Great Shipping Tool\!" — 5.0/5 > **Ben** | *28 January 2026* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: There are a myriad of shipping options, all available at the lowest prices without having to shop around or visit different vendors. > > **Cons**: Some of the shipping options are hidden or less intuitive to find. It took me a while to find how to ship using Media Mail with USPS. ----- ### "Awesome Shipping Experience with Unexpected Whimsy" — 5.0/5 > **Sarah** | *15 October 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Super simple to use, great customer service, very competitive rates, and adds whimsy to an otherwise very boring task. > > **Cons**: Some functionality for teams is not built out yet (like removing authorized users) but their support is so fast that it's not really an issue. Plus all the messages you get from support are in pirate-speak which is hilarious. > > This service is everything it needs to be and at the highest quality. It's fantastically simple to use, sources incredible rates, and the customer service is phenomenal. I don't even mind having to chat with support to remove authorized users on the account because it's just plain fun. I don't know if they use a filter to convert what the support reps say to pirate speak or if they are having fun and doing it on their own but it adds some whimsy to an otherwise dry task of shipping and logistics. ----- ### "GREAT JOB PIRATE SHIP" — 5.0/5 > **Steven** | *2 February 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Definitely value for your money. They are up to date with all the changes. I have never had any issues with Pirate Ship. Great for small or large business. Security is one of their utmost issues that they always take care of. Any problems with the internet they are on it right away in regards to bugs and issues. Whatever problems I have had any issues were solved fast and easy. I have been on for a number of years so far and they are the best. Easily able to get my orders from etsy on their site. > > **Cons**: I have never had any problems with the operation of Pirate Ship. They have never given me any reason to complain and when I did have a problem I found out a simple fix I forgot to do on my web browser. (cleaning the history) > > Overall, they are a smooth efficient organization saving me a ton of money instead of paying a monthly fee like all the rest. ----- ### "Lost shipment, zero accountability — $438 gone" — 1.0/5 > **Oleg** | *29 January 2026* | Cosmetics | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: Lost shipment, zero accountability — $438 gone/ The interface is simple and the rates look attractive at first. Creating a label is fast and convenient. > > **Cons**: When something goes wrong, Pirate Ship takes no responsibility at all. My international shipment was accepted, duties were paid, and then the parcel was lost. The carrier refused compensation. Pirate Ship’s response was to deny any responsibility and refund only the label — not the value of the lost contents. There is no real protection for the sender. > > On October 3, 2025, I paid Pirate Ship for international shipping of a package containing two custom hair systems worth $438. The shipment was accepted and processed. Import duties were paid. The parcel was never delivered and never returned. I contacted the carrier. The carrier refused to compensate the loss. I then contacted Pirate Ship. Their position was simple: “We are not responsible. Here is a refund for the label only.” In practice, Pirate Ship acts as a middle layer that gives you cheaper labels but zero real protection. When a shipment disappears, you are left alone between the carrier and Pirate Ship, with neither side taking responsibility. You lose both the item and the money. If you ship anything of real value, this service is a risk multiplier. The savings on the label are meaningless compared to losing the entire contents with no compensation. After this experience, I would strongly advise using carriers directly or services that provide real accountability and insurance. ----- ### "Arg\! I'm a pirate, not a robot\!" — 5.0/5 > **Amber** | *26 July 2025* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Other than it's fun vibe, Pirate Ship is my go-to for shipping labels because the prices are better than anywhere else I've found. > > **Cons**: Maybe they already offer this and I'm just missing it, but I would like to be able to just enter the zip code or city and state to see the label prices, instead of having to enter the entire address. > > When I started my business, I expected the shipping/label purchasing process to be complex and overwhelming, but Pirate Ship somehow ended up making it fun. ----- Page: 1 / 41\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ae/software/172133/pirate-ship?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ae/software/172133/pirate-ship) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | ja | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
