Add Royal Mail Click & Drop

[cartersshop]

Hi Shipstation

Please can you consider adding Royal Mail Click and Drop accounts as well as Royal Mail OBA accounts to your platform. 

Royal Mail OBA pricing for small business like mine is not very competitive because I "only ship about 3000 - 4000 parcels a year'' says a Royal Mail OBA rep, but actually that's quite a lot for a 2 - 3 person team/small business. 

Royal Mail Click and Drop accounts offer more competitive pricing/cheaper rates for smaller guys like us. Please add them to your carriers it would give small and independent businesses like ours so much more flexibility and make lives easier. 

We enjoy using our Shipstation account because on busy days we can easily manage our orders with minimal fuss and when a courier/carrier is experiencing difficulties in delivering parcels it gives us the flexibility to use another carrier which means our customers are not disappointed, this is just a brief reason as to why we love Shipstation, we would love it even more if you integrated Click and Drop though. Please consider !

Thank you ❤️

This would also be great for me as I am in the UK, Royal Mail is a must. I find myself using shipstation much less now as royal mail is not an option

Hi Shipstation. 

We last heard this was added to the roadmap in November of last year.

Do you have a provisional timeline yet?

Regards,

Callum.

Hello, @fairyglass  @garybakerblt , @cartersshop, @gregor!

After discussing this request with the development team, they confirmed that you already have an Online Business Account (OBA) with Royal Mail. This means you can access the full range of Royal Mail shipping services (based on your contract with them) directly through ShipStation without needing to leave the platform to print labels.

I hope you find this helpful!
