Shopify FedEx Shipping App with Print Label & Tracking

FAQ(s)

After 15 days of free trial and we don't renew, will the app still work?

FedEx Rates, Labels and Tracking app will continue to work until you uninstall it. However, if you do not want to use the app and you have not uninstalled it, Shopify will automatically charge for the monthly subscription.

Does the app support Freight shipping?

Yes. This app supports Freight Shipping for your FedEx Freight account.

Does the app support FedEx negotiated/account rates?

Yes. The app will display account rates in the cart/checkout page.

How to get the FedEx web services key and password? I already have the account number and meter number.

For complete information about getting FedEx Account No, FedEx Meter No, Web Services Key and Web Services Password, please visit the “Help” section under the “Account” tab in app “Settings” page.

Does this app work for all the countries?

</p

Ideally it should work wherever FedEx has their service.

Is there a way to override the box dimensions that automatically get selected when creating a label? I would like to enter custom dimensions, is this possible?

Yes. While generating the label manually, you can select the dimensions and weights. This will override the automatically calculated box dimensions and weight.

Can I provide free shipping on the website and use FedEx app to just print the labels and update the tracking numbers automatically?

Yes. You can disable the FedEx shipping methods to avoid displaying rates, but still print labels and generate tracking code from order details page. You will have to enable free shipping method under Shopify settings to make the shipping free for customers.

Is it possible to utilize FedEx app only for rate calculations? We do not need print labels feature.

You can use this app only for calculating shipping rates during check out. Print label and tracking features are optional. These get generated only when you manually press a button in the admin page of the order.

Is there a way to have the app calculate rates even by just having product weights?

No. FedEx API requires dimension and weight to calculate the shipping rates.

Product dimensions and weight can be configured to any unit as per the Shopify settings. App will automatically convert it to “in” and “lbs” for processing with FedEx.

Is there a way to set up the app to work with Kg and cms?

Product dimensions & weight can be configured to any unit as per the Shopify settings. The FedEx app will automatically convert it to inches and lbs for processing with FedEx.

Does the app support FedEx special services like Dry Ice Shipping?

Yes. The app supports all the special services provided by FedEx. This includes Dangerous Goods, Alcohol, Dry ice shipping, Delivery Signature, etc. It also supports services like FedEx One Rate and FedEx SmartPost.

Is there a way to set it up so that only one shipping label is made for the entire order?

Yes. You can do that in two ways.
1. Use Packing Method as WEIGHT-BASED PACKING and set the “Max Weight” equal to or greater than the sum of product weight.
2. Use Packing Method as BOX PACKING and configure box dimensions and weight which can hold the entire order.

Will invoice show up on the FedEx website?

Yes. Please make sure that you are Printing Live labels.

In case of trouble, Please contact FedEx support to check why the invoice is not showing up even though you are able to Print Live labels.

How do I pay for the shipping label?

This app creates the shipping label with postage and the amount is taken from your account by FedEx.

Is the app setup complicated?

The app is very easy to setup. We have a step by step tutorial on setting up this app. Our Help Desk also has extensive documentation which includes FAQs, Troubleshooting Guide and Knowledge Base.

Do you provide support for configuring the product and help resolve issues, if any?

Yes! In case you need assistance, open a ticket at our Help Center. We usually respond within 24 hours. However, in most cases, our Help Center articles will help to solve the issue faster.

How often is this app updated?
