Hidden shipping fees are draining your margins.

Shipping costs are more than just the base rate. Accessional charges — extra fees that often exceed the base rate — hide in plain sight and drain your profit margins.

Frequently asked questions.

  • Carriers have the knowledge advantage. Our team of expert negotiators and experienced carrier executives, plus our $1.4B benchmark database, means we know how much lower your rates should be. Instead of negotiating in the dark, you'll see exactly what you can save — before you commit.

  • No. Unlike other approaches, we focus on lowering your costs while keeping your current shipping providers and service levels. Most businesses save 10-30% without changing their carrier or delivery speed.

  • Most consultants focus solely on shipping — we go beyond that. Margin Pro includes carrier negotiations and automated marketplace fee recovery. It's a complete profit protection system instead of just a standalone service.

  • No. We take a professional, data-driven approach and enable you to lead the negotiations. Carriers expect rate reviews, and they prefer to keep long-term customers happy. Our process ensures you get fair, competitive rates while maintaining a strong working relationship.

  • You only pay when we secure shipping savings. The exact fee will depend on the specifics of your business, but it's never more than 20% of the amount we save for you.
