How to connect Shippo
- Go to Workspace Settings > Account Settings.

- You will be redirected to Shippo to authorize the connection via OAuth.
- Once authorized, you are redirected back to SampleHQ with the connection active.
What the connection enables
- Real-time rate shopping across carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and more)
- Shipping label purchase and generation directly from order details
- Automatic tracking updates via Shippo webhooks
- Address validation before shipping
- Batch label creation for multiple orders
Carrier accounts
Shippo gives you access to discounted rates through their carrier accounts. If you have your own carrier accounts (e.g., a negotiated UPS rate), you can add them in your Shippo dashboard and they will be available for rate comparison in SampleHQ.
