PitneyShip

PitneyShip® is a comprehensive cloud-based shipping and mailing solution developed by Pitney Bowes to meet the evolving needs of modern businesses. Designed for flexibility, scalability, and cost-efficiency, PitneyShip empowers users to manage all aspects of shipping—from comparing carrier rates to printing postage and tracking deliveries—through a single, user-friendly interface. At its core, PitneyShip simplifies the logistics process by integrating multiple carriers, including USPS, UPS, and FedEx, into one platform. This allows users to compare shipping rates and delivery times across providers, ensuring they select the most cost-effective and timely option for each shipment. The software offers substantial discounts, with savings of up to 90% on FedEx rates, 88% on USPS Priority Mail, and 85% on UPS daily rates. These pre-negotiated rates are especially beneficial for small businesses that may not have the volume to negotiate directly with carriers. PitneyShip is available in three tiers—Office, Premium, and Enterprise—each tailored to different business sizes and needs. The Office plan supports one user and one location, ideal for solo entrepreneurs or small teams. Premium expands access to up to 10 users and includes features like Certified Mail with Electronic Return Receipt (ERR), while the Enterprise plan offers unlimited users and locations, API access, and full customization for large organizations. One of PitneyShip’s standout features is its mobile app, which enables users to capture addresses, print labels, and track packages from anywhere. This mobility ensures that shipping operations are not confined to a physical office, making it ideal for remote teams or businesses with distributed operations. Additionally, PitneyShip supports stamp printing and integrates with Pitney Bowes’ DeviceHub, which connects printers and scales for seamless label creation and postage management. The platform also includes automation tools and presets that streamline repetitive tasks, reducing manual input and minimizing errors. Users can schedule pickups, manage cost accounts, and generate detailed shipping reports to monitor expenses and performance. For businesses that rely on certified mail, PitneyShip offers built-in support for ERR, enhancing compliance and accountability. Security and reliability are central to PitneyShip’s design. The software supports single sign-on and integrates with existing business systems through APIs, ensuring smooth deployment and operation across various departments. Pitney Bowes also provides extensive support resources, including documentation, FAQs, and live assistance, to help users maximize the platform’s capabilities.

PitneyShip stands out in the crowded shipping software market due to its unique blend of affordability, flexibility, and enterprise-grade features. One of its most compelling advantages is the access it provides to deeply discounted shipping rates—up to 90% off FedEx and 88% off USPS Priority Mail. These savings are typically reserved for high-volume shippers, but PitneyShip democratizes access, allowing even small businesses to benefit from reduced costs. Unlike many competitors that focus solely on one carrier or require separate integrations for each, PitneyShip offers true multi-carrier support within a single platform. This enables users to compare rates and delivery times across USPS, UPS, and FedEx without switching tools or accounts. The built-in “Best Match” recommendation tool further simplifies decision-making by suggesting the most efficient and cost-effective shipping option based on user preferences. PitneyShip’s scalability is another key differentiator. While many shipping solutions cater only to either small businesses or large enterprises, PitneyShip offers tiered plans that grow with the user. From solo entrepreneurs using the Office plan to large corporations leveraging the Enterprise solution with API access and unlimited users, PitneyShip adapts to diverse operational needs. The mobile app integration is a significant edge in today’s remote and hybrid work environments. Users can manage shipments, print labels, and track packages from anywhere, ensuring business continuity and operational agility. This level of mobility is not commonly found in traditional shipping software.
