ShipBlu

Egyptian eCommerce has a specific cash-cycle problem: COD dominates, settlement is slow, and merchants fund their next inventory order out of a receivable that hasn't landed yet. ShipBlu organizes its whole product around that problem. Instant Payout delivers collected COD same-day, and the automated billing system backs it — invoices and statements auto-generate on your dashboard rather than arriving by email as an Excel sheet. If you've air-freighted stock on a credit card while waiting for a courier to settle, that's the feature that changes your month. On the delivery side, ShipBlu Verify automates verification on each delivery attempt, which is really about cutting courier judgment calls and dispute exposure, and ShipBlu Secure sends the customer a unique QR code on delivery day. Both feed the published 89% first-attempt success rate. Add exact delivery dates at pickup and one-click self-service rescheduling and you have fewer support tickets and fewer failed drops. The 94% satisfaction figure is the vendor's own and worth treating as directional. The commercial argument for higher-ticket sellers is Valu installments of up to 60 months, now paid at the doorstep through the myBlu app. That's a conversion play, not a logistics one, and it's a real differentiator versus carriers that only move boxes. Where ShipBlu's pricing gets interesting: the headline EGP 74.31 is a base for one package, Cairo & Giza destination. Second package adds EGP 18.58, third EGP 14.86, fourth EGP 11.15. Size add-ons run EGP 7.43 for Large and EGP 11.15 for X-Large. Destination surcharges stack on top: Alexandria +EGP 6.03, Delta & Canal +EGP 8.04, Assiut +EGP 60.32, North Coast +EGP 70.38. And a 0.5% fee applies to any COD collected or refunds processed, minimum EGP 1 per order. Model your basket before you commit, because the per-order number you see on the pricing page is a floor, not an average. What ShipBlu is not: a regional or cross-border carrier. Coverage is Cairo & Giza, Alexandria, the Delta & Canal regions, Assiut, and the North Coast. If your customers are in the Gulf or Europe, look elsewhere. If your volume is high enough that per-order fees matter more than payout speed, negotiate the Enterprise Price Plans rather than assuming the Single Blu rate is your rate.
