Don’t Miss Out: How Peak Season Delays Could Earn Your Business Refunds

Peak Season Delays = Your Refund Opportunity

As the holidays approach, businesses brace for what carriers call “peak season” — the busiest, most expensive, and often most unpredictable time of the year in shipping.

With record-high volumes and tighter delivery windows, it’s not uncommon for packages to arrive later than promised — and that’s exactly where opportunity hides in plain sight.

When Carriers Miss Their Commitments, You’re Owed a Refund

UPS, FedEx, and other major carriers offer money-back guarantees on most shipments that don’t meet their delivery commitment times. But during the chaos of peak season, many businesses simply accept delays as part of the rush — leaving thousands of dollars in potential refunds unclaimed.

The reality?
Carriers make mistakes. And when they do, your business deserves to get paid back for it.

Why So Many Refunds Go Unclaimed

Even though the refund policies exist, most businesses don’t have the time, tools, or visibility to track which shipments qualify. Carriers don’t exactly make it easy — and those small-dollar refunds add up fast when you’re shipping hundreds or thousands of packages a month.

That’s where ShipPlug steps in.

We automatically audit every shipment, identify late deliveries, overcharges, and hidden surcharges, and ensure your business gets the refunds it’s owed — without you lifting a finger.

Don’t Let Peak Season Costs Pile Up

Between fuel surcharges, demand fees, and delivery delays, Q4 is when shipping expenses hit hardest. ShipPlug helps businesses recover those dollars so you can reinvest them where it counts — growth, marketing, or inventory.

We don’t just track your shipments. We protect your bottom line.

The Takeaway

Peak season doesn’t have to mean peak stress.
Every delayed shipment could be a refund opportunity waiting to be claimed.

With ShipPlug, you don’t just ship — you ship smarter.
Because when carriers slip, your business shouldn’t pay the price.
