Shipduo Pricing & Plans Overview

Step 1: Overview of Shipduo Pricing


Shipduo offers a transparent and flexible pricing model that combines a subscription plan with shipment-based costs.

This approach allows businesses to choose whether to ship using Shipduo’s carrier network or their own carrier accounts, without hidden surprises.


Shipduo pricing includes:

  • A monthly subscription for platform access and integrations.
  • Per-shipment fees based on shipment type (Small Parcel or LTL).
  • Optional POS (Point of Sale) fees when using Shipduo’s real-time checkout rates.





Step 2: Subscription Plans


All Shipduo users must have an active subscription plan to access core platform features, including:


  • Shopify integration
  • Multi-carrier rate comparison
  • SmartPack optimization
  • Order and shipment tracking
  • Bulk fulfillment tools


Subscription plans may vary depending on:

  • Shipment volume
  • Carrier access
  • Feature requirements





Step 3: Shipment Costs (Per Order)


Shipduo applies a small, clearly defined fee to each shipment booked through the platform, based on shipment type.


Small Parcel Shipments

  • Fee: $0.07 (7 cents) per shipment
  • Applies to every parcel shipment.
  • Automatically included when booking or printing a shipping label.





LTL (Less-Than-Truckload) Shipments

  • If you use your own LTL carrier account, Shipduo charges a $10 handling fee per shipment.
  • If you use Shipduo’s partnered LTL carriers, no handling fee applies.


This fee covers:

  • Documentation processing
  • Bill of Lading (BOL) generation
  • Freight tracking and shipment management





Step 4: POS (Point of Sale) Checkout Fee


The POS fee applies only if you use Shipduo's Checkout feature on your Shopify store.


  • Shipduo displays real-time shipping rates at checkout.
  • If a customer selects a shipping rate but the shipment is not booked with Shipduo’s carrier, a POS fee applies.


This ensures fair usage of Shipduo’s live rate technology when bookings occur outside the platform.





Step 5: Using Your Own Carriers


Shipduo fully supports using your own carrier accounts, while clearly defining applicable handling costs.
