FedEx Express has launched an international and day-definite e-commerce shipping service in the Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa (AMEA) region. FedEx International Connect Plus (FICP) is a cost-friendly and fast shipping service that will help e-commerce companies reach better sales.
One of the leading factors of online cart abandonment is high delivery costs and inflexible delivery date options. FedEx International Connect Plus aims to fix this issue by offering guaranteed delivery within one to five business days in ten AMEA countries - Australia, Hong Kong, and India, to name a few.
E-retailers across the AMEA can now promise their customers day-definite international shipping. FedEx's FICP service will also include tracking, notifications, and flexible delivery date changes through its FedEx Delivery manager.
