Rate a Parcel

HTTP Request

POST /v1/rates

Summary

Use this operation to rate a parcel before you print and purchase a shipment label.

Note

This API does not validate addresses.

Considerations

1. You can rate parcels for Pitney Bowes (PB Expedited (USPS^®) and PB Standard), CBDS, FedEx, and UPS.

2. To rate a parcel for a single service, include the serviceId in the request body. The response will return a single Rates Object.

   PB Standard Delivery only: The serviceId field is required.

3. To rate a parcel for multiple services for a given parcel type, omit the serviceId field from the request body. The response will contain a separate Rates Object for each service rated.

   PB Standard Delivery only: You can rate a parcel for only one service at a time. The serviceId field is required.

4. PB Expedited (USPS) only: To rate a parcel for multiple services and parcel types at once, omit both the serviceId and parcelType fields in the request body. The response will contain a separate Rates Object for each combination of service and parcel type rated.

5. In the fromAddress and toAddress objects, the following address fields are required. Depending on the carrier, additional fields might also be required:

   • addressLines
   • postalCode
   • countryCode

6. The Rate a Parcel API does not validate addresses.

7. You must include the SHIPPER_ID option in the shipmentOptions array. This ensures the request returns the correct rates.

8. You can pass only one Rates Object in the request body, as shown in the Sample Requests below. The response might contain multiple Rates Objects, which can occur if you have omitted the serviceId field from the request.

9. For the available services and parcel types, see the carrier’s reference page.

10. PB Expedited (USPS) only: The PB Shipping APIs require that all parcels be trackable. If you are rating a service that is not trackable, such as Priority Mail (PM), add at least one trackable special service, such as Delivery Confirmation (DelCon). DelCon is a no-charge service that triggers tracking but does not increase the cost of the shipment. Before adding a special service, check its compatibility with the service.

11. PB Standard Delivery only: In addition to the above, the following fields are required in the request body:

    • parcel.weight
    • parcel.dimension
    • rates.carrier: Set this to NEWGISTICS
    • rates.serviceId: Rating is available only for Parcel Select and Parcel Select Lightweight. Set this to either PRCLSEL (Parcel Select) or PSLW (Parcel Select Lightweight).
    • rates.parcelType: Set this to PKG.
    • shipmentOptions: You must include the following options:
      • SHIPPER_ID
      • CLIENT_ID. If testing in Sandbox, use this value: 2689
      • CLIENT_FACILITY_ID. If testing in Sandbox, use: 0093
      • CARRIER_FACILITY_ID. If testing in Sandbox, use: 2594
      • If you set an irregular parcel girth value in the parcel.dimension object, then you must include the IS_RECTANGULAR option and set it to false.

12. PB Standard Delivery only: In the response body, the totalCarrierCharge equals the baseCharge plus all surcharges.

    The surcharges array will show only the FUEL surcharge. If other surcharges apply, they are not shown in the surcharges array. They are, however, included in the totalCarrierCharge.

    Note that the Rates API returns rates for PB Standard Delivery only. The API does not return rates for PB Standard Returns.

Request / Response Elements: Rates Object

The rates array takes one Rates Object in the request and returns one or more Rates Objects in the response. In the response, each object shows a different rating option.

Important

The following table describes all fields and values in the Rates Object. Some might not apply to this operation.

Name	Data Type	Description
carrier	String	Required. Carrier name. Valid values are: USPS: Use for PB Expedited and PMOD. NEWGISTICS: PB Standard. This value is available only for Create Shipment requests.

Optional for rating a parcel. If you use PB Expedited as the carrier: To determine any additional restrictions on a USPS service, use the Carrier Rules API. See also the USPS Domestic Mail Manual. The PB Shipping APIs require that all USPS parcels be trackable. If the parcel uses a service that is not trackable, such as Priority Mail, you must add at least one trackable special service, such as Delivery Confirmation (DelCon). DelCon is a no-charge special service that triggers tracking but does not increase the cost of the shipment. Before adding a special service, check its compatibility with the service.
parcelType	String	Conditional. The parcel type. For supported parcel types, see the carrier’s reference page. Required for: Creating a shipment Rating a FedEx or UPS parcel Not applicable to the CBDS Checkout Quotes API.
specialServices	Array[Special Services Object]	Conditional. The special services to be applied.

inductionPostalCode	String	The postal code where the shipment is tendered to the carrier. If this field is present, the postal code specified here is used instead of the postal code in the fromAddress when calculating rates and when determining if a shipment can be added to a manifest.

currencyCode	String	Type of currency referenced in the piece price. For example: USD, CAD, EUR This field applies to PB Expedited, CBDS, PMOD, FedEx, and UPS.
dimensionalWeight	Object	RESPONSE ONLY. PB Expedited Only. If the dimensionalWeight.weight field has a value other than 0, dimensional-weight pricing applies to the shipment. In general, if a parcel is large and relatively light for its size, it might be subject to dimensional-weight pricing. Dimensional weight, or DIM weight, is calculated based on volume and a volumetric divisor. For information on how USPS calculates DIM weight, see https://www.usps.com/dimensionalweight/. Note: A parcel might alternatively be subject to oversize pricing, as explained in the surcharges field below. This field applies to PB Expedited only.

If your request includes a shipper rate plan, see this FAQ on how the shipper rate affects this field. CBDS: In certain cases, the totalCarrierCharge might not reflect additional surcharges. UPS: In Sandbox, the data UPS supplies for totalCarrierCharge might be incorrect. Specifically it might be 1% too low or exclude special service fees, or both. In Production, UPS provides the correct data. Note: This field does not apply to PB Standard.
surcharges	Array[Object]	RESPONSE ONLY. Additional fees or surcharges for the shipment. Each object in the array defines a surcharge and fee. This field applies to PB Expedited, FedEx, and UPS.

The rate is based on the plan specified in the X-PB-Shipper-Rate-Plan parameter. This field can be returned only if carrier has a value of USPS. If the shipper has an NSA, do not use this field. Use the response’s baseCharge field instead. For more information, see this FAQ.
alternateTotalCharge	Double	RESPONSE ONLY. If your request includes a shipper rate plan and if the shipper does not have an NSA, this is the total charge payable by the shipper, including special service charges.
