How does this Plugin work?
Top Features
Get Live Shipping Rates
Based on the product weight, box dimensions, shipping destination, etc., this Stamps.com WooCommerce Shipping Plugin fetches USPS shipping rates from your Stamps.com account for domestic and international shipping services.
You can choose to return list rates or account / negotiated rates. There is also an option to set conversion value in case the shop uses a different currency.
Show Estimated Delivery Date
Display the estimated delivery date on the cart page based on your working days as well as the cut-off time. If an order is placed after the cut-off time, it will be shipped on the next working day.
Print Shipping Labels
You can create a shipment by clicking on the ‘create shipment’ button on the order details page. Shipment details would automatically be sent to the Stamps.com online account and then the shipping label (GIF / JPG / PDF) would be generated which you can print.
Postage is automatically paid on these labels using your Stamps.com account. There is an option to change the shipping service and box/parcel dimensions (if enabled in the plugin settings) manually before generating the label.
This Stamps.com Shipping Plugin integrates with Stamps.com APIs to print domestic or international shipping labels with a tracking barcode.
Live Shipment Tracking
The tracking number returned from Stamps.com while generating the label will be added to order notes and will be sent as part of the order completion email. This enables shipment tracking for customers and shop owners.
Parcel Packing with Multiple Options
Based on the weights and dimensions of the products in the cart, the rate will be calculated and applied to the final price of the order. Once the order is placed, the items will then be automatically packed into the configured boxes.
You can choose from the following Packing options:
- Individual Item Packing
- Pack Into Custom Boxes with Weights and Dimensions
- Weight-Based (You can pack heavier items first, lighter items first, or pack purely divided by weight)
Further, under the Weight and Dimension-based packing method, you have two packing algorithms; Volume-based and Stack First algorithms.
Not only this, but you can configure how the unpacked items have to be processed.
Flat Rate Boxes
Flat Rate Boxes cost you a fixed price as long as the parcel weighs less than 70 lbs. The boxes come in multiple sizes which makes them suitable for products of different sizes and weights. These are easily available and are economical packing materials.
USPS Services for Real Time Rates
Stamps.com uses USPS API to access real time rates. This Stamps.com Shipping Plugin supports all the latest USPS domestic and international services.
Price Adjustments
Configure handling fees for each shipping service, in terms of amount or percentage value. A positive value results in markup, whereas a negative value results in a discount.
Stamps Parcel Guard Integration
Parcel Guard is a package delivery security solution offered by Stamps.com that allows customers to receive and manage their packages securely. The ELEX Stamps.com Shipping Plugin integrates with Stamps Parcel Guard to offer customers peace of mind and package protection against theft and damage.
Add the Custom Reference Number for Seamless Shipments
Feed your shipper tax registration number to create shipments to any country that are barrier-free for your customers. This number will be printed on the shipping labels, which makes the customs process easier.
Enhance Features with Add Ons
Print shipping labels in Bulk
Auto-generate and email your shipping labels
Schedule a USPS Pickup with Stamps.com
Using the Stamps.com-USPS Pickup Request Add-On, you can easily schedule a Manual or Automatic USPS Pickup with Stamps.com for your packages. Once you schedule a request, a confirmation number is returned from USPS that allows you to uniquely identify the request.
After the pickup request is scheduled, you can view a confirmation number returned from USPS, the Date of Creation of the Request, Pickup Date, Pickup Day, and Package Information.
Offer Shipsurance Shipping Insurance
Using WooCommerce Shipsurance Add-On for Shipping Method Plugins, you can offer Shipsurance shipping insurance as an additional layer of protection against damages caused while shipping. It works independently with any shipping carrier service plugins and does not require any external activations.

Frequently Asked Questions
After the plugin’s one year license expires, the plugin will continue to work as usual, but the download permission will be revoked. So, the updates for the plugin will stop.
Yes, you can disable the Real-time rates option in the plugin settings and use the plugin only to create Shipment labels.
The ELEX USPS service works if the ‘ship from address’ is US. It will not work if you have a ship from an address outside of the US.
Yes, Once the labels are generated, you need to mark the order as completed. Make sure you have enabled the email service enabled in the WooCommerce settings for order completion.
Yes, for maintaining the stamps account you have to pay a monthly fee. But their postage charges are lower compared to USPS retail rates.
Unfortunately, this feature is not available in the Stamps plugin since the API only returns discounted rates. But you can use the Price adjustment field in the plugin settings to increase the shipping cost by a fixed value or percentage.
The plugin supports PNG, GIF, JPG & PDF formats. PDF is the most popular format among our customers. The plugin supports most of the layout supported by Stamps.com. This includes 4×6, 6×4, 75×2, etc.
Yes, you can use our ELEX Stamps.com USPS Auto-Generate & Email Labels Add-On to automatically create shipments and generate labels. The add-on will also send an email notification to the shop owner and customers.

Yes, you can change it from the WooCommerce order page after generating the packages by selecting the preferred services from the eligible options available.
You need to open a Stamps.com account and add billing information in your Stamps account. Use the login username and password in the plugin settings.
The API will automatically hide the first class option when order’s total weight is over 16oz. But make sure you use the packing option as ‘Pack based on weight’ or ‘Pack into boxes with weight and dimension’. If you select ‘Individual item packing’ and a few of the products’ weights qualify for first class, the First class option will still show up as an option.
Although this plugin allows you to create shipments in bulk in the WooCommerce Orders page, we recommend using our bulk label printing add-on, as it creates multiple shipments at once and prints all the shipping labels in a single PDF file.
This is not possible with the plugin since the plugin already has the print label feature within the plugin.
Yes, the plugin is compatible. If you have the weight set in the TM Extra product plugin, it can retrieve the weight from there as well.
Yes. We have an option in the plugin which allows you to charge the customer for insurance. Insurance provides coverage in the event that the packages are lost or damaged while in transit.
Yes, our Stamps.com plugin is compatible with the WooCommerce Product Bundles plugin.
Yes, the plugin works with multi-vendor plugins by associating with WooCommerce Multi-Vendor Support for ELEX Shipping Plugins.
