Because Outsourcing Your Rates Won’t Save You.

You Need Custom Rates to Match Your Business Needs.

Most e-commerce and retail companies use third-party logistics or label generation platforms, assuming favorable rates. The reality is that they aren’t — and they’re making money from you in the process. Get a personalized carrier strategy instead because your shipping rates should reflect your business's unique aspects.

You Can’t Do This Yourself

Carrier agreements are dozens of pages long and have hundreds of negotiable terms. Deciding on the right mix of rates to suit your business and then maintaining those rates over time with rate increases throughout the year is a full-time job. Tap into our team of experts, backed by industry-leading software and billions of dollars in comparable shipping spend, to know exactly when and how much you need to pivot your carrier rates.

You’ll See an ROI in Less than 90 Days

The journey to better rates is a thorough one, but we get you results in less than three months. However, your time investment is minimal—usually less than 10 hours. ShipScience handles the bulk of the work, from data analysis to negotiation and ongoing rate optimization.
