go?

We decided to remove them so we didnt have to maintain them - the API is standard enough that any HTTP client library/JSON parser can deal with it no problem.

Exceeded your maximum daily API call limit

Fastway imposes a 100 call a day limit on API calls. To increase this restriction, please contact our support (Contact page) and provide the company name and email address you used to sign up as a Fastway Customer.

Creating your own electronic consignment platform

For customers who wish to integrate with Fastway to consign electronically and print labels, you'll need to have access to our FastLabel API.

To request for a FastLabel API access, you must be a FastLabel customer. If you're already a FastLabel customer and require access the FastLabel API, please contact our support (Contact page) with your company name and email address you used to sign up as a Fastway Customer.

If you're not a FastLabel customer, you'll need to speak to your local depot about using FastLabel.
