Company profile
researched Sep 2026ShipTag operates a shipping management platform for merchants and individuals, centred on Saudi Arabia, that consolidates domestic and international shipping into a single dashboard. Users can compare carrier rates, issue waybills/labels, and track orders across more than 15 shipping companies, including Aramex, SMSA Express, SPL, DHL, J&T and UPS. A public rate calculator allows price checks without registration, with quoted prices inclusive of tax.
Beyond core shipping, the platform includes payment links that let sellers without an online store create a link covering a shipping waybill or products, share it via channels such as WhatsApp or Instagram, and receive a completed, paid order with the collected amount credited to an in-platform wallet. A "Global Checkout" product automatically generates an international version of a merchant's store under the merchant's own branding, adapting language, currency and payment methods to the shopper's country while leaving the domestic store unaffected and linking products directly. Mobile apps for iOS and Android support shipment creation, rate comparison, tracking and notifications, and a Chrome extension lets sellers import order details and print shipping labels in one click from the order page of Zid and Salla.
The operating entity is listed as "Company Ship Tag for Information Technology" with an address on King Khalid Road / Third Ring Road in Al Madinah Al Munawwarah, Saudi Arabia.
Business model
ShipTag aggregates carrier capacity and resells shipping at pre-negotiated rates through a self-service platform; there is no monthly subscription, users start free and pay per shipment at tax-inclusive prices. Additional monetised surfaces include payment links with an income wallet, and the Global Checkout cross-border storefront.
Transactional: no monthly subscription is required; merchants start free and pay when they ship, at pre-agreed rates stated to be inclusive of tax.
Traction
The company's site cites more than 20,000 users shipping with ShipTag and integration with 15+ carriers; the merchant portal cites more than 1,000 merchants. The Android app reports 10,000+ downloads and an app rating of 4.2 across stores, and the Chrome extension reports 126 users with a 5.0 rating from one review.
Latest developments
The Android app was updated in September 2026 with features including one-click sender/recipient address reversal for return shipments, recognition of manually entered Saudi cities (including English or variant spellings) in search and the rate calculator, a distinct "refunded" order state, warehouse creation from within warehouse selection or inventory editing, and fixes to domestic shipment carrier selection. The Chrome extension reached version 2.5.0 in May 2026.
