Easyship
Add Easyship to your product for your customers, and give your AI agents governed access to it.
Easyship versions its API by date in the path, so calls go to api.easyship.com/2023-01 with a Bearer token, and an older integration pinned to an earlier dated version keeps working rather than silently changing shape. The rating call is where most of the logic sits: you post origin, destination and parcel details and get back a list of courier options with landed cost broken into freight, fuel, insurance and import duties and taxes, and the total_charge for a cross-border shipment is often dominated by the tax component rather than the freight. Shipments carry HS codes and declared customs values per line item, and a missing or wrong HS code is the usual cause of a rate that looks cheap and a label that will not buy. Label purchase is asynchronous: you request it and then wait for the label URL to appear on the shipment or arrive by webhook, so a synchronous checkout flow needs a holding state. Tracking events are normalised across couriers, which is helpful but means the raw carrier status string is not always preserved. fastn holds each customer's Easyship token and keeps the connection and webhook upkeep out of your codebase.
In your product
Embedded for your customers. Per-tenant auth, no per-customer code, maintained by fastn.
Let a customer connect their own Easyship account so labels bill to their courier rates and their contracts.
Show live landed cost at checkout, including duties and taxes, from the rating endpoint.
Create shipments from your orders and buy labels once the customer confirms the courier.
Stream normalised tracking events back into your order timeline for the buyer to see.
For your AI agents
Governed, audited access for the agents you build, through the MCP server.
Let an agent compare courier options for a pending order and recommend one, with the actual label purchase left to a human and audited per tenant.
Have an agent find shipments with no tracking movement past a threshold and flag them.
Allow an agent to explain a customs charge on a shipment by reading its declared items and HS codes.

Set up Easyship in 4 steps
- 01Enable the Easyship connector from your fastn dashboard.
- 02Have each customer authorise their own Easyship account, so calls run under their credentials rather than a shared key.
- 03Decide which shipments, tracking events and orders your product needs, map those fields, then enable the actions and triggers you want.
- 04Call it from your product and expose it to your agents through the same governed connection.
Why teams use the Easyship integration
What you get by embedding it with fastn instead of building it yourself.
- Ship an Easyship integration without building it. Your customers connect their own Easyship account inside your product and work their shipments, tracking events and orders there, with no per-customer code on your side.
- Handle the part that actually costs time: tracking data arrives from many carriers in inconsistent formats and at unpredictable times. fastn owns the auth, token refresh, rate limits, pagination and breaking-change fixes, so an Easyship update is not your on-call problem.
- One integration serves your product and your agents. The same governed Easyship connection powers in-product features and gives AI agents scoped, audited access, so you keep physical movement and stock visible inside your product without wiring it twice.

QuickBooksEasyship integration FAQ
How do I add an Easyship integration to my product?
Enable the Easyship connector in your fastn dashboard, then let each customer authenticate their own Easyship account. fastn handles the OAuth flow, token storage and refresh per tenant, so there is no Easyship client code in your app and no per-customer branch in your codebase. Setup is 4 steps.
Do my customers each connect their own Easyship account?
Yes. Every connection is scoped to the individual customer, so each authorises their own Easyship account and only ever sees their own shipments, tracking events and orders. That per-tenant isolation is the point of an embedded integration: you support the long tail of customer setups without maintaining an integration per customer.
Can AI agents use this Easyship integration?
Yes. The same connection is exposed to your agents through the fastn MCP gateway, with permissions scoped per tenant and every call audited. Let an agent compare courier options for a pending order and recommend one, with the actual label purchase left to a human and audited per tenant.
Who maintains the Easyship integration?
fastn does. When Easyship changes an endpoint, deprecates a field or alters its auth, the fix lands in the connector rather than in your backlog, and your customers' connections keep working.
Can I track shipments from Easyship inside my product?
Yes. Shipment and tracking events are read per customer and can trigger your workflows, so status changes surface in your product instead of your users checking a carrier site.
What does my product get back from Easyship as things move?
Whatever Easyship actually holds. Where it moves goods, that is shipment and tracking events, read per customer and delivered as they land. Where it holds stock, levels can be read on demand or kept in step through events, so your product is not deciding on a stale count. Where it carries orders and documents between trading partners, it is the acknowledgement, ship notice or status change that says what moved.
What can I build with the Easyship integration?
A common starting point: let a customer connect their own Easyship account so labels bill to their courier rates and their contracts. Teams also use it for the other use cases listed above, and expose it to agents for governed reads and writes.
How much does the Easyship integration cost?
It is included. Pricing is based on connected accounts, not on how many connectors you enable, so adding Easyship does not change your per-connector cost. You can start free with 3 connected accounts.
