Parcelo makes shipping simple. Compare rates across USPS, UPS, FedEx, and more โ€” then buy a label and ship in minutes, right from your iPhone. HOW IT WORKS Enter your from and to addresses, enter your package weight and dimensions, and Parcelo instantly fetches live rates from every major carrier. Sort by cheapest or fastest, pick the rate that works for you, and pay with Apple Pay or a credit card. Your label is ready immediately. COMPARE REAL CARRIER RATES See USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, and more side by side. Filter by carrier, sort by price or speed, and look for Cheapest, Fastest, and Best Value badges to make a quick decision. SKIP THE PRINTER Get a QR code you can scan for a label at counter for select carriers (currently only Post Office, more coming soon!). No printer, no ink, no paper, no problem. SAVE YOUR ADDRESSES Store sender and recipient addresses in your address book so you don't have to type out your friend's address every time you send them a birthday gift. Set a default sender address and it auto-fills every time you start a new shipment. FULL SHIPMENT HISTORY Every label you've ever bought is saved to your account. Browse, search, and filter your shipment history from any device โ€” your data syncs automatically. ADD INSURANCE Shipping something valuable? Add carrier insurance and ship with peace of mind. DIMENSIONAL WEIGHT ALERTS Large packages are billed by size, not weight. Parcelo calculates in real time UPS/FedEx or USPS dimensional weight pricing โ€” before you buy. No more surprise fees!

Parcelo is perfect for Etsy sellers, eBay sellers, small businesses, and anyone who ships packages regularly and wants to save money AND time!
