Integrate with Shipping Providers (like Pirate Ship) for physical products

Nick Daugherty
For anyone selling physical products through GHL, we need an integration with a shipping provider to get pricing on shipping and print shipping labels.
Here's a short list of companies who offer this:
- PirateShip.com (easy and free, API?)
- EasyPost.com (free)
- ShipStation.com ($9.99/mo)
- Stamps.com ($19.99/mo)
- Endicia.com ($19.99/mo)
- PitneyBowes.com ($14.99/mo)
Here's a list of basic features that would be helpful:
- Product setup - Specify which countries we ship to (and which we do NOT ship to)
- Product setup - Choose flat rate shipping or dynamic pricing, based on customer's address
- Product setup - Shipping insurance
- Product setup - Set our markup
- Checkout Page - Get shipping rates in real time, based on the customer's address
- Checkout Page - Address verification in real time
- After Checkout - Print a label, email it to location admin or save to contact's profile as custom field
- After Checkout - Receive tracking number and save to contact's profile as custom field
- Workflow - send tracking number to customer
- Optional: Have a "tracking widget" in the funnel builder that pulls real time updates from shipping API on page load

I did a little more research for anyone who needs this. Added a few more options (like goShippo.com) to the list. I've included the ones that work with Zapier.

Nick Daugherty: I could not get Ship Station to recognize the data from Zapier for this. Any suggestions?

EasyPost offers a White Label solution for their API - which could mean that as the agency admin, we could offer a built-in shipping integration to our clients. Might be interesting if GHL would connect in with this, and then we could resell at a markup, similar to Email, Phone, and AI - https://www.easypost.com/partner-solutions

Pirate Ship looks to be super simple and fun to use, but I don't believe they currently offer an API (or Zapier) in their list of integrations - https://www.pirateship.com/integrations/shipping
