ZIM Integrated Shipping Services
ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. (NYSE: ZIM) is a global container liner shipping company founded in 1945 and headquartered in Haifa, Israel. ZIM operates in more than 90 countries, serving over 30,000 customers across more than 300 ports worldwide with a differentiated global-niche strategy focused on agile fleet management and select trade lanes. The company is publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange and, as of 2026, is the subject of a pending acquisition by Hapag-Lloyd at approximately $35.00 per share. ZIM's digital surface includes the myZIM customer area, ZIMonitor cargo visibility, an electronic Bill of Lading (eB/L) service, a Draft B/L tool, EDI integrations for booking and shipping instructions, a mobile application, and a developer API portal at api.zim.com hosted on Microsoft Azure API Management. Access to the ZIM API requires registering through ZIM API Support and obtaining a security token; rate limits are set per organization at registration. No public OpenAPI specification, SDKs, or GitHub organization are published, so ZIM is profiled here as a Tier-3 catalog entry pending spec disclosure or partner access.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles ZIM Integrated Shipping Services the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — ZIM Integrated Shipping Services scores 8.5/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
