Behind the parcel

Where trust changes hands

Simple on purpose

Wholesale days can unravel over the smallest detail: who ships, how much, and when.
Drop Ship Authorization folds those decisions into one clean action at checkout.
Fees are transparent—$7.50 drop ship, $3.50 packaging, and a $24 shipping authorization—with credit card payment only.
You’ll only be billed what FedEx bills; less is refunded, more is confirmed with you before anything moves.

Fewer emails, faster arrivals

Your customer sees a seamless experience, and you keep control.
Use your own FedEx account by adding the number in checkout notes, or UPS with a possible pickup fee.
Tracking arrives in your inbox to pass along, so communication stays personal.
For oversize freight, we reach out first—no surprises on the dock.

For the calm operator

Wholesale partners who want us to ship directly to their customer while keeping costs transparent and communication tight.

How it fits your day

Add Drop Ship Authorization to the same cart as the item you’re sending to your customer, include carrier account notes if using your own, and forward the tracking we email once it ships.
