Apply to the FedEx Authorized ShipCenter® (FASC) Program
Introduction
The FedEx Authorized ShipCenter® (FASC) program is a business-building alliance between pack-and-ship retailers and FedEx. The program is designed to help you build your business and provide a high-quality experience to your customers.
The FASC program is based on supporting our mutual goals and objectives: By acting as convenient points of access to FedEx customers, FedEx Authorized ShipCenter locations play a critical role in the FedEx network. FedEx, in turn, supplies FedEx Authorized ShipCenter locations with a full range of shipping services; new sources of revenue and exposure; free FedEx® tools and supplies; and marketing, advertising, service and information support.
