Shippo ‑ Simplified Shipping

Oct. 13, 2025

Doesn't integrate with your product's customs information. All international shipping will require manual entry. This seams like an easy fix and if they can, I would like to give them another try. I like the ability to use our own shipping accounts. Still looking for a viable shipping solution for my store.

Prices are higher then what shopify already offers. I am looking for customer solution prices show itself are for retail not business.

I’ve been struggling with the same shipping issue for over 4 months and Shippo has failed to resolve it. Despite shipping thousands of orders to Canada each quarter, I was told by support that I’m the only customer in the world with this problem — which is hard to believe. The last update I received from Scott in customer service was that it would ‘take time’ for technical to look into it, but since then my account has been completely ignored. No follow-up, no resolution, no accountability. This is unacceptable for a company that handles critical shipping operations. My business relies on reliable shipping software, and Shippo has shown neither reliability nor adequate customer support.

We would not recommend this particular app over others. It has hidden fees. We have closed our account. We wish others luck with such issues.

If you enjoy stress, insomnia, and shouting “REPRESENTATIVE!!!” at your screen until your neighbors call for a wellness check — by all means, sign up. Otherwise? Run. Flee. There are literally thousands of better options out there. I’d get better customer service from a haunted vending machine. Zero stars. Negative stars. Stars have died over this.

They don’t respond to inquiries. I gave them a whole day, and they didn’t reply.

Complaint Against:** XCover and GoShippo Date of Incident:** 09/16/2024 Insured Value:** $8,544.00 XCover Insurance ID:** 8----M------INS Created By:** J. L. I have been using GoShippo for 5 years, shipping millions of dollars in jewelry and paying thousands of dollars in insurance premiums. On September 16, 2024, I purchased a shipping label through GoShippo with UPS for a package insured for $8,544.00. The package showed as delivered, but no one signed for it. UPS confirmed that the package was lost, and XCover initially agreed to pay out the claim. However, when it came time to pay the full value that I had insured, XCover sent me a breakdown of the payment that was never disclosed when I purchased the insurance. They claimed that their policy terms had changed on January 1st, 2024, without notifying us. Here is the payment breakdown they provided: - **Cost of goods:** $8,544.00 - **Deductible:** $1,250.00 - **Subtotal:** $8,544.00 - **Cover limit:** $5,000.00 - **Total approved amount:** $3,750.00 Nowhere during the insurance purchase process was there any mention of a deductible or a coverage limit. GoShippo and XCover require customers to enter the total value of the product when purchasing insurance, implying that the full amount would be covered. This misleading practice has resulted in a significant shortfall of $4,794.00 in coverage. I demand that XCover and GoShippo honor the full insured value of the necklace as per the insurance I paid for. If this issue is not resolved immediately and fully, I will be forced to pursue legal action for bad faith insurance practices against both GoShippo and XCover. I expect a swift resolution and full payment of the insured value.

I have tried to use their trial and hopefully switch to Shippo instead of our existing provider but they don't accept 'prepaid' cards. The card I am attempting to use is not a prepaid card, it is a Mastercard provided by Tide with whom we have our BUSINESS CURRENT account with!

used to be free and they made money from the purchase of labels. Now they are trying to charge a monthly fee on top of that. Going back to shopify shipping since shippo does not provide any more value than what is already built into shopfiy. Thanks for the reply but we already found another service that does charge a monthly fee. Have been very happy with pirate ship.

Do not under any circumstances, use this company and their insurance services. They work with an insurance company called XCOVER that should be reported to the BBB. They will take months to respond to claims and request a ridiculous amount of documents just to decline for any small reason or any reason hidden in their policy clauses. They have zero customer service email and phone number so you cannot even contact them in any shape or form. I have LOST THOUSANDS of dollars thanks to this company I have shipped 100,000+ packages with shippo but this XCOVER company has made it impossible to do any business online. I no longer use SHIPPO because of this and cannot recommend it to anyone. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY.

