- Extra users are sold in bundles of three at the plan's monthly price.
- ShipRush does not show customer-facing shipping rates at checkout.
- A service fee may apply when buying labels with a credit card on some discounted-rate programs.

## Keep it, or make your own?

**Keep it.** To replace ShipRush 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 $119.40 a year.

- You could not: Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- You could not: Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
- You could not: Scanning barcodes with a phone camera or a scanner.
