Our take

Hong Kong-based Easyship was conceived when its founders noticed that there was no ‘plug- in” solution for shipping, as there is for online payments. Its service adds shipment options to e-commerce pages to make the shipping of a product internationally as easy as the payment.

Easyship enables direct access to over 250 global courier services, including UPS, FedEx and DHL, and claims to offer the cheapest international shipping rates up to 91% off. The platform’s various tools and automated services essentially allow business to focus on their products and growth whilst EasyShip manages their shipping needs.

The volumes of international post packages shot up following the pandemic creating greater demand for EasyShip’s services, which continue to grow in offerings. Its global reach is expansive with offices in Hong Kong, New York, London, Singapore and Australia, positioning itself as the leading shipping solution to businesses that want to reach their clients worldwide.
