"I signed up a while ago and recall it being pretty simple. UPS is my primary shipper and because shipping has become so expensive, any discount is greatly appreciated. I have not tracked how much I saved as it is automatically applied when I ship, so it’s very easy to use." —Jan Schachter, ICAN Member
“The sign up was easy as I already had an account with UPS. I use this service at least 2–4 times a month and I’m sure I’ve saved hundreds of dollars over the years. It works with zero hassles!” — Mark Cortright, ICAN Member
