FEDEX SHIPPING ACCOUNT
Departments may work directly with FedEx to ship and pay for shipping by using one of the following two procedures:
- Create a FedEx Billing Online account and pay for shipping invoices using the purchasing card.
- A video tutorial of FedEx Billing Online can be found here.
- Create or update a FedEx shipper account and attach the purchasing card to be direct-charged by FedEx for all shipments on the account.
- To setup this direct-charge method of payment, contact FedEx at govt@fedex.com or 800-645-9424.
- After this process is established with FedEx, the purchasing card will automatically be charged for each shipment processed on the FedEx account.
- Please note: when creating a shipper account be sure to request WSU pricing. This will guarantee shipping at the lowest cost available.
- After FedEx charges the purchasing card, the transaction will be available for reconciliation in PNet4. Please click here for detailed information on identifying and reconciling transactions in PNet4.
IMPORTANT: Invoices will no longer be received by Accounts Payable. The invoices will only be available electronically through FedEx Billing Online
