Surcharges

Easily create, manage and edit carrier surcharges and apply them to the merchants shipments.

In some cases, a carrier will automatically update various shipment properties via the API and these updates will appear as the shipment travels along it’s journey. Some of the information received can be confirmation of dimensions, weight and in other cases it can be surcharge fees which will be applied to the shipment.
