See how the two Baltic-born shipping tools, Swotzy and Sendparcel, compare.
Sendparcel, also known as Siųsk pigiau (made in Lithuania), and Swotzy (Latvia) are both shipping solutions, but they’re built with different goals in mind.
If you’re wondering which one is right for your business, you’re not alone. These tools can look similar, but the details matter.
We’ll break down the real differences between Swotzy and Sendparcel—from how they handle checkout and automation to their carrier coverage and long-term costs.
Let’s start by taking a closer look at each platform.
Swotzy is an e-commerce shipping platform designed to make order fulfillment easy and scalable for online stores, especially in the Baltics and Europe. It connects directly with your store, automates shipping rules, and gives both you and your customers flexible delivery options—like choosing parcel lockers at checkout.
With Swotzy, you can easily compare rates across multiple carriers, automate label creation, and manage shipments from a single dashboard. It’s all about saving time, and reducing manual work.
Sendparcel started as a parcel booking service and has grown into a tool for shipping parcels worldwide. It offers access to a wide network of carriers and lets you book shipments, print labels, and track parcels in one place.
Its core strength is making it easy to send parcels quickly, without needing to sign up for carrier contracts, for anyone, whether you’re a business or an individual. It’s a straightforward option for occasional shippers and smaller sellers who want a simple, pay-as-you-go solution.
But there are key differences in both of these, specifically in usability and price.

With Swotzy integrations, you can set up a wide variety of delivery options at your checkout, and include any of Swotzy’s offered courier services (set up any region), as well as parcel locker deliveries (in the Baltics).
When you integrate and set up your checkout, shoppers can:
Sendparcel, via its API, can show shipping offers on your site, but it doesn’t provide the same polished, ready‑made checkout plugins.
Giving shoppers clear, flexible delivery choices, especially convenient parcel lockers, can make a real difference in conversions.
Swotzy leans heavily into automation. You can set up custom rules, like choosing carriers or services based on what you’re shipping, so things run on autopilot. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
Sendparcel offers automation too, mostly through its API:
But you won’t find the same visual rule builder or plug-and-play integrations that make shipping with Swotzy feel effortless.
As you scale your business, manual steps can quickly eat into your margins and time. Swotzy’s approach is about eliminating those repetitive tasks. Sendparcel is more of a flexible toolbox if you want to build your own system, but it usually means more setup and ongoing maintenance on your end.
Both platforms connect you to a wide range of major carriers, but the way you work with those carriers is quite different.
If you want maximum transparency and the ability to constantly shop for the best rates, Swotzy will make the best choice. Sendparcel is convenient if you’re happy with their pricing model and mainly want a simple quote‑and‑book interface.
Swotzy carriers: FedEx, DHL, UPS, Pasts, Omniva, DPD, Venipak, SmartPosti, Nova Post, Lietuvos paštas, LP Express, Unisend, QWQER Express
Sendparcel carriers: LP Express, DPD, Venipak, Omniva, DHL, SmartPosti, DB schenker, DSV, USPS, FedEx, SST Express, GLS, Deutsche Post, Lietuvos Paštas, Royal Mail, Raben.
When it comes to costs, both Swotzy and Sendparcel keep things simple—there are no subscriptions or setup fees. You only pay for the shipments you actually send.
With Swotzy, you get access to pre‑negotiated rates with no minimum volume requirements or contracts. It’s a true pay‑as‑you‑go setup, designed with e‑commerce growth in mind. These rate aggregation and automation features can help lower your overall shipping costs as your store scales.
Sendparcel follows a similar pay‑per‑shipment approach and also skips the subscription fees. They offer a loyalty discount: you get 5% off after shipping 20 parcels in a month, and 8% off if you hit 40 shipments or spend over €1,100.
For a growing store, it’s much more practical to work with a platform that offers clear, low rates as it delivers more value and predictability.
Swotzy is great if you’re selling in the Baltics or across Europe. It’s deeply integrated with local carriers and parcel locker networks like Omniva, DPD, Venipak, LP Express, and SmartPosti—making it a perfect fit for regional e-commerce brands.
Sendparcel also has roots in Lithuania and the Baltics, and it offers shipping worldwide. But while Swotzy feels purpose-built for e-commerce in this region, Sendparcel leans more toward being a global parcel booking tool.
So, if your business is based in, or selling to, the Baltics and Europe, Swotzy’s strong local carrier and locker coverage gives you a real edge.
The right shipping platform depends on where your business is today—and where you want to go.
If you’re building a modern e-commerce brand, especially in the Baltics or Europe, Swotzy is designed to help you scale. Its deep store integrations, local carrier coverage, automations, and transparent rate comparisons make it a natural extension of your online business. You’ll save time, reduce manual work, and get the flexibility to always pick the best shipping option for your customers.
Sendparcel could be your choice if you’re sending parcels on an ad-hoc basis. It’s main advantage is that, it provides quick connectivity with more platforms, which means that you can overview all your store orders in one place.
