Shippo ‑ Simplified Shipping

Truly one of the worst apps out there.
If you never need to get ahold of support, never have any orders change, nothing more complex than ship one package. this is a great app.
If you do anything more than what a second grader could accomplish, this app is terrible.
It does not sync, it wont update, order statuses will not flow through, you cant change anything, you are unable to manually update orders, oh and if you want to connect to 'support', you can wait for a year, OR attempt to work with their horrible AI chatbot.

We used Shippo for years and paid extra for their shipping insurance, expecting support if a package was ever lost. Unfortunately, when we finally needed to file a claim, the process became nearly impossible. They required things like a police report for a lost package, which makes no sense in many situations and feels designed to discourage claims rather than help customers.

In our experience, the insurance felt almost useless because of how difficult they made the claim process. If a company sells insurance, customers should be able to reasonably use it when something goes wrong.

On top of that, after removing the Shippo app from our Shopify store, we were still charged $29/month for two additional months. That was very frustrating and disappointing.

The main reason we originally stayed with Shippo was for UPS Ground Saver rates, but Shopify now offers similar shipping options directly, so there is no longer a reason for us to continue using the platform.

Based on our experience, I would not recommend Shippo. The insurance claim process was extremely difficult, and the continued billing after uninstalling the app made the experience even worse.

Good place to ship standard items. If you are looking to ship tubes they really suck bad. You cannot enter girth so when you ship you will get charged a surcharge for your item. If you need to enter girth in order to ship better stay away otherwise you will get charged the surcharge.
Shippo does the ole well it was not our fault it was USPS's fault. You file a claim show proof your item was not oversize but you never get refunded for the overcharge. Support really sucks.

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.

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.

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!

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.

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 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.
