Creating a Shipment

How do I get rates and create a label?
In your dashboard, click "New Shipment". Enter origin and destination addresses, dimensions, and weight. Rates appear instantly. Select a carrier and proceed to payment.
How does pricing work?
ShipSmarter negotiates discounted rates with carriers and shows you the final price before you confirm: no hidden fees, no surprises on your invoice.
Can I ship from outside Canada?
Yes, in supported markets. Choose your shipping origin in the country selector, then enter your origin, destination and parcel details to check available services. Carriers, rates, pickups and features vary by country, route and account. A country page does not guarantee every service on every route.

After creation, the label is immediately available under "My Shipments". Click "Download" or "Print".

Billing & Payment

What payment methods are accepted?
Credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex) via Stripe. Crypto and PayPal payments are also available.
Where can I find my invoices?
In your dashboard → "Invoices". Each shipment generates a downloadable PDF invoice.
