ParcelRateLab Test my rates
PARTNERS

List your parcel rates. We run the tests.

Your card is listed as a program code and re-rated against every shipper's sample, so you're only introduced where you win, and only through the Lab.

Who lists here

  • 3PLs with pooled carrier volume to share with brand clients
  • Carrier resellers and postal consolidators
  • Regional and final-mile carriers

How it works

  1. Sign the partner agreement first. Every provider has a commission agreement with Parcel Rate Lab in place before listing; it applies in perpetuity to accounts introduced through the Lab. You receive an agreement code.
  2. List your card with that code, your contacts, your rate matrix and your rules, with our commission already included in every rate and accessorial. A mutual NDA is one checkbox if you want one.
  3. We format it to the Lab standard so every card on the bench is compared like for like, then confirm with you by email before it goes live under a program code. Your name never appears on the site.
  4. Shippers test their rates. When your program wins on a shipper's sample and they request it, you get an email with the anonymized analysis and one question: do you want to speak with this buyer?
  5. Say yes and we make the introduction. Both sides' details and the full analysis come to the Lab desk, and we set up the intro and onboarding call.
  6. Keep it current. Every three months we email you to confirm the card is still accurate, send an updated version, or add another card to sell into.

The Lab standard format

Every card is stored the same way so the side-by-side is fair: a base-rate matrix (weight rows 1 lb and up × zones 2–8, with any accessorials you bake into base pricing already included), then the accessorials charged on top: residential surcharge, delivery area surcharge, fuel %, minimum charge, and the DIM divisor and threshold. Every rate and accessorial must already include our agreed commission. Send yours in any layout; we convert it.
