What's the monthly fee for activating the Carrier Service API on a Shopify plan?

Hi there,

My merchant is currently subscribing to Shopify Plan.
Recently, they have had a problem with shipping and chose a public app to integrate to. This app is required the merchant to activate Carrier Service API.

I’ve read this article and found this note: “If you’re on the Shopify plan, then you can add this feature for a monthly fee or switch from monthly to yearly billing. For more information, contact Shopify Support.”

My question are:

  1. If my merchant still subscribe to Shopify Plan, what would be the extra fee to be charged each month to activate this API?
  2. Does switching from monthly to yearly billing make this activation free for Shopify plan subscription?

I look forward to hearing back from you!
Irene

Hi Irene,

  1. You will have to pay $20 per month to get Carrier Service API.
  2. Yes. Yearly payment gets youCarrier Service API feature for free.

Additionally, you can use a free shipping calculator app like ShipMagic to save costs while setting up customised shipping for your store.
