Endicia Platinum Shipper gets you big savings on your shipping expenses by avoiding common surcharges and
taking advantage of postal alternatives, whether you use FedEx or UPS shipping software to send over 20 domestic or
just a few international packages a day.Platinum Shipper provides seamless access to these savings using Endicia address verification, residential and rural extended
area surcharge prediction, and USPS postage-paid shipping label generation and management. All this,
using the same software, hardware, process, and database integration you already have built with your
existing free carrier software. Platinum Shipper is offered through a
dealer channel.
Platinum Shipper sits alongside your carrier software
giving you seamless access to transportation savings. It uses Endicia's address verification
system to avoid bad addresses and surcharges which run $5-$10 per address. At the rate of 1-2% many customers report
for address corrections, these surcharges can add up to thousands of dollars of preventable
expenses. More importantly, Platinum Shipper alerts you to address corrections before you
ship, so you avoid delays in your shipments. Without this pre-shipment advice, most shippers
don't even know they're paying these charges. Click here for more savings
and advantages.
Platinum Shipper identifies addresses in residential &
extended areas before you ship. Commercial carriers can charge an extra $1.85-$4.05 per
package to these addresses, and you won’t know these charges until it's too late. Platinum Shipper lets
you see the true cost of shipping with the carrier and displays alternative US Postal Service shipping
rates. Now, you can make an informed decision on the fly, and if you decide to use postal shipping, you
can print an Endicia label with just a click of a button.
You don't have to change any of the accounting & database interfaces
you already have - you continue using your free carrier software as before, only now you have
access to postal savings with each package you ship.
Platinum Shipper works with
- FedEx ShipManager,
- UPS WorldShip®, and
- Kewill Clippership.

and you can get your shipments picked up.