Realized that Shippo was no cheaper than my Shopify Plan and discontinued usage. I thought I had downgraded my plan but then I was charged nearly 400 dollars for their "premium plan," which is literally the same cost as shipping via Shopify shipping. I've asked for a refund because I never once used the service, but have been ignored for 3 days now.

ive been with shippo since 2019, and as of today.. im tired of paying money to a company, when in return i have to fix the problems their software creates... whats the point.. ending the service

Having a lot of problems with your software. It keeps trying to print labels for overnight shipping a day late. We pic the 27th so ship out priority overnight and the label prints out the 29th for delivery. Seems to happen right at 4pm local time here all of a sudden instead of next day arrival the labels print out for the day after they are supposed to arrive when using priority overnight via FedEx. This is causing us a have to hand print labels right at the end of the day when we are in a hurry. Please address this problem ASAP or we will have to find a different shipping app.

I have been a Shippo customer for about 8 months. At first, I was really impressed. I thought the customer support was excellent. The service was good and relatively easy to use. For me, the Live Chat feature was absolutely critical. Over the course of the past 5 months they have entirely dismantled the live chat. Now it's all email support. So for shipping issues, that just does not work at all. Shipping issues must be resolved pretty quickly. Waiting for a few days for someone to reply by email is a total deal breaker. I don't know why they removed the best feature of this app... Go figure. I'm looking at other platforms again. I really liked this app for about 4 months. Then the customer service fell off a cliff.

I have been using Shippo for a couple of months. Recently i had to provide return labels for my customers which i purchased through Shippo. When the customers used the return labels, UPS still charged me for freighter because they stated that they had no record of Shippo pre purchased labels. I have been following up with Shippo for weeks now with no resolve, Initially they tried to deflect and stated that was being charged for brokerage and import fees when there was clearly freighter charges indicated in the invoice. Then i asked them to refund the pre paid labels i purchased through them since UPS still charged me. They promised to get back to me and it has been weeks of nothing. As a small business, the people that you work with should help build your business not create problems & charges for you. Sad to say that this has been the case with Shippo.

I wanted to like this app as its features look great on paper. We couldn't get it up and running though, because they require a photo of the shipper's government-issued ID and a photo of the shipper him/herself before activating the app. I didn't really want to send them copies of my driver's license/passport, and I for sure didn't want them stored on their servers. When I asked their support (which is pretty responsive) why they needed this when no other label sellers we've worked with do, and how long this information is stored they didn't have a clear answer. Their website says things like "We receive and store any information you knowingly provide to us" and "Some information may remain in our records after the deactivation of your account" and "...unless the business that requested your verification has deleted it, Stripe (Shippo's verification provider) will retain copies of your submitted identity data-the images of you and your ID as well as any typed or extracted data and the verification results and insights..." I couldn't find anywhere in their privacy policy a mention of them deleting this information after verification, and their support couldn't point to such a mention in their policy. So no Shippo for us, we're now trying another app for labels that doesn't require a photo ID.

I don't recommend this app if you are thinking to automate the returns process. We spent over $2000 on the unmanifest articles because they are not able to pass the article details. I have given 2 months to fix the issue but they couldn't, now I need to accept the loss and find something else.

Rates "mysteriously" increase by $70-100 without explanation. Not well priced. I was planning on using it, but this seems sketch.

Better off going with Shipstation. Took a while to get all of our accounts setup (Fedex, UPS, USPS, etc). Worked fine for a bit, but then it stopped syncing our orders started receiving error messages. Their support was dumbfounded for several weeks and kept telling me that they had escalated the issue. After waiting for over a month to see a resolution, I finally uninstalled the program and have went to shipstation. Have not had an issue with them. In fact they offer more shipping options that Shippo did not, which saves me more money in the long run. Shippo . . . I hope you guys can figure out some better IT support. A small medium business cannot operate if your shipping software does not work for over a month.

So many bugs!! loads completely too slow to make labels. spent over $900 on labels just for it to freeze and could not find it in either unfulfilled or fulfilled columns. now i have to print one by one in the shipments column with no packaging slip + it doesn't list them in order and has no option to do do or batch print them. very annoying! there is no phone or chat to contact them when a situation like this is urgent and needed to get orders out, no one contacted me until about 5-6 hours later. also, they do not print the order number on label so it is very hard to track which order is which. going to use another shipping app. this is ridiculous!!
