$4 Adjustment per Package for "FedEx from ShipStation" in Regular Pickup

[PDmobius]

I need someone to explain this. My company pays for our daily FedEx pickups on our FedEx account. But we rate shop for the best possible price for each shipment at the requested service speed. Why does it matter if I'm putting a "FedEx from Shipstation" package - with a label I paid for - in with a FedEx pickup that I'm also already paying for? What exactly am I getting away with that ShipStation decided there needs to be a $4 adjustment tacked onto each package?

This is interesting, I use my own FedEx account because it's got killer grandfathered rates so I haven't seen this happen. 

With that said, you can book FedEx pickups the same day, so a simple script on a platform like Zapier could check at a set time if there are FedEx labels created that day, and then schedule a pickup if so. I've done this with Purolator rates from Shipstation and it's been incredibly handy.
