Live shipping rates
I am looking to set up live shipping rates from my fedex, shippo, and usps accounts. Is there a way to do this? I have two templates set up for both of my items but I do not want to over/under charge our customers to have these items shipped. We are self fullfilling these items as now.

The shipping price you offer for Standard orders must the be same price for all 48 contiguous states.
You may offer rates by region for Expedited. But "live"? Not sure what you mean - you must set a flat rate whether it be per item or per pound, it cannot fluctuate.

Hi @Seller_1SzOX9empMHgd!
According to Buy Shipping services, you can connect your own carrier accounts to use your negotiated rates. Under the "Features" section, it mentions you can link your carrier accounts to access your own rates.
For FedEx and USPS, you can connect them directly through Buy Shipping. Check out US shipping services - it explains that whether you use Amazon's negotiated rates or your own connected rates, you'll still get account health protection benefits.
One important note - while you can use your negotiated rates for fulfilling orders, the shipping charges shown to customers will still be based on your shipping templates rather than real-time rates from the carriers.
Best regards, Michael

Thanks to both above for the replies! Just bumping the thread re: April's question about "live" rates if you can clarify, OP? Hopefully your questions were answered but want to make sure.
