UPS is offering discounts to small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) ahead of the peak shipping season through a partnership with American Express, valid until February 28, 2026. The discounts apply to various shipping options, with greater savings for higher shipping volumes. Additionally, UPS is reducing certain fees by 50%. This initiative aims to attract more SMB customers, who are often more profitable per package than larger clients, despite challenges like new tariffs and rising operational costs. UPS is adapting its strategies to enhance service for this growing customer segment.
