## Shipping software comparison FAQs

### What should I compare when choosing shipping software?

Start with the work your team needs to do every day: importing orders, choosing carriers, printing labels, handling exceptions and keeping customers updated. Then compare carrier coverage, rate and label-fee models, automation, integrations, post-purchase tools, reporting and the support included on your plan.

### Can I use my own negotiated carrier rates with Starshipit?

Yes. Starshipit lets you use your own contracted carrier rates without hidden or additional per-label fees within your plan. If you are starting out, you can also access available plug-and-play carrier options, then move to your own rates as your operation grows.

### Does Starshipit charge a fee for every shipping label?

No. When you use your own negotiated carrier rates, Starshipit does not add a hidden or extra per-label fee within your plan. This is worth checking closely when comparing shipping platforms, as label-fee models can affect costs as order volumes increase.

### How much does Starshipit cost?

Starshipit offers Starter, Professional and Enterprise plans based on your monthly order volume and the features your team needs. Compare our [shipping software pricing and plan inclusions](/pricing) to find the right fit, including custom options for operations shipping more than 10,000 orders per month.

### Can Starshipit connect my eCommerce platform and couriers?

Yes. Starshipit connects [major eCommerce platforms, marketplaces and sales channels](/integrations) with 60+ domestic and international couriers. That gives your team one dashboard for orders, carrier services, labels and dispatch rather than switching between separate systems.

### Can Starshipit automate dispatch and shipping decisions?

Yes. Use [shipping rules](/fulfilment-automation) to automate decisions such as carrier and service selection, packaging, address checks, batching and label printing. This gives your team a consistent workflow and reduces the manual steps that slow dispatch down.

### Does Starshipit support live rates, tracking and returns?

Yes. You can add live rates at checkout, branded tracking pages, delivery notifications and a self-service returns portal to create a more connected post-purchase experience. Check the features included in any plan you are comparing, as these tools are often packaged separately across the market.

### Does Starshipit support international and multi-location fulfilment?

Starshipit supports domestic and international shipping workflows, including customs documentation for supported carriers, [Duties and Taxes](/duties-and-taxes) tools, and shipping from stores or other locations. Carrier services, destinations and setup requirements vary, so confirm the details for your operation with our team.

### Do I need Pick & Pack or WMS to use Starshipit shipping?

No. Starshipit’s shipping platform works on its own, with 5-star customer support and onboarding on every plan. If your workflows become more complex, you can add [Pick & Pack](/mobile-fulfilment) for scan-led picking and packing, or [Starshipit WMS](/warehouse-management) for broader inventory and warehouse workflows.
