Is FedEx a separate direct CMS Max plugin?

The current CMS Max shipping architecture connects FedEx as a carrier through the Shippo plugin. Shippo supplies the multi-carrier API layer used for eligible rates, labels, and tracking workflows.

Can CMS Max show FedEx rates at checkout?

Yes, when Shippo is active, an eligible FedEx carrier account and services are available, the destination is supported, and the store provides the parcel and address data required for rating.

Will the checkout rate always equal the FedEx invoice?

No. A carrier quote is an estimate based on submitted data. Final charges can differ because of measured weight or dimensions, address corrections, fuel and residential surcharges, special services, pickup, and other carrier adjustments.

Can the store limit which FedEx services appear?

Yes. CMS Max Shippo settings support allowed-carrier and allowed-service-level filters. Availability still depends on the connected account, parcel, origin, destination, and carrier response.

Does the workflow support FedEx labels and tracking?

The Shippo-backed CMS Max workflow supports label operations and tracking data for eligible carrier services. Exact capabilities and formats depend on current Shippo and FedEx support and account configuration.

What happens if live rating is temporarily unavailable?

A CMS Max shipping method can use a configured flat fallback rate for qualifying Shippo failures. The merchant should choose that amount deliberately, monitor its use, and define when fulfillment staff must contact the customer.
