Parcel company GLS launches the 1-minute parcel service
Sending parcels quickly and easily – that is what GLS-ONE, the new online portal from GLS Austria, is all about. At www.gls-one.at users can create and pay for their parcel label in just one minute, without having to register, the company announces in a press release.
“GLS-ONE offers private senders and small-scale commercial shippers simple access to the parcel services of GLS. In line with the rising e-commerce, these senders are becoming more and more numerous”, says Axel Spörl, General Manager GLS Austria.
The service is self-explanatory and offers tracking. Payment can be made conveniently online via PayPal or credit card. Senders can hand in their parcel at one of the approximately 630 GLS ParcelShops. Depending on the size of the parcel prices start from €2.99 for delivery to a GLS ParcelShop, or 3.49 to any adress. Parcels are delivered within 24 hours in Austria.
GLS-ONE enables customers to send parcels to 25 European countries, within 48 hours to the main markets. GLS-ONE is also available on smartphones.
