Multi-channel support
To help you have the best possible experience when using Sendcloud, we offer multi-channel support so you can get help with your questions in the way that best suits your needs. You can either look for your answer in our publicly available resources or contact a Customer Support agent for more complex questions via Sendcloud Messenger, phone, or our ticket system.
Apart from that, we have additional resources like our status page, and our API documentation.
Find your answer in our Help Center
Our Help Center is Sendcloud's public knowledge base, where you can find a library of detailed information, including, but not limited to, feature guides, troubleshooting articles, carrier shipping conditions, and billing information. There are also many FAQ pages that will help you solve common issues.
How to look for information
- Go to the Help Center homepage
- Check our Quick Answers section for a short answer to some of the most common questions
- If you wish to read a more comprehensive article, click the section that best fits your question (E.g. For a question about Deutsche Post, you would click Carriers)
- Select the relevant topic
- Click the title of the most relevant article.
You can also use our search bar to search for keywords (E.g. If you have a question about Deutsche Post's shipping conditions, you can type Deutsche Poste conditions). You will have all the results that contain those words.
Contact us via Sendcloud Messenger
If you need a speedy answer or you have an urgent issue, you can start a new conversation with our support agents during our opening hours.
To open a messenger conversation, log into your Sendcloud panel and click the chat icon
in the bottom-right corner of your panel.
You can view all your past conversations by pressing the ‘back’ arrow at the top left of the widget. This allows you to re-open or review any conversations from previous days whenever you want.
You can also start or continue a Messenger conversation via WhatsApp. The WhatsApp option will be visible when you open Messenger in your Sendcloud account. If you are a Sendcloud user, you can use the button below:

- You want to dispute a surcharge
- You have scheduled a pick-up and the driver has not shown up
- Issues with your shipping rules

- Short questions regarding our features
Submit a ticket
You can also submit a ticket 24/7 from your Sendcloud panel if your issue is not urgent. It is also the most effective way to contact our support team when there is an issue with your shipments, as we need to forward the request to the carrier and we need very specific and detailed information.
There are two types of tickets: shipment tickets (related to your parcels) and support tickets (all the rest, e.g. platform, features, billing, suggestions). To learn how to open a ticket, read our articles How do I create a support ticket? or How do I start an investigation or file a claim for a parcel?
The more details you can provide in the ticket, the better, as that will allow us to have all the necessary information to handle your case and give you an answer faster.
Click to see examples of cases we can support you with through a ticket request
- Your parcel is lost, damaged, marked as delivered but not received.
- You have an issue when trying to add your own carrier contract.
- Complex but not urgent inquiries
- Suggestions and feedback

Known outages
Unfortunately, as a software platform, we might occasionally experience outages. Sometimes, our partners, like the carriers that we work with, experience outages themselves and this affects Sendcloud.
To follow reported incidents in real time, check our Status page and subscribe to receive updates. We will use this page to communicate when an issue is resolved.
