Frequently Asked Questions

Package Retriever is a web based platform that helps anyone who ships packages save money and simplify the process. Whether you're an online seller or someone shipping items occasionally, you can access discounted shipping rates, manage shipments in one place, and earn reward points with every label you purchase. The platform includes automation tools, complimentary pickup and insurance, and a clean dashboard to make shipping faster, easier, and more cost effective.

Connect stores, compare discounted rates, purchase and print labels in bulk, track packages, organize orders with custom workflows, manage returns, and message customers, all from one dashboard.

Every time you purchase a shipping label through Package Retriever, you automatically earn reward points, no extra sign up required. Points are credited to your account with each transaction and can be redeemed to save on future shipments. And we're just getting started. Soon, you'll be able to earn even more points through optional tools and experiences designed to fit naturally into your existing workflow. No forced ads, no disruptive prompts, just simple ways to maximize your savings without changing the way you already work.

Yes, there are no subscription fees, no freemium limits, and no hidden charges. Package Retriever is completely free whether you're shipping one package or hundreds. You only pay for the postage itself (at our discounted rates), and we even give you reward points on every shipment to use toward future labels.

We've negotiated deeply discounted commercial rates with major carriers, typically reserved for high volume shippers. Since we don't charge platform or subscription fees, you save even more.

One of the easiest ways to maximize your points is by selecting Zelle at checkout. When you pay with Zelle instead of a credit card, your reward points increase by nearly 60%. Bonus opportunities like this will always be clearly shown during checkout so you can choose the option that works best for you.
