First setup is quite simple. On the FedEx® Sign Up page, please input your first and last name, your company name (optional), country, address, and your contact phone number, and your valid email address. Then, click ‘Enter Log In Details’ to continue.

You can use your email address as your User ID or create your own and enter a good password. Be sure to check the box for FedEx® terms of use.

Select your account type whether business or personal. Enter your business name. If personal, you can type in your personal name. If you prefer to use the same address as your contact details, please check the boxes for both shipping and billing details.

Just one more step to complete your FedEx® shipping account setup. Enter your credit card information and its billing address and ‘Submit’.

You’re all set! Verify your User ID and write down your FedEx® shipping account number and keep it secure. You will need it for the Step #2 setup.

API Key and Secret Key are required by FedEx® to access their rates and features using your own FedEx® account number. In order to acquire your API Key, you have to set up your organization and create your project in FedEx® Developer Portal. Since you already created your FedEx® account in Step # 1, all you need to do here is ‘Log In‘.

Enter your User ID and Password you had set up in Step 1-1.

Once you’re signed in, click on ‘My Projects’ on the left column menu, then click on ‘Create an Organization’ button.

IMPORTANT – Under “I work for a company that:” section, please choose “Ships with FedEx and needs to integrate FedEx APIs into their system”.

You are basically integrating FedEx® APIs into SHIP&TRACK system. Please fill in your company name, company’s website (skip if personal), and give your organization a name. It can be same as your company name.

Now that you have created your organization, let’s add your FedEx® shipping account number you wrote down in Step 1-5. Verify your company name, website address, and your organization name first. Then under “Add accounts”, please click on ‘Add Shipping Accounts’.

Verify that you are in “Manage Organization” section under “Shipping Accounts” submenu. Click on ‘Add Account’.

Add your FedEx® account number from Step 1-5 and create your account nickname. Fill in your billing address and continue to next step.

Choose “yes” option button and check the box for the End User License Agreement (EULA). You are now ready to add your shipping account number.

Under My Projects section, let’s create your project which is required by FedEx®.

IMPORTANT – For “I work for a company that:” option, please choose “Ships with FedEx and using third-party software solution that has requested API keys”.
