We love pirate ship, great customer service when we need it, easy to navigate and simple integration into shopify.

— Kafiex Roasters

There's something genuinely pleasant about Pirate Ship... beyond their low prices and ease-of-use, they have a way of seeming like the only ship on a sea of other services, and in that, like an intermediary between me and shipping, rather than a hazard or an adversary. It's branding, but it works, and like I said, it's cheap and simple.

— The Jacob Milstein Shop

Excellent product. They have amazing customer service for any issues you have along the way. The pricing for UPS is way below the retail price, and their software is easy to use. It connects seamlessly with Shopify. You cannot go wrong with Pirate Ship (plus their communications are hilarious!).

— Blue Toby Sustainable Pet Bed System

We've relied on Pirate Ship since we launched, and they've felt less like a vendor and more like a true partner. Their customer service is fantastic, and the money we've saved on shipping has made a real difference for our business. Couldn't recommend them more

— Health First Snack

As a small business owner, I need shipping to be simple, affordable, and reliable—and Pirate Ship delivers on all three. The platform is incredibly easy to use, the discounted shipping rates help me keep costs under control, and there are no monthly fees or unnecessary complications. Pirate Ship has made shipping orders much less stressful and has become an important tool for my business. I would...

I have saved so much money with Pirate Ship! I wish I had signed up earlier. I loved the way they integrate with Shopify. Their website is very easy to use and makes my job easier, makes my business run smoother.

— Live Oak Shop

The best. Great CS and great all around. You can't go wrong.

— COLMANTS Fishing Lures

A couple of years ago, a fellow business-owner recommended I try Pirate Ship, so I did, and I've never looked back! Super-easy to use. Integrates with my Shopify store seamlessly. Saves me significant money over taking my orders directly to UPS or the post office. And they write the best emails ev-arrrrrr! ;) Five of five stars, highly recommend!

— Thy Word In My Heart

Love that it imports names and addresses directly from Shopify!

— I Heart Tshirts

I have used Pirate Ship since I started my business, before they connected with Shopify and I was thrilled! I love how easy it is to get the customers information for shipping and they have saved me tons of money on shipping! As long as there's a Pirate Ship, I will be a customer!

— Rooted in Clay DMS

there should be an option to disable autosync of the tracking number from pirateship to shopify when we create lable. WHy you guys dont add this fucntionality. it is very simple. I am thinking to stop using pirateship because you dont have that option. Please dont ask me why i need this functionality. There is a reason i need it.

— HATKE BRIDE

Download only if you're comfortable dealing with a maze of an APP... As someone who has been in technology for 2 decades, I find this App near impossible to navigate and customize. The whole process of having to assign packages and carrier services to orders is a nightmare and extremely inefficient. On top of that, their support failed to provide the basic support need. needless to say, this was a...

— Honey Lemonade

LOVE pirate ship for it's ease of use and reliability. I have used many shipping tools and this one is a must have.

— The Cloud Makers

Best company for shipping rates, I tried them all and this one is really the best one

— Whisker Bark

Great app, excellent customer service. Saves us a ton of money every month!

— Sputnik Coffee Company

I've been using Pirate Ship in my business since 2021. I love being able to save $$ every time I ship a package!

— Come By Noon

IT JUST WORKS! Whenever I use other (paid) platforms for shipping, I occasionally run into a system error that lasts the whole day. Inevitably this is always on a Monday afternoon and I am swapped with orders to ship. I have been using Priateship for years and never once had the app give me an error. Plus the support has always been quick to respond and always answered my questions. The only...

— Dishwasherreplacementparts

Pirateship is so easy to use with my Shopify account! Makes printing my labels go fast! I love that it adds the tracking info for me so I dont have to do that for every single order!
