Best for discounted postage from Canada
Stallion Express is free to join and sells discounted postage on each label for Canadian e-commerce sellers, with store integrations, an API and pickups in major cities. It accepts only e-commerce sales, and its savings claims are measured against a national carrier's standard rate.
Who Stallion Express is for
- Fits if you sell online from Canada and ship to the U.S.
- Works for stores on Shopify, Etsy or Amazon that want discounted labels
Who Stallion Express is not for
- Skip it if you ship personal items, as only e-commerce sales are accepted
- Watch out: UPS Economy and PostNL labels need a thermal printer
- Watch out: pickup is limited to major metro areas, with branch drop-off elsewhere
- Tight if you want rates in US dollars, since they are shown in CAD

Keep Stallion Express, or make your own?
Keep it
Stallion Express is free, so making your own would save you nothing.
And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 2.6 is higher than 62 of the 80 other shipping software we grade.
What you could not
- Discounted carrier rates and labels, which take an agreement with each carrier.
- Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
What this rests on. Stallion Express’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.
