But the differences between them could save you time, money \u2014 or a very stressful customs hold. Here&#8217;s the full breakdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you ship occasionally and want reliable, eco-conscious delivery at a fair price,\u00a0<strong>Express<\/strong>\u00a0at \u20ac30\/month is your plan. If your business depends on shipping \u2014 or you&#8217;re sending high-value goods internationally \u2014\u00a0<strong>Express Premium<\/strong>\u00a0at \u20ac50\/month pays for itself fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Feature by feature<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Feature<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&nbsp;Express<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&nbsp;Express Premium<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Monthly price<\/td><td>\u20ac30 \/ month<\/td><td>\u20ac50 \/ month<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Delivery time<\/td><td>24\u201372 hours<\/td><td>Guaranteed 24 hours<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Countries covered<\/td><td>180+<\/td><td>200+<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Shipments per month<\/td><td>Unlimited<\/td><td>Unlimited<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Included insurance<\/td><td>Up to \u20ac500<\/td><td>Up to \u20ac2,000<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pickup<\/td><td>Door or drop point<\/td><td>Same-day within 2 hours<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Packaging service<\/td><td>\u2014<\/td><td>White-glove at pickup<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Customs clearance<\/td><td>Included<\/td><td>Priority pre-approved<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Customer support<\/td><td>24\/7 general support<\/td><td>Dedicated personal agent<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Free returns<\/td><td>\u2014<\/td><td>&nbsp;Included<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>CO\u2082 offset<\/td><td>1 tree per shipment<\/td><td>2 trees per shipment<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Sustainability report<\/td><td>\u2014<\/td><td>Monthly CO\u2082 dashboard<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What the table doesn&#8217;t tell you<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Numbers are clear, but context matters. The jump from 72-hour to&nbsp;<em>guaranteed<\/em>&nbsp;24-hour delivery is the biggest practical difference \u2014 not just for impatient customers, but for businesses with SLA commitments, perishable goods, or time-sensitive B2B contracts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, the insurance gap is significant. Express covers parcels up to \u20ac500 \u2014 fine for most everyday goods. But if you&#8217;re shipping electronics, jewellery, luxury fashion, or specialised equipment, the Premium cap of \u20ac2,000 isn&#8217;t a luxury. It&#8217;s basic risk management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And the dedicated agent? We&#8217;ve heard from Premium customers that having a real person \u2014 someone who knows your account and your shipping patterns \u2014 is worth the upgrade price on its own. No hold music. No ticket queues. Just a call or a message, and it&#8217;s handled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our verdict: who should pick which<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Choose Express if\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">You ship smart, not constantly<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&#8217;re a small business, freelancer, or individual sender. Your parcels are under \u20ac500 in value. Delivery in 1\u20133 days works fine, and you don&#8217;t need white-glove handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;Choose Premium if\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shipping is core to your business<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You run an e-commerce brand, export high-value goods, or need guaranteed delivery windows. The time and risk savings make Premium the lower-cost option in the long run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both plans promise fast, carbon-neutral shipping to 180+ countries.
