Shippo is the simplest upgrade path for a small store that has outgrown buying labels one by one. The free Starter plan already includes discounted USPS, UPS, FedEx and DHL Express labels, unlimited store connections, international shipping, automations, return labels, tracking and reporting, capped at 30 labels a month and one user. Pro starts at $17 a month for up to 200 labels, or $205 a year, and steps up by volume to 10,000 labels. It removes the 5 cent fee on your own carrier accounts and adds branded tracking pages, notification emails and packing slips, AI estimated delivery dates, chat and phone support and up to 5 users. Shippo lists access to 40+ carriers and says it is trusted by 4.6M+ businesses. Compared with ShipStation it has fewer warehouse tools and no freight booking, and global address validation is billed per lookup. We compared documented features and published prices; Shippo is the strongest choice under $20 a month.
