Have you been looking to get a benchmark on ClickPost’s pricing before you schedule a call with their sales team?
Similar to enterprise-grade returns tools like Narvar, ClickPost has decided not to publicise its pricing.
However, this hasn’t stopped insiders on the market to ‘’whistle blow’’ on it.
In this guide, I’ll go over everything that is publicly known about ClickPost’s pricing structure, including how they calculate its pricing, whether it has a free plan or a free trial, and some reported numbers.
➡️ At the end of this guide, I’ll introduce you to a comprehensive ClickPost alternative for returns management that is easy to set up, does not require you to use your carrier accounts, and is affordable for SMEs.
ClickPost, to my knowledge, does not offer a free plan or a free trial. This is also confirmed by other 3rd party sources on the internet.

However, what ClickPost does offer for Shopify merchants who are looking for a returns management solution is a free-to-install plan for up to 25 requests per month and then $0.35 per extra return.

Note: I wasn’t able to confirm if this is only for Shopify or not.
ClickPost has publicised its returns management pricing on Shopify, where they have 4 plans that you can choose from, all with benchmark numbers and 7-day free trials:

According to insiders of the platform, ClickPost’s starting cost is $300/month for its shipping management software.

Despite this benchmark, beware that the platform provides custom pricing based on your needs, shipment volume, and selected feature modules.
➡️ There’s also no setup fee for the platform, according to TrustRadius.

From what I’ve seen, ClickPost’s customers have generally been satisfied with both its shipping and post-purchase solution.
Users are overall happy with its onboarding, which they describe as well-guided and mention that they’ve had a good time with the tool’s customer support.

‘’Onboarding is simple and well-guided, and the configurations are easy to understand. Their support team is quick and amazing. The dashboard is also clean and well organised, making returns or exchanges easy to process. Overall, it’s truly great value for money.’’ – Shopify Review.
However, there are some users on the market who are not too happy with the tool’s:


ZigZag is the best alternative to ClickPost in 2026 because it goes beyond post-purchase tracking and carrier orchestration to solve one of the most expensive and complex problems in global e-commerce: affordable returns at scale.
With rising international shipping costs, cross-border expansion, sustainability pressures, return fraud, and shrinking margins, returns are no longer just a downstream logistics issue.
That’s where ZigZag fundamentally differs.
While ClickPost is designed around managing deliveries and courier performance, ZigZag is purpose-built to reduce the cost, friction, and complexity of returns (especially across borders).
Instead of treating returns as a tracking extension of outbound shipping, ZigZag provides a global returns infrastructure that optimises where items go, how they move, and whether they should move at all.
Our platform helps you:
On top of that, you can also use our own carrier accounts, so you won’t have to use your own carrier account and would have a choice on which ones you use.
Note: Despite the fact that ZigZag Global is our returns platform, we’ll aim to provide an unbiased perspective on why we offer the best ClickPost alternative in 2026.
Let’s go over the functionality 👇 that e-commerce giants like SportsDirect, Ted Baker, Puma, and Swarovski love about ZigZag Global.
ZigZag offers a customisable returns portal that lets you customise your returns rules alongside white-labelling the portal to reflect your brand.
It’s possible to adapt various new return solutions (such as a gift card, exchange, or cash refund) depending on shoppers’ reasons for returning.
Reasons could be that the product was faulty, did not fit, or was unsuitable.
You can get a feel of how ZigZag’s tool works in our guided demo: 👇
Does your store operate on Shopify? Our returns solution can also be set up on Shopify with as little effort as a single click.
Here’s why retailers love our Shopify integration:
💡 Our research on returns found that 57% of shoppers who are considering returning items would accept a gift card as a refund.
This return option lets you keep money in your business while benefiting consumers with a quick gift card option they can use in your store.

The ‘’Global’’ part of ZigZag Global is because our returns platform is ideal for international merchants, as our software facilitates international returns in 170+ countries by connecting you with 1,500+ global carriers.
➡️ Our returns system can accept multiple currencies & provides different language settings for international shoppers, which is ideal for international brands.
Instead of using multiple return management platforms for the USA, Europe, and other regions, your brand can use ZigZag Global as a global return logistics solution.
The goal of our global returns solution is not only to manage your returns but to help you save time, money, and improve the loyalty of your shoppers.
This is why ZigZag Global offers the following return options for your consumers:

In-store returns are when your consumers return the product to your store in person to save the costs of a paid return online.
Your store can implement free in-store returns to slash shipping costs, boost foot traffic to your physical store, and give consumers more ways to get a refund.
💡 ZigZag Global also offers in-store drop-off kiosks for companies that are hassle-free for your shoppers.
Return to store credit is when shoppers get a refund in the form of a gift card to your online store, instead of a monetary refund in their bank account.
As users are happy to accept store credit instead of a refund (since it’s usually of greater value), we added the option of this return to our retailers’ portal so you can keep capital in the business.
➡️ Return to store credits allows you to increase and maintain the customer lifetime value.

As 48% of shoppers are happy paying for returns, there has been a 32% rise in paid returns since last year.
This is why we’ve started recommending the merchants we work with to implement paid returns in their stores, as the behaviour towards paid returns is changing.
That means asking consumers to pay a small fee to return their products.
Here are a few reasons why merchants have been offering paid returns:

Here’s a scenario where you have 5,000 returns per month, and 20% of them are paid returns of £3.
That’ll save you a total of £3,000 per month.


Our returns management tool offers advanced reporting that tracks everything for our retailers to view and manage from one portal, such as:
➡️ Retailers that use ZigZag Global can reduce their returns in the long run after evaluating the common reasons why people return products.
Similar to ClickPost, ZigZag Global’s Shopify pricing is based on returns per month as well as the level of automations and customisation you’d need.
Our platform has 4 pricing tiers for Shopify merchants:

💡 All of our Shopify pricing plans except the Enterprise plan come with a 14-day free trial.
Note: If your plan exceeds the returns limit, you’ll be charged $0.20 for each additional return.
If you feel like ClickPost does not cut it, you’re not short on alternatives.
If you’re looking for a returns management platform that can help you reduce return costs, recover lost revenue, and scale internationally without juggling multiple tools or rigid return rules, ZigZag Global stands out as the premier ClickPost alternative in 2026.
