Pitney Bowes UPS Rates account (All subscription levels)

No matter which type of ShipAccel subscription you have, you will be able to set up a Pitney Bowes UPS Rates account. With this type of UPS account, Pitney Bowes charges your credit card on file for each UPS label you print and forwards those payments on to UPS. You do not need to have your own UPS account. Credit card fees are shown below the label cost on the Create Shipping Label screen. Fees vary by location.
