How much do I save on shipping with Shippo’s Marketplace rates?
This program offers up to 55% off Air and 45% off Ground rates, including waived fuel and residential delivery charges.
Shippo also offers a Smart Pickup option for $5/week instead of the standard $13.45/week. Learn about Smart Pickups here: UPS Package Pickups.
Is the UPS account enabled for global shipping?
Yes, you can ship internationally as long as the ship from address is in the United States.
Does the new UPS account offer international discounts?
Discounts will be applied for domestic U.S. shipments and international shipments originating from the United States.
Can I stack the UPS Marketplace discounts on top of the discounts in my old UPS account?
New UPS Marketplace accounts are separate UPS accounts. Discounts are exclusive to that individual account, just as your own discounts you negotiated with UPS are exclusive to your own original account.
How does billing work?
You get billed directly by UPS.
After you create your UPS Marketplace account through Shippo, you'll need to create a UPS Billing Center profile (unless you already have one!) and then connect the UPS Marketplace account to the UPS Billing Center.
To learn more about all available billing options and payment schedules, visit this link. You can manage all of your UPS accounts through the UPS Billing Center.
How do I find my UPS Billing Center login credentials when creating a UPS account through Shippo?
You just need to Sign Up for UPS Billing Center access. Then, link your UPS Marketplace account (see below).
If you already have a UPS Billing Center login, you can simply connect your UPS Marketplace account to it along with your other UPS account(s).
The UPS Marketplace account details from Shippo cannot be used to log in to the UPS Billing Center.
