Purpose: Learn how to connect your own Der Kurier carrier contract with your Sendcloud account.
Step 1: Activate your Sendcloud subscription
Sendcloud offers three subscriptions with which you are able to use your own transport contract: Lite, Growth and Premium.
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 visit our website.
Step 2: Enable your carrier contract in Sendcloud
In your Sendcloud panel navigate to Shipping > Carriers > My contracts and click Add your own contract. Find Der Kurier in the list and click Add contract. Here you can add the credentials needed to validate the connection to the carrier.
Step 3: Enter your Der Kurier contract information
In order to activate your Der Kurier contract, fill in the following fields and do not forget to click Add this contract:
- Contract name: This field is optional. You can give a name to the contract in Sendcloud, for example "My Der Kurier contract".
- Email address: Email address linked to your Der Kurier account.
- Password: Password of your Der Kurier account.
- Client number: Your Der Kurier client number.
- Customer station: The number of your customer station.
Finally, you can choose whether you want to upload your own prices to the Sendcloud panel so that you see them when creating labels.
Done! If you have followed the steps described above, your Der Kurier contract should now be successfully linked to your Sendcloud platform and you can start shipping at your own Der Kurier rates. When you create a label with a Der Kurier shipping method, the label price will now show as 0.00 EUR in your account unless you upload your own prices.
