Overview
Shippo provides a REST API and dashboard for multi-carrier shipping with branded post-purchase tracking. Suited for SMB to mid-market e-commerce operations needing accessible shipping management.
Our verdict
Best for small and mid-size e-commerce sellers that want discounted multi-carrier rates and a clean shipping API without a per-seat platform fee.
Strengths
- Free Starter plan plus transparent published app pricing make it easy to start with no setup fee
- Developer-friendly API with public docs, SDKs, and access to 40-plus carriers through one integration
- Strong user reviews on Capterra and GetApp, with 4.8 out of 5 across more than 800 reviews
- SOC 2 Type 2 attestation backs its security posture for partner and vendor due diligence
Watch-outs
- Chat and phone support are gated behind the paid Pro and Premier plans, so free users rely on help-center forms
- No published uptime SLA, and the security report is only available after signing an NDA
- Mixed external sentiment, with a notably lower G2 score of 4.2 versus its Capterra rating
