Shipping carriers
Canada Post
- You’ll need to run an End of Day transmission for contract customers.
- The End of Day will bill the default payment method on file with Canada Post.
- If you need to delete/void a label, do so before creating the End of Day transmission.
- If the manifest is already created, cancel the label directly via Canada Post online.
DHL
- DHL labels are charged once they enter the mail stream.
- Once the DHL representative scans the package, the cost will be billed to your account.
FedEx

Sendle
- For US accounts, the Sendle credit card on file is billed weekly on Sundays, Pacific Standard Time (PST) for all orders and billing adjustments (e.g., under-declared adjustments) in the previous week.
- For Australian accounts, the Sendle credit card on file is billed weekly on Monday, Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) for all orders and billing adjustments (e.g., under-declared adjustments) in the previous week.

USPS
- To create USPS labels, you must first have a pre-paid balance.
- See here on how to purchase postage in advance.
- The cost is deducted from your pre-paid balance as you create the labels. Therefore, you are charged when the label is generated.
- If you choose not to use the label, be sure to delete the label so you’ll receive a refund.
- See this help article for more details about USPS label refunds.
UPS Bring Your Own Account (BYOA)
- UPS charges you once you create the label.
