ShipBlink Wallet Setup

Updated

Label purchases through any ShipBlink Carrier Account, such as USPS, or purchases of Shipping Insurance, are billed against the ShipBlink Wallet.

Managing payment methods within ShipBlink’s Dashboard is straightforward. This guide provides detailed instructions for connecting payment methods and funding the ShipBlink Wallet for the first time.

Connecting a Payment Method

  1. Navigate to the ShipBlink Dashboard. 
  2. From the left menu, select Shipments > Wallet.
  3. Select Add Payment Method.
  4. Input card details and select Submit. A confirmation message will display upon successful connection. 

New Accounts are included in a promotion to receive $100 funded to the account after spending $100.

ShipBlink utilizes an automated system to load funds based on a minimum balance preference. The default preference, upon adding a payment method, is to transfer $100.00 if the wallet balance reaches $0.00. This charge is typically triggered during the first label purchase.  

Managing Wallet Preferences

  1. Access the Wallet page and select Manage Wallet Auto-Recharge.
  2. Adjust the Amount and Wallet Threshold Amount settings according to specified preferences: 
    • Amount: Specifies the amount to be added to the wallet from the payment method when the balance falls below a designated threshold. 
  3. Select Save. 

Funding the Wallet for the First Time

After setting up the payment method and adjusting the auto-reload preferences:

  1. On the Wallet page, select Add Funds.
  2. Choose the Load Amount and select the Payment Method.
  3. Select Confirm and Add Funds. Funds will appear in the wallet immediately after checkout. 

One-Time Funding Rules

When initiating a manual one-time top-up to the ShipBlink Wallet, adhere to the following guidelines:

  • Top-up Amounts: Must exceed the current balance. For instance, if the balance is $20.01, adding $20.00 or less is not permitted.
  • Pending Transactions: No additional payments are accepted while a bank payment transaction is processing. 
  • Payment Failures: Re-attempting a payment within five minutes after a failure may cause errors. 
  • Maximum value: $100,000
