Fishbowl partners with Shippo to launch free Fishbowl ShipExpress Plugin
Helps customers during difficult economic times
OREM, Utah, July 7, 2020 – In order to help its customers amid challenging economic times, Fishbowl®, in partnership with Shippo , announced today the availability of its newly redesigned Fishbowl ShipExpress® plugin at no cost. The updated plugin provides access to label printing, tracking, and more from over 50 regional, national and international shipping carriers.
Because of the partnership, the five-cent software service fee for each generated shipping label is waived by Shippo for Fishbowl ShipExpress users. Customers simply create a Shippo account and download the ShipExpress plugin to begin using.
The ShipExpress plugin is valued at $995 and is included at no cost for Fishbowl Manufacturing and Fishbowl Warehouse customers. It adds many new features to the shipping and sales modules.

- Bulk address validation to avoid shipping to the wrong addresses when dealing with a large volume of outgoing packages.
- USPS Commercial Plus Pricing, which gives you exclusive discounts on USPS shipping rates.
