FedEx Platform Account, now available through EasyPost, provides customers with a default FedEx account preloaded with special discounted rates, so businesses can ship with EasyPost and FedEx for less, right out of the box.

LEHI, Utah--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- EasyPost, the award-winning multi-carrier shipping API provider, is proud to announce a new program with FedEx which will offer a FedEx Platform Account to all EasyPost users including platform partners and their shippers. FedEx Platform Account is a default FedEx account that gives EasyPost customers special discounted FedEx rates without the need to create a separate FedEx account. This is a great option for our small business shippers who would not be able to access these rates otherwise.

EasyPost customers will automatically receive access to three discounted service levels through their FedEx Platform Account:

  • FedEx Ground Economy®, which provides a cost-effective way for businesses to ship low-weight packages within the contiguous U.S. in 2-7 business days.
  • FedEx Ground® Returns, a U.S. domestic service that allows merchants to get returned products back in their inventory and process customers' refunds quicker with fast and affordable delivery options. Merchants can include pre-printed return labels in packages or offer convenient options like emailed QR code return labels.
  • FedEx International Connect Plus®, which can help businesses reach international markets with delivery within 2-5 business days and reliable FedEx tracking. Businesses can expect to receive significant savings with these rates.

“We’re very excited about our relationship with FedEx,” said John Campo, VP of Carrier Relations. “FedEx Platform Account will be a fantastic option for our SMB customers to save on cost without compromising on quality shipping.”

FedEx is equally excited about the relationship and how it can enable all businesses to save on both U.S. domestic and international shipping.

“Building upon our already strong relationship with EasyPost will allow more seamless access for small- and medium-sized businesses to leverage parcel solutions at FedEx,” said Ryan Kelly, Vice President of Marketing at FedEx. EasyPost was recently recognized by FedEx with its highest designation of Diamond Tier in this year’s FedEx Compatible Solutions Program Tier rankings as well as winning the Solution of the Year.
