Abstract
Provided herein are various embodiments of using machine readable technologies for the smart shipping of multiple products. An embodiment operates by receiving a request from a seller to ship a plurality of items that have been sold via an electronic marketplace. Information pertinent to shipping each of the plurality of items is predicted. A shipping company to ship the plurality of items is selected and provided the predicted information. A single machine readable code for shipping the plurality of items using the identified shipping company is determined based at least in part on the predicted information. A confirmation is received from the computing system of the shipping company responsive to the single machine readable code being scanned by a computing device of the computing system of the shipping company, the confirmation indicating that one or more of the plurality of items have been received by shipping company for shipment.
