EasyPost
EasyPost is a shipping API with 100+ carriers for label generation, tracking, and address verification. 8returns uses it for return labels and rate comparison.
EasyPost provides a single API to access 100+ carriers worldwide – from USPS and FedEx to DHL and regional last-mile providers. They handle label generation, tracking, address verification, and rate comparison.
EasyPost + 8returns
The EasyPost integration lets 8returns generate return labels from any supported carrier, compare rates in real time, and provide customers with the return option that works best for their location. Tracking data from all carriers flows back through EasyPost into 8returns, so your team sees unified return status regardless of the carrier.
EasyPost is particularly useful for merchants with US customers, where the carrier landscape is fragmented and rate optimization across USPS, FedEx, and UPS can significantly reduce return shipping costs.
Use Cases
Rate comparison for return labels
EasyPost compares rates across carriers in real time. 8returns can select the cheapest or fastest return option per shipment, reducing your per-return shipping cost without manual carrier management.
US and international carrier coverage
EasyPost connects to USPS, FedEx, UPS, DHL, and dozens of regional carriers. For merchants with US customers, this means return labels from the right carrier for each location – no single-carrier limitation.
