Easyship

Easyship is a shipping platform and API for merchants bringing orders from multiple sales channels into one workflow. It suits growing stores and businesses shipping across borders, while low-volume shippers can start without a subscription. Its breadth is a strength, but shipment thresholds and a prohibited-items policy make fit worth checking before committing.

Overview

Easyship brings courier comparison, order handling, labels, tracking and customs paperwork together. It connects to more than 550 courier services and advertises discounts of up to 91% off retail prices; that ceiling is not a promise for every shipment. Coverage spans more than 50 origin countries and delivery to more than 200 destinations, making the platform relevant to international as well as domestic operations.

Orders can sync from connected stores, labels can be generated individually or in bulk, and customers can receive delivery updates through branded tracking. Easyship offers rate shopping and shipping automation, but not a returns portal. It is headquartered in New York and Hong Kong.

Key features

Carrier and order workflows

Comparing more than 550 courier services in one account can reduce the need to manage carrier relationships separately. Discounted rates and intelligent courier selection are useful for merchants weighing delivery options, while bulk labels and order syncing address repetitive fulfillment work. Customs documents and import tax and duty calculation support cross-border orders.

Store connections and API

Native integrations include Shopify, WooCommerce, WIX, Squarespace, eBay, Amazon and TikTok Shop, alongside more than 55 other eCommerce and marketplace platforms. That breadth is a practical fit for multichannel merchants. The Open Shipping API adds multi-carrier rates, domestic and international address validation, HS codes, tax and duty calculations, and third-party tracking for teams building shipping into their own systems.

Easyship advertises 24/7 global support for integrations and states that its platform has 99.99% uptime. Its shipping analytics infrastructure is described as SOC 2 and GDPR compliant with 99.9% uptime. Those are distinct uptime figures for the platform and analytics infrastructure.

Pricing

Easyship is freemium, with a free plan and a 14-day trial. The Free plan costs nothing, forever, and covers fewer than 50 shipments a month, discounted shipping rates, intelligent courier selection, import tax and duty calculation, and smart box selection. It is a sensible entry point for low-volume shippers, but it does not include the higher-volume thresholds and paid-plan features.

Plus costs $29 a month, billed from $29/month, with annual billing saving 20%. Its 50–500 shipments a month, checkout shipping rates, own-courier account linking, order auto-sync and live chat support suit a growing store that needs more connected fulfillment. Premier costs $69 a month, billed from $69/month, also with 20% savings on annual billing. At 500–2,500 shipments monthly, it adds tax and duty at checkout, pre-generated return labels, multi-box shipping and 24/7 phone support. The labels are useful for returns, but Easyship still does not provide a returns portal.

The API-focused Scale plans cost $99 a month, $149 a month and $199 a month for Scale 1, Scale 2 and Scale 3 respectively, billed from the corresponding monthly price. Their included monthly allocations rise by tier: 20,000, 30,000 or 40,000 Rates API calls; 1,250, 1,875 or 2,500 calls each for non-US and US address validation; and 1,000, 1,500 or 2,000 off-platform tracking calls. These are better suited to API workloads than storefront shipment volumes. Advanced API usage on Free is pay-as-you-go; paid plans include monthly successful-call allocations and charge per-call overages without blocking access.

Enterprise has custom pricing for a high-volume solution, dedicated support, alternative SLAs and specialized features. The listed shipment bands help smaller merchants judge fit, while API users should choose against their call quotas and account for overages.

Platforms

Easyship is available on web, Android and iOS, and offers an API. That combination accommodates both merchants using the app and businesses integrating shipping functions into their own systems.

Who it's for

Easyship is aimed at everyone from personal shippers and crowdfunding businesses to SMB stores and Fortune 500 businesses. Its carrier network, marketplace integrations and international coverage are most compelling for merchants with recurring, multichannel or cross-border shipments. A business needing a dedicated API allocation can consider Scale; a high-volume operation can discuss Enterprise. Shippers handling prohibited goods should look elsewhere: Easyship bars alcohol, ammunition, firearms, tobacco, prescription pharmaceuticals, explosives, flammable or hazardous products, and counterfeit items.

Pros and cons

• Broad carrier choice: comparison across more than 550 services and advertised discounts up to 91% off retail prices give merchants options in one account.
• Useful cross-border tools: customs documents, tax and duty calculation, and delivery to more than 200 destinations support international fulfillment.
• Multichannel reach: native integrations span major storefronts and marketplaces plus more than 55 other platforms.
• Volume-based trade-offs: Free is limited to fewer than 50 monthly shipments, with Plus and Premier divided into higher shipment bands.
• No returns portal: pre-generated return labels on Premier do not provide a full portal for managing returns.
• Goods restrictions: the prohibited-items list rules out several regulated, hazardous and counterfeit categories.

Verdict

Easyship is a strong choice for merchants that need broad courier comparison, connected store workflows and international shipping tools in one platform. Its free tier gives small shippers a way to start, while paid shipment bands and API quotas provide clearer paths for growing workloads. Look elsewhere if you need a returns portal or ship goods on its prohibited list.
