Perfect for small businesses starting out

Shippo's free plan was exactly what we needed when we started our coffee subscription service. The per-label pricing meant we didn't have to commit to a monthly fee before we knew our volume. Now we're on the Professional plan and it's still great value.
Powerful but has a learning curve

ShipStation has everything you need for multi-channel shipping. We sell on Amazon, eBay, and our own site, and it handles all three beautifully. The only downside is the initial setup - there are so many options that it can feel overwhelming.
Game-changer for our Shopify store

We switched from manually creating labels to ShipStation and it cut our shipping time by 75%. The automation rules alone are worth the subscription. We ship about 300 orders/month and the Growth plan is perfect.
Best free shipping tool - period

I've been using Pirate Ship for my Etsy shop for over a year now and I love it. It's truly free, the rates are the cheapest I've found anywhere, and their customer support is amazing. They even respond with pirate puns!
