Shopify has rolled out a new integration with Uber Direct that lets Shopify Plus merchants in the U.S., Canada, and France offer one-hour, same-day, or scheduled local delivery directly from their online store or POS system.
The partnership brings Uber’s white-label courier network into Shopify’s checkout and fulfilment workflow, giving large retailers real-time delivery quotes, automated dispatching, and live tracking without the need to build their own last-mile infrastructure.
The move targets enterprise-level merchants looking to speed up local delivery while reducing operational complexity.
Once enabled, the tool automatically routes eligible orders to Uber Direct, assigns a courier, and sends live updates to the customer until the parcel is delivered.

Uber Direct global head of product Micheline Etkin said the collaboration is designed to remove friction from same-day logistics: “Our goal is to make delivery so reliable, fast, and easy that merchants can focus on serving their customers and growing their business.
“By bringing Uber Direct into the Shopify ecosystem, we’re giving retailers the ability to offer premium local delivery without additional tech build or operational overhead.”
Shopify said the integration is now available to all Shopify Plus merchants operating in eligible regions, with broader availability expected over time.
