Rates and carriers on GoatLabels

Live, all-in rates

When you create a shipment, GoatLabels quotes live all-in rates across supported services for your exact package — so you can compare carriers side by side and the price you see is the price your wallet is charged. Accurate weights and dimensions matter: rates are quoted for what you enter.

Supported carriers

Domestic shipments can be rated and purchased across:

  • USPS
  • UPS
  • FedEx
  • DHL

There are no monthly minimums to print a label — compare rates and buy only what you need.

International shipping

For international orders, GoatLabels extends beyond the big four with a partner network:

  • Royal Mail
  • Canada Post
  • Aramex
  • Asendia
  • ePost Global
  • Passport
  • TNT

International shipments follow the same flow: enter the destination and package details (including any customs information the service requires), compare the available services, and buy from your wallet.

Getting the best price

  • Compare all quoted services before buying — the cheapest option varies by weight, size, and destination.
  • Enter precise package details so quotes match what you’re actually shipping.
  • On Pro, label rates are cheaper across the board, which adds up at volume. See goatlabels.io/pricing.

Tracking

Purchased labels come with tracking from the carrier. If you’ve set up webhooks (see API, Webhooks & Developer Basics), tracking events can be pushed to your own systems automatically.
