5 Top Shipping Tools
Shipping items off to Amazon is hard work. And if you’re not outsourcing it to people like FBA Inspection, then you’ll need fast, reliable software that can help you carry out basic shipment tasks.
This may include picking, inspecting, packaging, labeling, palletizing, and forwarding. It might also involve returns management, storage, and duty fee processing. Few tools can do all this, but here are a few you can try for your Amazon orders.
1. SellerEngine Plus
Primarily a tool that generates FBA shipments and prints out individual FBA labels, SellerEngine Plus not only helps with managing your shipping to FBA fulfillment centers but proves to be highly versatile with other tasks Amazon sellers have to do on a regular basis.
It includes features that help sellers research products in bulk, add new listings and update existing ones, reprice, and also manage their FBM orders.
You can use it on Amazon US, UK, and DE for only $49.95/month per venue.
2. Veeqo
From $160/month, multi-channel sellers can use the entry-level version of Veeqo. It ships items sold on a variety of channels, including FBM.

3. ShipWorks
Another tool for high-volume sellers, this is ShipStation’s bigger sister. It can print up to 16,000 labels per hour. But the 12,000 shipments/month Warehouse Essential plan should be more than enough for most sellers. Especially since the $349/month price tag grows with volume.
ShipWorks enables you to route your items across warehouses. You can also monitor sales across channels, schedule tasks, and automate picking and shipping. You also benefit from preferential carrier costs and cheaper alternatives to regular insurance coverage.
4. BrightPearl
BrightPearl is an omni-channel tool. It can integrate most post-purchase operations, including inventory management, warehousing, fulfillment, purchasing, and supplier management.

5. Fishbowl ShipExpress
Part of the Fishbowl Inventory tool for manufacturers, wholesalers, and distributors, ShipExpress can’t be bought separately. The package costs at least $4,395, depending on the functionality, but it’s an outright purchase. If you sign up, you get access to over 50 carriers worldwide, batch shipping, and preferential shipping and insurance rates.
