Rates and transit times

Use our quote endpoint to check rates and estimate transit times between two ZIP codes. Depending on the ZIP codes you enter, different services may or may not be available.

No API key is required for this endpoint. However, if you don’t include a key, pricing will reflect standard/list rates and may not include account-specific pricing or rules.

Endpoint

GET https://www.jetdelivery.com/api/v1/utilities/quote/

Tip: Start simple with just origin and destination, then add optional fields as needed.

Open the Rates API Explorer

Quick examples

# Simplest form (no key required)
curl "https://www.jetdelivery.com/api/v1/utilities/quote/?origin=90021&destination=91750"

# With a Bearer key (recommended; returns account pricing when available)
curl "https://www.jetdelivery.com/api/v1/utilities/quote/?origin=90021&destination=91750&pieces=1&weight=1" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

# Existing query-key requests remain supported
curl "https://www.jetdelivery.com/api/v1/utilities/quote/?origin=90021&destination=91750&pieces=1&weight=1&key=YOUR_API_KEY"
For production integrations, call this endpoint server-side over HTTPS and prefer the Bearer header to keep your key out of URLs. Existing query/form key requests still work; no migration is required. A supplied Authorization header takes precedence. A malformed header or invalid Bearer credential returns HTTP 401 with an error object, without falling back to another key, a browser session, or anonymous pricing. Public quotes without credentials remain available.
