Over 30k retailers use Starshipit to reduce shipping costs
Your platform for cost-effective growth
Starshipit lets you ship as many labels as you need within your pricing plan, without any fees for using your own contracted carrier rates. The savings can add up.
For example, if you ship 500 orders per month on a competing shipping platform (that charges you 0.30c per label), that’s $150 extra you'll need to pay each month!
