Connect Your Easypost Account

Overview
Packiyo integrates with Easypost to support shipping label creation. Through Easypost, you can access competitive carrier rates, or connect your own carrier accounts.

When you sign up using Packiyo's Easypost link, USPS and UPS rates provided through Packiyo's Easypost account are applied by default. If preferred, you can connect your own USPS or UPS accounts to use your own negotiated rates instead.
