Canada Post and Zonos questions.
Canadian seller in need of advice about starting to selling USA buyers.
Here is how I believe I should do it...
-
Create Zonos account.
-
Input item info to get tariff quote. *I'm using CP so I use the Postal quote and ignore the Commercial quote.
-
How do I figure out what Zonos processing fee is? Is it a flat fee for the entire order or per item?
-
I manually input my shipping. I will add tariff + processing fee to US shipping cost and for additional items added I will only charge the tariff cost.
-
When I make a sale, I input the item info into Zonos, pay via credit card the tariffs/fee and it gives me a code.
-
I buy Canada Post USA shipping labels on Etsy and input the code Zonos supplied.
-
Drop off my order at the post office as usual.
Is my understanding correct? Any and all advice is much appreciated. Thanks.
