--- title: "Is EasyPost Down? EasyPost Carrier API Status" canonical_url: "https://shipzil.com/platform/easypost" last_updated: "2026-11-11T03:55:11.409Z" content_type: "static snapshot" live_status_url: "https://shipzil-worker.sameer-kumar.workers.dev/live" source: "Shipzil" --- # Is EasyPost Down? Operated by EasyPost. Two separate claims are published below: what EasyPost reports about itself, and what an independent rate request to its production API actually returned. If only EasyPost reports a USPS, FedEx or UPS problem, it is most likely EasyPost's integration with that carrier; if platforms from two or more independent companies report it together, it is more likely the carrier. Across 62 days of Shipzil's own checks, 17526 of 17545 rate requests to EasyPost's production API (99.89%) returned a bookable rate, median 1924ms, p95 4739ms. Daily figures: https://shipzil-worker.sameer-kumar.workers.dev/api/v1/rollups This file is a static snapshot built 2026-11-11 03:55 UTC. The live reading is at https://shipzil.com/platform/easypost. ## Carriers on EasyPost Uptime is calculated from the incident durations EasyPost reports, not independently measured. | Carrier | Status | Reading | 90-day reported uptime | |---------|--------|---------|------------------------| | [USPS](/carrier/usps.md) | Operational | current | 99.65% | | [FedEx](/carrier/fedex.md) | Operational | current | 99.99% | | [UPS](/carrier/ups.md) | Operational | current | 99.84% | ## EasyPost services | Service | Status | |---------|--------| | Webhooks | Operational | | API | Operational | | Tracking | Operational | | Address Verification | Operational | ## Measured rate checks One fixed domestic US rate request to EasyPost's production API every 5 minutes. This measures one request path, not EasyPost's overall speed. Coverage is observed checks / expected checks. Check success is successful / observed. A missing check is not counted as a pass, and is never charged to EasyPost as a failure. - Window: 2026-11-10T03:55:11.000Z to 2026-11-11T03:55:11.000Z (24.0h) - Latest check: success - Check success: 100.00% of 289 observed - Coverage: 100.00% (289/289 expected) - Failed: 0 · Missing: 0 - Latency: 2169ms median, 3181ms p95 — successful checks only - Services returned on the latest check: 11 - Carriers quoted on the latest check: 2 of 2 the account can quote Raw 24-hour samples for all platforms: https://shipzil-worker.sameer-kumar.workers.dev/api/v1/telemetry ## EasyPost platform incidents (2) Account surfaces such as login, dashboard and billing.
