You can easily set-up Green Shipping to automatically offset all your UPS shipments. Note that UPS has two different tools for shipper: the web-based, My UPS; and the software-based WorldShip. Below is the set-up for web tool, My UPS. If you use WorldShip, you'll need to follow these instructions. Let's get started:
- First step is to make sure to Login In to your Green Shipping account.
- Identify your Green Shipping email Tracking ID. In order to view your Tracking ID, you'll need to navigate to the Email Tracking section of the Shipment Preferences page. Your Tracking ID will be in the form:
"track-gsuserid####@greenshipping.com" where: gsuserid is equal to your Green Shipping UserId and #### is a 4-digit security token.
- Under the Email Tracking section you'll need to allow for submission of tracking numbers via email. The "Accept Tracking Numbers via Email" radio button should be selected to "Yes".
- Green Shipping maintain a list of carrier email accounts which are used to transmit tracking numbers. In order to allow carrier information to be automatically added to your account, the "Accept Email from Major Shippers" radio button should be selected to "Yes". Should you need to add any additional authorized email senders, these can also be manually added.
- The next step is to properly configure your UPS shipper account. To start, sign in to your UPS Account . Log-In is located in the upper right corner of the homepage.
- Once logged in, you'll be taken to your "My UPS" page. Mouse over the "Shipping" tab in the top row of navigation. Once over Shipping, the rest of the menu will drop down. Select "Set Preferences" from the bottom of the Shipping menu.

- The Set Preference page contains a list of Shipping Preferences in the center pane. About half way down page, you'll find "Quantum View". Click "View/Edit" to the right of this preference.

- When you View/Edit this preference, the Quantum View area will expand and you'll be able to edit you "Quantum View Notify" setting. You'll want to create a new notification by adding your Green Shipping Email Tracking ID identified above into the "Email Address" field on the left hand side. To the right of where you entered your Green Shipping Tracking ID make sure to mark the check box in the "Ship" column. Once you have completed these two steps, click on "Update" in the lower right.

- You should receive a message that your Quantum View preferences were successfully updated.

- Your UPS Shipper set-up is complete and all of UPS web-based shipments will now be offset by Green Shipping! If you use world-ship, you'll also need to follow the WorldShip set-up instructions.
