Real-time Shipping

Learn about how to setup a real-time shipping account with UPS or USPS for use with our e-commerce services.

Rate Information (Real-Time)

You can set your store to fetch realtime shipping rates by registering with USPS and UPS. You can then enter your login and password information in order for real-time rates to work. Otherwise, set your shipping to be calculated either by the pound, or by price of the order.
