This flag indicates whether the seller has opted into the 'Get It Fast' shipping program for the listing. 'Get It Fast' shipping is only available for fixed-price listings and auction listings with an active 'Buy It Now' option.
To enable 'Get It Fast' shippping for a listing, the seller must:
- offer at least one domestic one-day shipping service option, such as USPS Express Mail, UPS Next Day Air, or FedEx Overnight;
- set the shippingPolicyInfo.dispatchTimeMax value to '1', which means that the seller is committing to ship the item within one business day after receiving payment from the buyer. Starting in May 2013, a DispatchTimeMax value of '0' will indicate that the seller is offering same-day shipping. As soon as same-day shipping becomes available to them, sellers can set the shippingPolicyInfo.dispatchTimeMax value to '0' or '1' to enable 'Get It Fast' shipping.
Although it is not required, it is recommended that sellers also offer an immediate payment option to the buyer, so they can get their item even faster. In the payment profile, this option is turned on with the
paymentInfo.immediatePay flag. To enable the immediate payment feature on a listing, the seller must:
- have a Premier or Business PayPal account;
- provide a valid Item.PayPalEmailAddress value;
- offer 'PayPal' as the single payment method in the Item.PaymentMethods field.
The
fastShipping field should only be included and set to 'true' in
domesticShippingPolicyInfoService containers where the shipping service option is a one-day shipping service. The
fastShipping field is not applicable for
internationalShippingPolicyInfoService containers.
Not supported for UK Store Inventory format or Half.com items.
If 'Get It Fast' shipping is set for a domestic shipping service, this field is returned in the shipping profiles returned in the
getSellerProfiles,
addSellerProfile, or
setSellerProfile calls.
