How ShipSeeker compares
Flexport’s Tariff Simulator is the free tool to beat on calculations — so we don’t try to out-free it. ShipSeeker wins where Flexport’s model stops: it works whether or not you ship with Flexport, and it helps you recover the IEEPA tariffs you overpaid and monitor your own codes. The trade-data incumbents are built for enterprise supplier research and priced to match; the duty calculators do one thing and bill per call.

Competitor features and prices checked October 2026 from each vendor’s public pages; confirm current pricing with the vendor. Flexport’s Tariff Simulator and its refund estimator are free to the public and update within ~48h of an official change; only its Pro features and refund automation/filing need a Flexport client account. ImportGenius plans start at ~$1,500/yr (*their pricing page). Zonos is priced for outbound e-commerce checkout ($2/order + 10% of duties, taxes and fees) — a different job from importer landed cost. Panjiva and several tiers are quote-based (*estimated). If your main need is named supplier-to-buyer shipment records, the bill-of-lading platforms above are built for that.
Pricing FAQ
Is there really a free plan?
Yes — Free forever, no credit card. You get the landed-cost calculator, the refund estimator, the 301 snapback checker, AI classification (20/day), sanctions screening (10/day) and 12 months of history. Most people start free and upgrade once monitoring & alerts pay for themselves.
Can I cancel anytime? Is there a money-back guarantee?
Both. Cancel in one click from your account — no phone call. And every paid plan has a 30-day money-back guarantee: if it’s not a fit, email us within 30 days for a full refund, no questions asked.
What’s a “seat” on Team?
A login for a teammate. Team includes 5 seats that share one watchlist, so your whole import desk sees the same monitored SKUs and alerts. Add or remove teammates anytime on your team page.
Monthly or annual — can I switch?
Either, and you can switch whenever. Annual saves two months (Importer is $490/yr vs $588 monthly; Team $1,490 vs $1,788). Moving from monthly to annual applies at your next renewal.
What’s the Refund Gap Report — and is it included?
A one-time report that turns your ACE entries into a CAPE-ready refund claim (from $299, priced by entry count). It’s credited toward an annual plan if you upgrade within 30 days, and included free with annual Team — one per year. (Monthly Team can still buy it, or it’s credited toward upgrading to annual.)
What if I hit a limit — SKUs or API calls?
You’ll see a clear notice with the next step; nothing breaks. Importer watches 250 SKUs, Team 1,000; the REST API is 10,000 calls/mo on Team and 100,000 on Broker. Need more? Just email us.
Do I get duty-change alerts on the Free plan?
Yes — Free includes rate-change alerts on up to 5 HTS codes: we email you the moment a duty rate changes on a code you watch. Importer adds the dollar impact on your own import volume and a cheaper-origin suggestion, and lifts the cap to your whole catalog.
How do I pay, and is it secure?
All major cards through Stripe — we never see or store your card number, and receipts are emailed automatically.
Will my price change?
Your rate is locked while your subscription stays active. If we ever change pricing, existing subscribers keep theirs.
