Easyship suits online merchants and other shippers who want order management, label generation, tracking, or multi-carrier shipping through an app or API. The Free plan is listed for fewer than 50 shipments per month.

Overview

Easyship is a shipping platform and API for merchants that want to compare carriers and coordinate order fulfillment across sales channels. It is best suited to businesses shipping regularly, especially those handling international orders; its broad carrier network is a strong draw, but plan thresholds and shipping restrictions matter.

It brings rate comparison, order syncing, labels, tracking and customs paperwork into one workflow. Easyship does not include a returns portal, so merchants that need customers to manage returns through a dedicated portal should look elsewhere.

Key features

Carrier choice and order handling

Easyship compares more than 550 courier services in one account and advertises rates up to 91% below retail prices. That breadth can make it easier to weigh delivery options without managing separate carrier accounts, although the advertised maximum is not a promise of that discount on every shipment. Orders can sync from connected stores; users can create labels individually or in bulk, provide branded tracking, send delivery updates and generate customs documents.

Native integrations include Shopify, WooCommerce, WIX, Squarespace, eBay, Amazon and TikTok Shop, alongside more than 55 other eCommerce and marketplace platforms. That range makes the platform a plausible fit for merchants selling across multiple channels. Easyship supports shipping from more than 50 origin countries to over 200 destinations, with import tax and duty calculation for cross-border workflows.

API and reliability

The Open Shipping API covers multi-carrier rates, domestic and international address validation, HS codes, tax and duty calculations, and third-party tracking. Advanced API use on the Free plan is pay-as-you-go; paid plans include monthly successful-call allocations, with per-call overage charges that do not block access. That avoids a hard stop when usage exceeds the allowance, but makes monitoring call volume important.

Easyship states 99.99% platform uptime and describes its shipping analytics infrastructure as SOC 2 and GDPR compliant with 99.9% uptime. It advertises 24/7 global support for integrations, while 24/7 phone support is reserved for Premier.

Shipping restrictions

Easyship prohibits items including alcohol, ammunition, firearms, tobacco, prescription pharmaceuticals, explosives, flammable or hazardous products, and counterfeit goods. Businesses shipping regulated or restricted merchandise should confirm that their catalog fits before adopting the platform.

Pricing

Easyship uses a freemium model, with a free plan and a 14-day trial. Its shipping plans are organized around monthly shipment volume, while the Scale plans are aimed at API usage.

• Free — free: Free forever, for less than 50 shipments per month. Includes discounted shipping rates, intelligent courier selection, import tax and duty calculation, and smart box selection. It is a useful starting point for low-volume shippers, but it lacks the higher-volume workflow features and paid API allocations.
• Plus — $29 a month: From $29/month, with annual billing saving 20%. Covers 50–500 shipments per month and adds rates at checkout, the ability to link a merchant’s own courier account, automatic order syncing and live chat. It suits growing stores that need checkout rates and a more connected workflow.
• Premier — $69 a month: From $69/month, with annual billing saving 20%. Covers 500–2,500 shipments per month and adds tax and duty display at checkout, pre-generated return labels, multi-box shipping and 24/7 phone support. The return labels are not a returns portal; Premier is better for higher-volume merchants needing these shipping tools than for those seeking a customer-facing returns system.
• Scale 1 — $99 a month: From $99/month, with 20,000 included Rates API calls, 1,250 non-US and 1,250 US address-validation calls, and 1,000 off-platform tracking calls.
• Scale 2 — $149 a month: From $149/month, with 30,000 Rates API calls, 1,875 non-US and 1,875 US address-validation calls, and 1,500 off-platform tracking calls.
• Scale 3 — $199 a month: From $199/month, with 40,000 Rates API calls, 2,500 non-US and 2,500 US address-validation calls, and 2,000 off-platform tracking calls. The stepped allocations make these plans relevant to API customers whose call needs fit the included quotas; overages are charged per call rather than cutting off access.
• Enterprise — custom pricing: A custom high-volume solution with dedicated support, alternative SLAs and specialized features. It is the option for larger operations that need a tailored arrangement rather than a published fixed tier.

Shipment limits distinguish the Free, Plus and Premier tiers, so a merchant approaching a threshold should consider the next plan before volume grows. The plan terms do not state a seat allowance, so team-size comparisons cannot be made on that basis.

Platforms

Easyship is available on Android, iOS and web, and provides an API for integrations and shipping workflows.

Who it's for

Easyship fits eCommerce merchants, small businesses, startups and enterprise brands that want carrier comparison alongside order and shipping workflows. Its multi-channel integrations and international coverage are especially relevant to stores shipping across borders. Low-volume sellers can start on Free, while higher-volume merchants can select a shipping tier or API plan aligned with their usage. It is a weaker fit for shippers whose products fall under its prohibited-item rules or who require a returns portal.

Pros and cons

• Pro: More than 550 courier services are accessible from one account, giving merchants a broad base for comparing shipping options.
• Pro: Store integrations, order syncing, bulk labels, tracking and customs documents connect several routine shipping tasks in one workflow.
• Pro: The free tier supports fewer than 50 shipments monthly, providing a no-cost entry point for small-volume use.
• Con: Shipping plans have monthly shipment thresholds, so growing merchants may need to move to a higher-priced tier.
• Con: There is no returns portal, despite Premier including pre-generated return labels.
• Con: The prohibited-item list excludes several product categories, including hazardous goods and prescription pharmaceuticals.

Alternatives

Consider 17TRACK Business when tracking is the priority: its free plan covers 50 shipments per month and includes a customizable tracking page and tracking-number redirection.

Shiprocket is another freemium option, with a Lite plan allowing up to 60 shipments monthly, one sales channel and one user account; its listed shipping starts at Rs 26/500gms.

Veeqo is worth comparing for a free shipping plan that includes unlimited orders, users, products and SKUs, warehouses and locations.

NimbusPost may suit businesses comparing per-shipment pricing: its Essential plan is ₹25.51 per 500g shipment and covers up to 300 orders per month with multi-channel integration and automated order sync.

SendIt is an alternative for teams that want unlimited orders and team profiles on a Business plan priced at ₹1,000 a month, plus ₹4/order.

Shippit offers Plus at $499 a month for up to 99,000 bookings and up to five carriers; it may suit a high-booking operation that wants those stated limits.

Ordoro is an alternative for merchants comparing order-based tiers, including an Advanced plan at $59 a month and an Essential tier capped at 100 orders, one sales channel, one ship-from location and one user.

Sendcloud may be a better match for a small parcel volume: its free plan allows up to 20 parcels per month without a subscription fee or courier contract requirement.

Verdict

Easyship is a strong choice for merchants that want broad courier comparison, connected order workflows and international shipping support in one platform. Its Free plan lowers the barrier to trying a low-volume workflow, while higher tiers add checkout, shipping and API capacity as needs grow. Choose another platform if you need a returns portal, ship prohibited categories, or cannot make the volume-based plan limits work for your operation.
