Open FedEx Solutions

Posted on February 15th, 2004 under Open Source, PHP, Perl.

Vermonster maintains two very powerful modules that allow businesses of all sizes to do business with FedEx®. Both take advantage of FedEx’s API without the need for their heavy Windows-based Atom server, which means it is cross-platform.

  • Our Perl FedEx-DirectConnect module is a great solution for Perl applications. It is part of most ISPs’ standard package and available on CPAN.
  • Our PHP module is a great PHP solution. It can be found on Freshmeat.

To use this module, there is a registration process to go through with FedEx. If you would like to talk to us about your FedEx® (or shipping in general) project , please fill out our contact form.
