Transparent Pricing With No Hidden Fees: Understanding ShipAid’s Markup Model

Simple Shipping Costs You Can Trust

Shipping fees can be confusing and full of hidden costs. ShipAid changes that by offering one easy-to-understand price. What you see is what you pay no hidden fees, no surprise charges, and no monthly bills. Just a small markup already built into your discounted shipping rate.

In this article, we’ll explain how ShipAid’s pricing model works, why it’s great for businesses of all sizes, and how it can help you save money and plan better.

Why Clear Pricing Matters

If you're running a business, you need to know your costs. But many shipping platforms make this hard with extra charges or unclear pricing.

ShipAid keeps things simple. Every time you print a label, the price you see includes the carrier discount and a small markup. Nothing extra shows up later. Just a clean, honest rate.

How ShipAid’s Markup Works

Here’s what happens:

• ShipAid negotiates discounted shipping rates for its users.
• When you ship a package, the rate shown includes the discount and ShipAid’s small markup.
• That markup is ShipAid’s fee there are no other charges.

Example:

If the carrier’s rate is $7.00 and ShipAid adds a 10% markup, your total is $7.70. That’s it. No hidden fees. No surprises.

Why It’s Better

Let’s look at why ShipAid’s pricing model stands out:

• Fair: You only pay when you ship. No sign-up fees. No monthly fees.
• Easy: What you see is what you pay. No guesswork.
• Grows with you: As your business grows, your pricing stays in line with your volume.

Other platforms often charge extra fees, require contracts, or set shipping minimums. ShipAid avoids all of that.

No Contracts, No Minimums

With ShipAid, there’s:

• No long-term contracts
• No subscription fees
• No minimum shipment requirement

You just sign up and start saving. Whether you ship 50 or 5,000 packages a month, you get the same easy access to great rates.

Compare Your Options

ShipAid’s model is one of the simplest and most business-friendly options out there.

A Real-World Example

Let’s say you ship 200 packages a month. Each package has a base cost of $5.00.

• With ShipAid (10% markup): 200 x $5.50 = $1,100/month
• Without ShipAid (retail rate $8.00): 200 x $8.00 = $1,600/month

You save $500/month or $6,000/year just by using ShipAid.

Why It Builds Trust

When you understand your costs, it’s easier to run your business. ShipAid helps you:

• Set accurate shipping prices at checkout
• Protect your profits
• Make smarter decisions as you grow
