Can I Join If I Already Have a Shipping Account?

Yes. ShipAid Can Work With Your Existing Carrier Relationships

You can absolutely join ShipAid even if you already have active shipping accounts with carriers like UPS, FedEx, DHL, or USPS. In many cases, ShipAid can apply negotiated rates and Delivery Guarantee services directly to your existing setup.

However, the final outcome depends on your current shipping activity, rate tiers, and carrier agreements.

What to Expect

ShipAid works with both:

  • Your own carrier accounts
  • ShipAid-managed carrier accounts

If you choose to keep your own, we will evaluate the compatibility of your account with our Shipping Rates Program and Delivery Guarantee features.

Key Factors We Review:

  • Volume of shipments on your account
  • Current rate structure with the carrier
  • Integration capability with your shipping software
  • Any existing contractual restrictions

In some cases, using a ShipAid-managed account may provide better rates or simpler setup. In others, keeping your own account makes the most sense.

Benefits of Keeping Your Own Carrier Account

  • Maintain your existing billing and automation workflows
  • Avoid operational disruption during onboarding
  • Continue using tools you already know
  • Potentially combine your negotiated rates with ShipAid’s features

When ShipAid-Managed Accounts Make Sense

If your shipping volume is moderate or spread across multiple carriers, ShipAid can offer access to its group-negotiated enterprise rates through ShipAid-managed accounts.

This may result in:

  • Lower shipping costs
  • Simpler onboarding
  • Improved access to premium carrier services

Best Next Step

Because results vary depending on your shipping profile, the best option is to connect with a ShipAid team member for a quick assessment.

We will review your current account setup and let you know:

  • If you are eligible for rate improvements
  • How ShipAid’s tools will integrate
  • Whether to keep your carrier accounts or switch

This ensures you get the best performance without disrupting your current fulfillment flow.

Final Thoughts

Yes, you can join ShipAid with an existing shipping account. We are built to support flexible setups so you can keep what is working and enhance what is not.
