איך מקבלים כתובת של שיפיטו?
After you sign up for a new account, we will determine your box number and generate a shipping addresses for you. All available shipping addresses will be available on your Shipito Account.

Is this a PO BOX address?
Many sellers do not ship to PO BOX addresses. The reason is that FedEx, UPS and DHL do not deliver packages to PO BOX. Our address is not a PO BOX address. We are a regular office building and warehouse staffed with full time employees from 9.00 AM till 6.00 PM Monday through Friday, therefore there is always someone available to receive incoming packages. Just because part of your address is mailbox or suite number does not mean it is a PO BOX address.

האם השירות שלכם זמין במדינת ישראל?
Our service is available to customers all over the world except Iran, North Korea and Sudan. Please check shipping restrictions for your country (FedEx, USPS, TNT, DHL).

To receive a free quote, please use our מחשבון שיפיטו . Enter your country, the weight of the package, and ZIP codes. You can select how each package will be sent. Just log in to your account and change shipping method. Postage is automatically recalculated.

We have plans. One for INDIVIDUAL PACKAGES and VIRTUAL MAILBOX. See more details here. You can upgrade to VIRTUAL MAILBOX anytime you want. And you can also downgrade to INDIVIDUAL PACKAGES and pay no monthly fees. All changes can be made on your account. Your mailbox number will remain the same.

We offer other additional services. You can request SPECIAL INSTRUCTION for each package on your account. For example, if you want to check whether or not a particular store included all items in your purchase, or if you want us to check if the package is in good shape (electronics, notebooks, cameras, etc.). Another example of special instruction is helping with returns, warranties issues, etc. Click here for our service Terms & Conditions.

For some special instructions we are forced to charged higher fee due to the time needed to fulfill them. The most common type of such instruction is request to split one package into different packages.

האם אתם יכולים לאחד את החבילות שלי לחבילה אחת גדולה?
Yes, we can consolidate package as long you signed up for our VIRTUAL MAILBOX plan. If you have signed up for our INDIVIDUAL PACKAGE plan, we do not offer consolidation. Virtual Mailbox costs only $50 per year and you can upgrade anytime. Your mailbox number will stay same.

Please note, a correctly filled customs declaration is your duty and responsibility. If you are not sure what is inside the package (if the merchant divides one purchase into multiple packages), we can open it and check the content. Use Special Request when you login to your account.

We can complete assisted purchases for you and forward any package to your home address, however, we do not provide COD forwarding.

SWIFT: CITIUS33
Bank info: Citibank
Address: 3900 Paradise Road Ste 127 Las Vegas, NV 89169
Reference code: CBGCON (זה יבטיח דירוג חלופי טוב יותר)

אנו לא מספקים מספר IBAN מכיוון שהוא אינו בשימוש על ידי בנקים בארה"ב.
אנו גובים 16$ דמי העברה בנקאית נכנסת. אל תשלחו סכום קטן מדי.

אילו שיטות תשלום נוספות, קיימות?
We accept credit cards (except in certain countries), Paypal, Bitcoin and wire transfer. Always submit payments through our order forms only. Just log in to your account and click on ADD DEPOSIT. For payments over $500 please use a wire transfer or Bitcoin otherwise the payment might be held for longer period of time to clear. The order form will automatically offer accepted payment method.

מהי תקרת ההוצאה בחשבון?
Every account has a spending limit. New accounts have lower spending limit. Established accounts have high spending limit. Spending limit means how much you can spend for postage or other services by credit card or Paypal payment method. Your spending limit will rise as you use our services. Wire transfer payments, Bitcoin payments or payments through payment partners don’t have any spending limit. You might need to send a wire transfer to ship the first package. You can also increase the limit by providing notarized form 1583 and two copies of your id (see the form 1583 on your account). Original notarized FORM 1583 will increase your limit by 50%.

עבור מה דמי הפיקדון?
If you would like to use our services more frequently, you can pre-pay postage by using the deposit option. This way you don’t have to pay for every package separately. Log in to your account. There you will see your current balance and link for paying an additional deposit.

האם ישנן עמלות נוספות?
There is a 4.3% bank fee only on postage or assisted purchases. We don’t charge the bank fee on payments for our services, but only for shipping cost. The reason is that sometimes postage can be expensive. For example postage for one package can cost $200. We charge $2 our fee for forwarding the package. But the credit card company will charge us 4.3% for any incoming international payment, so we will receive only $2 and pay $8.60 in bank fees. The fee covers the cost of receiving the banking charges.

If you don’t want to pay the 4.3% bank fee please send us a wire transfer or use Bitcoin. We will automatically add 4.3% to any wire transfer or Bitcoin payment. However, for wire transfer, we also charge $16 incoming flat fee for receiving the transfer.

מהו מספר הטלפון בו כדאי להשתמש בעת ביצוע הזמנה באינטרנט?
Some online stores will ask for a US phone number. Do not place Shipito phone number otherwise your order would be most probably cancelled which is because if the seller receives several orders on different names and credit cards but with the same phone number their system could detect it as a risky order so you need to place your own phone number. You can get a US phone number with many online services such as http://www.skype.com/en/features/online-number/, http://www.spokn.com/ or http://www.tollfreeforwarding.com/

Or you can install Whistle phone appplication on your smart phone which will allow you to have a US number created for free with the option to choose the area code as well https://www.whistlephone.com/

מה אוכל לעשות אם סוחר דורש ממני כרטיס חיוב בארה"ב, עם כתובת לחיוב בארה"ב?
Some online stores will ask you to pay with US debit card. Thanks to our cooperation with USunlocked, you can easily get your own US debit card with US billing address. Visit our USunlocked site for more details.

מה אם החשבון שלי בשיפיטו, נמצא בהמתנה עד האימות שלו? האם ניתן להשתמש בכרטיס אשראי או חשבון פייפאל של מישהו אחר?
The name on the credit card/Paypal account must match that on the Shipito account. If account holders on the payment account do not match that on your Shipito account, your account will need to be fully verified (notarized 1583 from both Paypal/credit card owner and Shipito account holder). We will close accounts in case we are notified by merchants that a stolen credit card was used.

There are few legitimate exceptions and we allow them only if you provide notarized form 1583 from both you (account owner) and person making payments on your account. The original form must be notarized and mailed to us with two forms of ID (driver license, passport).

1583 form, copy of two forms of IDs is required by USPS (American postal service) in case you want to receive packages or mail by USPS shipping method. Log in to your account and print pre-filled 1583 form. Sign and notarize your signature and mail original with two forms of ID as soon as possible.

If we receive a chargeback, and it is found that a third party credit card or Paypal was use, your account will be closed immediately.

מה קורה אם אני סוחר והמוצר שלי נשלח ללקוח שלכם ויש לי חיוב?
Store owners, please contact us immediately if you are a victim of credit card fraud. If we find that a stolen credit card was used, we immediately send packages back to you. We have zero tolerance policy. Fraud accounts are immediately cancelled.

We also offer a program where we can guarantee you all sales if they are purchased directly by us. Don’t loose international sales and let us keep the risk of accepting international payments.
