Shippit · FinOps Profile

Shippit Finops

FinOps view of Shippit spend. Shippit cost has two main components: a monthly SaaS subscription scaled by order-volume band, and per-delivery carrier charges (advertised "from AUD 1 per delivery ex GST"), plus optional add-ons such as bring-your-own-carrier booking fees and transit protection (a percentage of order retail value). API usage itself is not separately metered; it is included in the subscription. Enterprise agreements carry negotiated rates. Per-unit rates are region-specific and were not reconciled here.
