Part 01 · Overview
Welcome
What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first
2.4
GPA, above 19 of the 33 other shipping software we grade
Ship&Co connects online stores to Japanese and international carriers so labels can be created in a few clicks and tracking sent back to the store. It is offered as a web app and as a REST API for warehouses, 3PLs and platforms. Sellers use their own carrier accounts and negotiated rates.
To get you started, here are 9 things to know about Ship&Co, taken from its own pages and our grades.
You connect your carrier accounts and stores, so it is a C.
- 1
Best for shipping labels from Japan
Ship&Co prints shipping labels for online sellers, with orders imported from stores and carriers across Japan and abroad.
- 2
Paid plans start at $8 a month
As its pricing page puts it: $8 per month for up to 50 labels, plus $0.17 per label.

The report card
Best for shipping labels from Japan
Ship&Co prints shipping labels for online sellers, with orders imported from stores and carriers across Japan and abroad. It is $8 a month plus $0.17 a label at the start, which is about $16.50 for 50 labels, and it is built around shipping from Japan.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | $8 a month plus $0.17 a label, about $16.50 for 50 labels, which is inside the cheapest quarter of shipping tools. |
| Free plan and trial | C | 30-day trial with no card. No free plan afterwards. |
| Features | C | Order import, carrier labels, customs documents, duty choices and an API. Which label and bulk features work depends on the carrier. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating on record. You connect your carrier accounts and stores, so it is a C. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web only, but with Shopify, eBay, Amazon, BASE, WooCommerce, Etsy, Yamato, Sagawa and an API. |
An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.
Who Ship&Co is for
- Fits if you ship from Japan and want labels and customs forms from one place
- Works for small sellers with a few dozen parcels a month
Who it is not for
- Not for you if you ship from outside Japan: the site is built around it
- Watch out: carriers are billed separately, using your own accounts
- Pricey if volume grows: the monthly fee steps from $8 to $25 at 51 labels
- Watch out: prices are tax included and the dollar figures are converted from yen
Good to know
Good for
- Shopify and eBay sellers shipping from Japan
- Warehouses and 3PLs in Japan that run several carrier accounts
- Shippers who want to keep their own negotiated carrier rates
Worth knowing
- Pricing combines a monthly infrastructure fee with a per-label charge, so the monthly cost rises with volume; the page states prices tax included.
- Carriers are billed separately: the sender uses their own carrier accounts, apart from Japan Post International, which needs no carrier contract.
- The site is built around shipping from Japan, and which label and bulk features work depends on the carrier and service.
- The pricing page shows yen, dollar and euro figures; the dollar prices are used here.

Keep it, or make your own?
Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.
Keep it
To replace Ship&Co you would be making discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
It costs $96 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- It plugs into other products, Shopify, eBay and Amazon among them, and has an API.
What this rests on. Ship&Co’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
