FAQ

How do I get a UPS account number?

Contact them at 800-742-5877, or register online.

Where do I find my UPS.com username and password?

Contact UPS customer service at 800-742-5877 or the UPS account manager assigned to your account.

Where do I get my UPS API Access Key?

Obtaining a UPS API Access Key is done on UPS.com and requires a few steps. Refer to the Documentation tab on this page for detailed instructions.

Why do I sometimes get a message that a shipping rate estimate couldn’t be provided?

There are several possibilities:

  • UPS has restrictions on a shipment’s maximum weight, length and girth which your shipment may have exceeded.
  • There wasn’t enough information about the weight or dimensions for the products in the shopping cart to retrieve a shipping rate estimate.
  • The UPS web service isn’t operational.
  • Your UPS account has been suspended or cancelled.
  • Your Eniture Technology API key for this plugin has expired.

Why were the shipment charges I received on the invoice from UPS different than what was quoted by the plugin?

Common reasons include one of the shipment parameters (weight, dimensions) is different, or additional services (such as residential
delivery) were required. Compare the details of the invoice to the shipping settings on the products included in the shipment.
Consider making changes as needed. Remember that the weight of the packing materials is included in the billable weight for the shipment.
If you are unable to reconcile the differences call your local UPS office for assistance.
