UPS shipping for your online store

Shipi connects your store to your UPS account through the UPS OAuth APIs. Shoppers see UPS prices and transit times at checkout, including your negotiated rates and UPS Simple Rate, and you print labels and return labels from your order list.

Common questions

Where do I get UPS API credentials?

Create an app on the UPS Developer Portal, link your UPS account number and copy the client ID and secret into Shipi.

Do I need my own UPS account?

Yes. You open a business account with UPS and enter its credentials in Shipi (UPS OAuth client ID and secret and UPS account number). You keep your negotiated rates and pay Shipi only for the software. If you get stuck on the credential step, our team will set it up with you.

Can I use UPS alongside other carriers?

Yes. Add as many carriers as you need to one Shipi account and choose per order, or set shipping rules that decide which options appear at checkout.

Which store platforms does this work with?

Any store you connect to Shipi: WooCommerce, Shopify, Wix, BigCommerce, OpenCart and PrestaShop. The carrier setup is the same on every platform.
