In the intricate world of eCommerce, addressing a seemingly small detail can lead to substantial savings and efficiency. Enter ShipperHQ’s Address Validation – a tool pivotal for any online business aiming to optimize shipping processes, enhance customer satisfaction, and boost profits.
The High Cost of Address Correction and How ShipperHQ Alleviates It
Did you know address correction charges by UPS and FedEx can go up to $22.50 per package? This adds up quickly, especially if you’re managing a high volume of shipments. ShipperHQ’s Address Validation feature emerges as a crucial asset in mitigating these costs.
Our Address Validation feature works with UPS or FedEx to validate customers’ addresses in the US and Canada specifically. So, as long as you have one of those carriers set up with us, this can be used for any carrier on your ShipperHQ account.
