Purpose: Learn how to connect your own InPost ES carrier contract with your Sendcloud account in three easy steps.

This carrier is only available in beta.

Step 1: Activate your Sendcloud subscription 

Sendcloud offers three subscriptions with which you are able to use your own transport contract: Lite, Growth and the Premium plan.

For more information regarding which plan is best for you and the needs of your business, you can always contact us via the support section of your Sendcloud account or click here.

Step 2: Enable your carrier contract 

Once you have activated a Sendcloud subscription, you can connect your carrier contract. 

In your Sendcloud panel navigate to Shipping > Carriers. Find InPost ES in the list of carriers and press enable. Then go to the My contracts tab and find InPost ES from the list. Click Add contract. Here you can add the credentials needed to validate the connection to InPost ES. 

Step 3: Enter your Chronopost account details

Once your InPost ES professional account is open, you will receive a document via email entitled "Security Settings". In this document the following information is enclosed:

  • Username:  Example: "FRSENDCL" (8 characters)
  • Password:   Example: "aaBBaaaB" (8 characters)
  • For the following fields ask InPost ES for the Dual Carrier API credentials
    • Login API
    • Password
    • Brand ID

Complete the form with the information above and click "Save" when you are done.

Note:please check that your InPost ES account is sufficiently funded before connecting your contract to your Sendcloud account. If your contract allows you to make shipments from your company to Relay (and vice versa for returns) it is necessary to check the box "You are using a pick-up". Otherwise by default you will make shipments and returns from relay to relay.

Done! Once you've followed the steps above, your InPost ES contract should now be successfully linked to your Sendcloud platform and you can begin shipping on your InPost ES rates. When you create a label with a InPost ES shipping method, the label price will now show as 0.00 EUR in your account.
