About 71lbs
71lbs helps companies save money on FedEx & UPS shipping costs by automatically recovering refunds for late deliveries, negotiating better carrier rates, and providing access to SMB savings programs.
71lbs is a shipping cost recovery service for businesses that use FedEx and UPS. The platform automatically audits shipping accounts to identify and claim refunds for late deliveries, which carriers are contractually obligated to provide but do not issue automatically. It also offers expert contract negotiation services, using over $1 billion in benchmarked shipping data to help companies secure better rates. Additional services include discounted shipping insurance and management of lost or damaged claims. 71lbs operates on a contingency-based pricing model, taking a percentage of the money it saves for the client, meaning there are no upfront costs or monthly fees. The service is designed for e-commerce businesses, manufacturers, and any company with significant shipping volume looking to reduce expenses and gain clarity into their shipping spend.
