ShipPlug’s software monitors carrier invoices in the background, flags late deliveries, and automatically files refund claims against FedEx and UPS service guarantees on behalf of the shipper. There is no change to existing shipping workflows. A business connects its FedEx or UPS account number, and ShipPlug’s system handles the rest, recovering money on shipments that arrive late. ShipPlug charges no upfront fee and takes a percentage only of the savings it recovers.

Article content

Through this exclusivity agreement, WareMatch is licensing ShipPlug’s technology and making it available free of charge to its network of 3PLs and shippers. Every warehouse listed on WareMatch, and every shipper using the platform to find warehouse space, can now access ShipPlug’s refund automation without signing up independently.

Article content

ShipPlug, which combines proprietary software with over 50 years of combined supply chain experience, has historically focused on direct-to-business relationships. This agreement gives the company its first structured entry into the 3PL market at scale, using WareMatch’s existing network as the distribution channel.

Why it matters for 3PLs and shippers

Article content

Carrier refunds for late deliveries are a well-documented but widely missed revenue recovery opportunity. FedEx and UPS both offer service guarantees tied to delivery windows, and claims can be filed when those windows are missed. In practice, most shippers don’t have the internal bandwidth to audit invoices and file claims consistently. The savings go uncollected.

Article content

For 3PLs specifically, this creates a tangible differentiator when talking to prospective clients. A warehouse that can tell a shipper, “You’ll recover money on late deliveries automatically, starting day one” has something concrete to put on the table.

Article content

Ryan Kalisky, CEO and co-founder of WareMatch, sees this as the core problem the partnership solves:

Article content

“This partnership allows us to bring an additional layer of operational value to our users while helping ShipPlug expand deeper into the 3PL market. Many companies simply do not have the time or internal processes to consistently monitor refund claims and shipping invoice discrepancies, causing savings opportunities to go unchecked. ShipPlug’s product is extremely non-invasive and user-friendly, which aligns closely with WareMatch’s approach to user experience.”
