USPS

The Carrier You Know. The Platform That Delivers.

USPS is one of the most trusted and widely used carriers in the country. Our WMS connects to it directly through USPS's modern REST API. Access every major mail class, bring your own negotiated rates, and put the full power of ShipHero's fulfillment platform behind every shipment.

Features

Why ShipHero customers choose USPS with ShipHero

01
A direct connection to USPS's modern platform

ShipHero's USPS integration is built on the carrier's latest REST API with OAuth 2.0 authentication, not a legacy connection or a middleware workaround. That means faster rate requests, more reliable label generation, and a foundation built to keep pace with USPS platform updates. Your team gets a cleaner, more responsive experience from rate shopping through to dispatch.

02
Every major mail class, fully supported

Ground Advantage, Priority Mail, First Class, and international services are all available within ShipHero. You're not limited to a subset of the portfolio. The full range of USPS services is accessible from a single platform, so you can pick the right service for every order without leaving your workflow.

03
Rate and label requests built for speed

ShipHero's connection to the USPS REST API delivers rate and label responses significantly faster than integrations built on older USPS platforms. During high-volume periods like Peak Season or flash sales, that speed compounds across thousands of shipments and keeps your packing floor moving.

04
Advanced services included as standard

Address validation, customs forms, signature confirmation, manifests, and special services are all supported. Rather than optional add-ons, these are re part of the integration, available across all ShipHero platform tiers (Core, Cheapest, BulkShip, and Wholesale Earth) so you can fulfill with precision regardless of order complexity.

05
Bring your NSA, ship at your rates

If you have a Negotiated Service Agreement with USPS, ShipHero supports full NSA integration. Your contract pricing applies automatically across every shipmen. No manual overrides, no rate discrepancies. Brands and 3PLs managing multiple clients can keep each account's pricing separate and accurate.
