DutyGlobal participates in affiliate and referral programs with shipping software companies. This page explains exactly what that means, who our partners are, and how it affects what you read on this site.
Some of the outbound links on DutyGlobal — the ones in our “Sponsored partner” cards and any link explicitly marked as sponsored — are affiliate links. If you click one of those links and sign up for the partner's product, DutyGlobal may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you.
This complies with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), the UK CMA's guidance on social media endorsements, and equivalent rules in other jurisdictions where our readers live.
Easyship combines multi-courier rate shopping with built-in duty and tax calculation, which makes it a natural next step after estimating landed cost on DutyGlobal.
Commission model: Affiliate program — DutyGlobal earns a referral commission when you sign up via our link, at no extra cost to you.
Shippo focuses on label rates and multi-carrier workflows, which is the layer you reach for once dimensional and chargeable weight are nailed down.
Commission model: Affiliate program via Shippo's partner program — DutyGlobal earns a commission when you sign up, at no extra cost to you.
ShipBob is a 3PL — it's the right next step once you outgrow self-managed fulfillment and need warehousing across regions.
Commission model: PartnerStack referral program — DutyGlobal earns a commission when you sign up for ShipBob through our links, at no extra cost to you.
Sugargoo is a shopping agent: it buys on your behalf inside China, consolidates parcels in its warehouse, then ships internationally — which is the step immediately after estimating volumetric weight here.
Commission model: Sugargoo Affiliate Center — DutyGlobal earns a commission when you register via our link and complete a delivery, at no extra cost to you.
Locad is a 3PL with warehouses in North America, Southeast Asia, Australia and the Middle East, charged per order fulfilled.
Commission model: Paid placement — Locad pays a flat fee (USD $250, 12 months from 2026-09-30) for a labelled listing. DutyGlobal earns no commission on signups and the listing does not affect the running order of providers.
Every partner we list is a publicly searchable company. You can always go directly to their website by typing the company name into your browser instead of clicking through a DutyGlobal link. The price you pay is the same; we just don't earn a referral credit on that signup.
If you spot something on DutyGlobal that looks like an undisclosed affiliate link, or you have a question about how a specific recommendation was made, please email us via the contact page. We treat disclosure issues as bugs and fix them quickly.
