Stop Guessing What a Box Costs to Ship
Live USPS rates at checkout — domestic and international, real flat-rate box fitting, multi-box orders priced the way they actually ship. The flat-rate table in your head retires today.
What Your Checkout Gets
Every rate is asked for, not assumed. Here's what's under the hood.
Live Domestic Rates
Eleven mail classes — Ground Advantage, Priority, Priority Express, Parcel Select, Media Mail, Library Mail, Bound Printed Matter, and three Connect services. Offer exactly what fits your catalog.
International, Done Right
Fourteen international services, including Global Express Guaranteed for the orders that absolutely have to arrive fast. No more "email us for a shipping quote."
Never a Rate You Can't Buy
Permit-only, presorted, bulk-mailer pricing gets filtered out before it ever reaches your shopper. Every quote shown is a quote you can actually pay for.
Real Flat-Rate Fitting
Orders get test-fit into real flat-rate boxes and envelopes up to 70 lb before a price is offered. Scope it to Priority only, Express only, everything, or off.
Three Packing Modes
Per item, full box-packing against a custom library of your real boxes, or straight weight tiers. Pick the one that matches how you actually pack.
Multi-Box Orders, Handled
Orders that split across boxes get every box priced individually, only shared services shown, and real per-box costs summed. No more shrug math.
Delivery Time at Checkout
Estimated transit days shown before the click, straight from carrier service data. Your shopper knows when it lands before they buy.
Commercial or Retail Pricing
Show the rate you actually pay with your business account, not the walk-in counter price nobody with a shipping account pays.
Fast, Cached Checkout
The carrier handshake is cached instead of repeated on every quote request, so your checkout isn't stalling waiting on a fresh round trip.
Geozone Restriction
Only offer these rates where you actually want to ship this carrier. Everywhere else, it stays out of the way.
Handling Fee, Your Way
Flat or percentage, bake your packaging and labor cost into the rate automatically instead of hand-adjusting orders one at a time.
The Box You're Shipping Is the Price You Pay
Carrier pricing data quietly includes two prices for the same product name — one for a rectangular box, one for an envelope-shaped non-rectangular parcel — and the wrong one usually looks like the better deal. This engine keeps the price for the shape you're actually shipping.
- No quoting envelope pricing on a box order
- Correct shape, every single time, automatically
- No manual double-checking required
Multi-Box Orders Stop Being a Guessing Game
When a cart splits across two, three, or more packages, this engine prices every box on its own, keeps only the services every box can actually ship on, and adds the real per-package costs together — not a single-parcel rate pretending to cover a whole shipment.
- Every package priced individually
- Only shared services shown to the shopper
- Real totals, not stacked guesses
Flat-Rate Boxes That Actually Have to Fit
Flip on flat-rate mode and orders get test-fit into real flat-rate containers — up to 70 lb — before a price gets offered. Scope it to Priority only, Express only, everything, or leave it off entirely.
- Actual fit test, not "probably fits"
- Scoped to the services where it saves money
- Cheapest container that genuinely holds the order
Real-World Use Cases
Your Shipping Table Has Been Wrong This Whole Time
Every order that doesn't match your flat rate is money you're quietly giving away. Let the checkout ask the actual carrier instead of you asking your gut. Simple math.
