Save 30 To 50 Percent On Shipping With SHIPAID’s Group Network

Shipping costs add up fast. Whether you send a few hundred packages a month or thousands, what you pay carriers like UPS, FedEx, or DHL has a direct impact on your margins.


SHIPAID’s Group Purchasing Organization (GPO) helps you cut those costs without giving up control. You keep your own carrier accounts. You keep your workflows. You just unlock pricing that is usually reserved for the biggest shippers.


Many members are saving between 30 and 50 percent on shipping. Here is how it works and how you can start saving without changing the way you ship.


Why Shipping Costs Climb So Quickly

Shipping is more than a postage line. You are paying for:

  • Base rates from your carrier
  • Fuel surcharges
  • Residential and delivery area fees
  • Extra charges for larger boxes or address corrections


Big retailers can negotiate these down. Smaller and mid sized brands usually cannot. SHIPAID’s group network is designed to close that gap.


What SHIPAID’s GPO Actually Does

SHIPAID brings merchants together to create shared volume that carriers pay attention to. That combined volume unlocks:

  • Lower base rates
  • Better discounts on common surcharges
  • Access to pricing tiers that are normally out of reach


You still ship from your own account. You still see all your shipments and tracking in your existing tools. The only difference is that your account is now tied to group based discounts instead of retail style pricing.


Simple, Fast Setup

There is no new system to learn and no workflow overhaul.

  1. You sign up and get approved for a carrier account such as UPS, FedEx, or DHL
  2. SHIPAID connects your account to group network pricing
  3. You keep shipping from your preferred platform, just at better rates


No delays. No platform switching. Your discounts appear directly in your carrier account.


Real Savings In Practice

Savings depend on your current rates, but many merchants see 30 to 50 percent reductions. For example:

  • A fashion retailer dropped costs from 9.80 dollars per package to 6.45 dollars
  • A subscription box brand saved more than 100,000 dollars in a year
  • A home goods store cut zone based surcharges by more than 40 percent


These are ongoing savings, not one time promotions. They reflect what happens when you stop paying retail rates and start shipping with true volume pricing.


What You Still Control

The model is built for flexibility. You keep:

  • Your carrier dashboard and login
  • Your shipment tracking and pickup scheduling
  • Your preferred software, automations, and warehouse tools


If you want to keep using UPS WorldShip, FedEx Ship Manager, ShipStation, or a custom WMS integration, you can. SHIPAID does not sit between you and your carrier.


You also talk directly to the carrier when something needs attention. SHIPAID is there as a partner, not a bottleneck.


Built In Support

Direct carrier access gives you fast answers. SHIPAID adds another layer of support when you want extra help. Our team can:

  • Assist with claims and billing questions
  • Flag issues with rate setup or unexpected surcharges
  • Share best practices for packaging, DIM weight, and routing


You stay in charge of your program, with experienced shipping specialists in your corner.


Who This Works Best For

SHIPAID’s group pricing model is ideal for businesses that want both control and savings, including:

  • Ecommerce brands on Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and similar platforms
  • Warehouses and 3PLs that already rely on their own logistics tools
  • Subscription box companies with recurring shipments
  • Brands with automation heavy fulfillment and custom flows


If you are stuck with high rates or tools that insert themselves between you and the carrier, SHIPAID offers a cleaner, more flexible alternative.


No Contracts, No Catch

There are no long term contracts or platform changes required.

  • No monthly fees
  • No software migrations
  • No complicated onboarding


You sign up, get approved, connect your account, and start saving.


Final Thoughts

You should not have to ship at enterprise scale to access strong 배송 discounts. SHIPAID’s group network gives you enterprise style pricing with a simple, direct setup.

You keep your carrier account.

You keep your process.

You stay in control.

SHIPAID helps you save smarter and ship your way, while cutting costs by as much as 30 to 50 percent.
