Configure the account

The new account opens on its detail page. General settings work the same way for every carrier: the Active toggle, default label and service, and currency. See Add a carrier account for the full reference to these shared settings — default label, merchant access, going live, and common mistakes.

Merchant access

On multi-merchant tenants, restrict the account to specific merchants via the Permissions tab, then Save.

All Glopal settings

Every field Glopal exposes in the carrier account, grouped by section. Carriyo stores secrets encrypted and never shows them after saving.

Authentication

2 fields

Account identifiers and API credentials used to connect to the carrier.

FieldTypeWhat to enter
LoginRequiredTextEnter the API login identifier; sent on every request and used to sign each call.

Capability notes

Behavior that follows from Glopal's capabilities. Read these before you go live.

Status via polling
This carrier has no push callback. Carriyo polls on a schedule, so tracking can lag the carrier's own system by a few minutes.
No rate API
Carrier Shipping Rates has no effect here. Attach a costing profile to set the shipment cost.
