ShipX ‑ Shipping Rates & Rules, our full review (reviews, installation, pricing)

What is ShipX (Shipeasy)?

ShipX is an advanced shipping rate calculator with conditional rules by item, weight, postcode, distance, and an AI-based packing algorithm for dynamic rates based on parcel size. It shows a perfect 5.0/5 rating on 1,192 reviews. It's developed by Logbase, based in India, and launched in July 2021.

How does the app work on a Shopify store?

Merchants calculate shipping rates by item and origin (useful for dropshipping), with conditions by cart, product, weight, postcode or distance. A rate blending feature combines multiple tiered rules, and the AI packing algorithm dynamically adjusts rates based on the box size actually needed. It covers 7 languages, including French, German and Spanish, and requires Shopify's Carrier Calculated Shipping API.

Why choose ShipX over another shipping rate app?

The review volume, over 1,190 with a perfect rating, makes it one of the most battle-tested apps in this category. AI-assisted packing to calculate rates based on real box size is a more advanced feature than the simple weight-based rules most competitors offer. One review describes an issue with rates not syncing correctly to Google Merchant Center for Google Shopping campaigns, resolved with a workaround rather than a true fix, worth checking directly in hands-on testing if the store actively runs Google Shopping.

What are the 3 main features of the app?

  1. AI-assisted packing for dynamic rates based on box size.
  2. Rate blending, combining multiple tiered rules.
  3. Item and origin-based rates, suited to multi-supplier dropshipping.
