The challenge

Cut shipping costs, protect profit

As Nelly.com scaled, shipping complexity grew with it. Oversized parcels triggered penalty fees. The largest locker sizes from certain carriers were significantly more expensive. Both factors impacted margins on every order. The brand searched for a way to control costs without compromizing the delivery options shoppers expect.

The solution

Filter rules automatically optimize every shipment

Nelly.com analyzed over 300,000 invoiced shipments across two years to spot where costs were leaking. Using Ingrid's filter rules, they redirected shipments away from the most expensive locker sizes and ensured penalty-prone options only showed when dimensions were within limits. The rules went live in minutes without disruption to delivery times or shopper satisfaction.

THE RESULTS

Measurable impact from day one

By implementing smart filter rules through Ingrid, Nelly.com achieved significant cost savings with zero impact on delivery speed or shopper experience.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about how Ingrid helps retailers optimize shipping costs and protect profitability.

How did Nelly.com achieve 1.6M SEK in savings?

Nelly.com analysed over 300,000 invoiced shipments to identify where costs were leaking — specifically oversized parcel locker fees and dimension penalties. Using Ingrid's filter rules, they redirected shipments to more cost-efficient options. The rules went live in minutes with zero impact on delivery times.

What are filter rules and how do they work?

Filter rules let you control which delivery options are shown to shoppers based on criteria like parcel dimensions, weight, or cost thresholds. In Ingrid's platform, you can set and adjust these rules through the UI without any development work — changes go live in minutes.

Will restricting delivery options hurt the shopper experience?

No. Nelly.com's shoppers continued to see a full range of delivery options — just not the cost-inefficient ones. The changes were invisible to shoppers while saving Nelly.com over 1.6M SEK annually.

How long does it take to implement these changes?

Filter rules can be configured and activated within minutes through Ingrid's user interface. Nelly.com went from data analysis to live rules quickly, with immediate cost impact.

Can I apply similar optimizations to my shipping setup?

Yes. Every retailer's shipping setup is different, but the approach is the same — use shipment data to identify cost inefficiencies, then set rules to route around them. Book a demo and we'll walk through what's possible for your specific carrier mix.
