The report card
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.
| Subject | Grade | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | B | No membership or monthly fee, and you pay discounted postage per label. The savings of 50% to 85% are the vendor's claim against a national carrier's standard rate. |
| Free plan and trial | B | Free to join with no monthly fee, so one person can use it without a subscription. Postage is paid per shipment, in Canadian dollars. |
| Features | C | Discounted rates, store integrations, an API, pickups and Amazon FBA shipping. It is only for e-commerce sales, and personal goods are refused unless going to Amazon FBA. |
| Ease of use | C | No store rating is on record. Store connections have to be set up, and some labels need a thermal printer. |
| Platforms and integrations | B | Web, with Amazon, Shopify, Etsy, eBay, WooCommerce, BigCommerce and an API. No phone or desktop app. |
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 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 it is not for

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
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.
