Pirate Ship is my favorite shipping app of all time and I've tried numerous others. It integrates Shopify perfectly and since I have a high volume of shipments being able to create a scan form to include all the barcode into one is invaluable for my business. A+++ Thank you!

Easy to use and best prices on shipping. Pirate Ship integrates beautifully with our Shopify store. Orders are imported with their weights making getting shipping costs super easy. We can do large batches of orders at a time. Very efficient for getting the orders out! Also, fantastic customer service. If you have a question that isn't in their FAQ's, someone always gets on the chat fairly qu...

I've run a DTC / wholesale business for 30 years. We ship about 20 packages a day and Pirate Ship has been just excellent. You can link your Shopify and eBay stores via integration and the orders flow in seamlessly. You can also paste in full addresses. All our package sizes and weights are entered and everything is 1 click. I use Pirate Ship because Shopify is too lame to handle Dangerous...

Incredibly easy to set up and integrate with Shopify orders. This app is definitely a must have for any business that ships orders. Competitive shipping rates and great customer service.

I absolutely LOVE pirate ship! It always works, I recommend it to anyone that needs to ship anything. You don't need a subscription or extra fees, just the commercial label pricing is all you pay. I literally have helped so many people by recommending this app and I have been using it for years!

— FP Journals

Without pirate ship shipping would be a nightmare for us. Their services drastically cut down the time it takes to get shipments out the door as well as the cost per shipment. Really enjoy this platform and would recommend to everyone.

— Paradise Tactical

Pirate Ship has been a fantastic partner for us and our shop! Solid app, solid team, solid pricing, and solid support. Their customer support is extremely responsive and friendly, and has gotten back to us FAST at all sorts of odd hours, and their FAQ handles tons of stuff. Last but not least - we regularly get solid understandable pricing out of them - no subscriptions, no surprise fees. Any...

Pirate Ship makes it easy to find the best shipping rates, which is important to keep my pottery business afloat. The customer service has been great as well when I've had a few technical issues. Overall, I highly recommend their services!

Pirate Ship is so easy to use! I have used several programs for shipping and this is by far the best. Best in use, best in price!!

This is one of my favorite apps. It makes shipping anything super easy.

— SaraEnnis

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...

Phenomenal app/service. Love it! We need more like this. Been using it for years and it has been flawless. Would never use another app. Keep this app alive! Great customer service as well. Go PirateShip!

I used Pirate Ship long before moving to Shopify and the integration is easy and just works. Sales show up automatically, and I just need to click one button to start printing the labels. Having the carrier options laid out makes everything fast and simple. Highly recommended.

— Heartspell Media

Love the integration with shopify for fulfillment, and it's super easy to compare various shipping options. Highly satisfied.

— Skagit Woolen Works

I love this app and it has saved me so much time and money being able to process my packages at home and print the label. I never have any trouble when I drop it off to either UPS or USPS. I love seeing the options and delivery times as I chose which carrier to use. It is so simple to set up and use. A must have for any small business.

— Earthen Ardor

Pirate Ship is wonderful! I’ve been using for 7 years and in that time I’ve referred 2 of my vendors. To now have on Shopify saves me a step.

— The Traveling Yarn Yogi

I love this app! It integrates perfectly with Shopify. I've been using PirateShip since 2019 and have never had any issues. It has the best shipping prices and is easy to set up! I would definitely recommend PirateShip to all merchants!!

— Imperial Enterprises

I love using PirateShip! The shipping costs are competitive, the customer service is great. I've had to dispute some upcharges with USPS and it can be done right thru PirateShip (and I won!). And it's free ~ doesn't get better than that!
