Setting up a UPS account in PitneyShip Pro
In order to ship with UPS, you first need to set up your UPS account in PitneyShip Pro. You can create a Pitney Bowes UPS Rate account and receive pre-negotiated rate discounts, or an account that is not a Pitney Bowes UPS Rate Account and does not receive our rate discounts.
Important: If you have more than one UPS account number, they must all be registered under a single UPS profile (username) in order to comply with UPS's security standards.
The features and options you see may vary depending upon your role and subscription. If you have any questions regarding your permissions, please contact your administrator.
