Using Royal Mail the smart way
Royal Mail has the widest UK address coverage: Tracked 48 suits everyday ecommerce parcels and Tracked 24 is faster; add Signed For when you need proof of delivery, and use Parcelforce Express for larger or urgent items. Light parcels are often cheaper via Evri. ShipCay compares the UK carriers per order and prints at the lowest rate.

Royal Mail batch printing — FAQ
Can ShipCay batch-print Royal Mail labels?
Yes. Import orders by CSV or API and ShipCay connects to Royal Mail Click & Drop to batch-generate official labels merged into a PDF—no order-by-order work on the carrier site.
Which Royal Mail services does ShipCay support?
Tracked 48 and Tracked 24 domestic tracked services, Signed For, Parcelforce Express for faster and larger items, plus International Economy / Standard / Tracked.
What does shipping from the UK cost?
UK lanes are priced from US$1 per label in software fees—lower than the US$2 on other lanes—dropping further with volume. Carrier freight is billed separately at your Royal Mail account rate.
Is Royal Mail or Evri cheaper?
It depends. Light parcels that can be dropped at a shop or locker are often cheaper via Evri, while Royal Mail is stronger where you need the widest coverage, proof of delivery or larger items. ShipCay compares per order so you do not have to decide manually.
What's the difference between Tracked 48 and Tracked 24?
Both are tracked; the difference is the speed tier—Tracked 24 is faster and costs more, while Tracked 48 is the common choice for everyday ecommerce parcels. Check the current Royal Mail delivery standards for exact timings.
What size should labels print at?
4×6 in (100×150 mm) thermal is standard; A4 printed and cut works too. Always print at 100% scale—scaling breaks the barcode.
