U.S. Postal Service Shipping Registration

Before you can configure and begin using U.S. Postal Service real-time shipping quotes, you must first establish a USPS Web Tools account and activate your Web Tools User ID for your ShopSite server.

Note:
If you already have an activated USPS Web Tools account, you can use your existing account and do not need to create a new one.
  1. Register with USPS - If you do not already have a USPS Web Tools account, go to the USPS Web Tools Registration site, and fill out the form. After you submit the form, you will receive an e-mail with your Web Tools ID and instructions for activating your account on the production servers. You do not need to do any of the testing outlined in the e-mail.
  2. Request Account Activation - Send an e-mail to USPS Customer Care to have your account activated. The original e-mail you received from USPS includes instructions and contact information to request they switch your profile to allow you access to the production server. Be sure to include the following information with the activation request:
  3. Enter Account Information in ShopSite - Go to the ShopSite back office U.S. Postal Service Registration screen and enter your Web Tools ID and Zip code in the fields provided.
  4. Save your Settings - Click Save to save your account information.

After you have saved your USPS Web Tools account information in ShopSite, you will be taken to the U.S. Postal Service Configuration screen.
