ShipTime’s Recommended Service helps highlight a shipping option that offers a strong balance of price, transit time, service reliability, and other available service details.
It appears when you generate a shipping quote and is designed to make it easier to compare your options without relying on price alone.
How is the Recommended Service selected?
ShipTime may consider factors such as:
- estimated transit time
- service guarantees
- price
- courier ratings
- overall service value
The goal is to surface an option that offers a practical balance between cost, speed, and reliability.
Do I have to choose the Recommended Service?
No.
You can still compare all available courier services and select the option that best fits your shipment.
The Recommended Service is simply a guide to help you quickly identify an option that may offer a strong overall value.
Why use the Recommended Service?
The Recommended Service can be useful when:
- you want to compare more than just the lowest price
- delivery speed is important
- you want to identify guaranteed services
- you want a quick way to narrow down multiple courier options
It can help you make a more informed decision while still giving you full control over which service you choose.
If you have questions about which courier option is best for a specific shipment, contact our Heroic Support™ team and we can help review the available services.
