SHIPAID Shipping Rates Billing: Real Savings, Full Control, No Guesswork
Ship Your Way, Spend Less
Shipping is a big line item, whether you send a few hundred orders a month or thousands. SHIPAID’s Shipping Rates Program uses a group purchasing model so you can access enterprise-level carrier discounts without changing how you work.
You:
- Keep your own direct carrier account
- Keep your existing software and workflows
- Get access to volume-based discounts normally reserved for very large shippers
Most merchants see meaningful savings while staying fully in control.
Why Shipping Costs Climb So Fast
A shipping invoice is more than a label price. It can include:
- Base rates by zone and weight
- Fuel surcharges
- Residential and delivery area fees
- Dimensional weight (DIM) adjustments
- Address correction and other surcharges
Large brands negotiate these down. Smaller merchants usually cannot. SHIPAID’s group network bridges that gap.
How The Group Network Works
SHIPAID aggregates volume across many merchants to unlock top tier carrier discounts.
You still:
- Ship from your own account
- See all your data and tracking
- Work directly with carriers for pickups and support
The difference is your pricing, which reflects the collective volume of the network instead of your standalone volume.
Getting Started
Onboarding is straightforward.
- Sign up and, if needed, get approved for a carrier account
- SHIPAID links your account to pre-negotiated GPO pricing
- You keep using your existing shipping tools
No migrations. No new portals required. Your workflows stay the same. Your rates improve.
Real Savings In Practice
Savings depend on your current deal and volume, but many brands see 30 to 50 percent lower shipping costs. Examples include:
- A fashion brand reducing cost per shipment from 9.80 dollars to 6.45 dollars
- A subscription box company saving over 100,000 dollars in a year
- A home goods store cutting certain surcharges by more than 40 percent
This is what happens when smaller brands gain access to big shipper pricing.
Two Invoices, Full Clarity
With SHIPAID, billing stays simple:
- One invoice from your carrier, as usual
- One invoice from SHIPAID for access to group pricing and support
You see exactly what you are paying the carrier and what you are paying SHIPAID. The combined total is typically far below what you would pay alone at retail or mid-tier rates.
You Stay In Control
You keep:
- Your carrier dashboards
- Your pickup scheduling and tracking tools
- Your automations and integrations
- Your direct relationship with the carrier
