1. The main piece of information Shiptheory will need to connect to your Fast Despatch account is your UUID. To acquire this, you can contact the Fast Despatch helpdesk, as they'll then be able to provide this information. Once you've put it into Shiptheory, Shiptheory will be able to book shipments on your behalf.


2. The next thing to select is which currency your shipments to Fast Despatch are in by default. As, if you don't specify a currency from your channel, the currency specified in this setting will be used.
