Shipping Software for Retail Stores & Mail Centers

Modern shipping tools for counter-based operations

ShipDesk is shipping software designed for retail shipping stores, mail centers, and business service locations that process shipments in person. It provides a streamlined way to create labels, manage carrier options, and support walk-in customers at the counter.

ShipDesk is used as internal shipping software and is not a public marketplace or listing platform.

Built for In-Store Shipping Workflows

ShipDesk supports the realities of counter-based shipping.

Fast shipment creation for walk-in customers
Guided workflows to reduce errors
Address validation to improve delivery accuracy
Clear carrier and service selection

The system is designed to keep lines moving and transactions consistent.

Supported Carriers

ShipDesk supports shipping with major carriers commonly used by retail stores.

Carrier availability is controlled at the account level and based on proper configuration.

Carrier Account Requirements for Retail Stores

Retail shipping stores and mail centers may use a combination of ShipDesk-provided carrier options and their own carrier accounts, depending on the carrier.
ShipDesk does not act as a carrier or broker. All shipments are processed under the applicable carrier agreement.

FedEx Shipping

ShipDesk or own account

Retail stores may use ShipDesk-provided FedEx services or connect their own FedEx account, depending on configuration and eligibility.

All FedEx shipments are subject to the applicable FedEx terms and conditions.

UPS Shipping

Own account required

UPS services require the store’s own approved UPS account.
Retail shipping stores and mail centers using UPS through ShipDesk must connect and use their own UPS Authorized Shipping Outlet (ASO) account or other eligible UPS account type.
ShipDesk does not provide UPS accounts to retail stores and does not submit UPS shipments on a store’s behalf. All UPS shipments are processed and billed directly through the store’s connected UPS account.

USPS Shipping

ShipDesk or own account

Retail stores may use ShipDesk-provided USPS services, powered by Stamps.com, subject to eligibility and configuration.
