Claude
ChatGPTMCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude and ChatGPT use real tools — and Europarcel's MCP server makes parcel shipping one of them. Connect it once, then simply ask: "Send a 2 kg parcel with GLS from Berlin to Vienna." Your assistant fetches live prices, books the GLS shipment, and hands you the label and tracking number — you stay in the chat, and you confirm before anything is booked.
GLS is the quiet favourite of small and mid-sized European shops: a dense road network across the continent, solid business-parcel service, and FlexDelivery, which lets your customer pick another day, a neighbour or a local ParcelShop while the parcel is in transit. If your MCP setup ships a lot within the EU, GLS often wins the price-performance comparison.
And when GLS isn't the best deal for a particular parcel? That's the point of shipping through Europarcel instead of a single-carrier plugin: the same MCP integration shows live offers from DHL, Hermes, DPD, GLS, UPS and FedEx side by side, and you book whichever wins — from €4.99 within Germany and €7.99 to the EU, insurance and tracking included, no subscription.

Integration FAQs
?How do I integrate GLS into MCP?
Connect Europarcel's MCP server to Claude or ChatGPT once; GLS and five more carriers are then available to your assistant in plain language — no GLS contract or developer work needed.
?What does GLS shipping via MCP cost?
The MCP integration itself is free — you only pay for the shipment. Europarcel prices start at €4.99 within Germany and €7.99 for Germany ↔ EU, insurance included. You compare GLS's live offer with five other carriers before every booking — no subscription.
?Can I create GLS labels directly from MCP?
Yes — ask your assistant to book the shipment and it returns the GLS label as a PDF plus the tracking number, ready to print.
?Do my customers get GLS tracking automatically?
Yes. The GLS tracking number flows back into MCP as soon as the shipment is booked, and every Europarcel shipment is also trackable on one unified tracking page — regardless of carrier.
?Can I offer other carriers besides GLS in MCP?
That's the core of Europarcel: the same integration covers DHL, Hermes, DPD, GLS, UPS and FedEx. Every shipment picks the best offer — by price, speed or service — instead of being locked to one carrier.
