Hi all I am almost pulling my hair out arghhhh please help. I am wanting to use only Australia Post for shipping internationally and domestic and to have it calculated with their shipping rates. How do I do this? I have tried numerous times but cannot work it out do i need to upgrade plan or is there a way to do this without upgrading as i am just starting out I hope this makes sense and someone can help or even better if there is a way someone can do it for me? (fingers crossed)

You need to enable Carrier Calculated Shipping (CCS) on your Shopify plan. This is not possible on the Shopify Basic plan. You have to contact Shopify support to sort this out. This is a mandatory step to show the live rates at checkout. There’s no other way.

You need an account with Australia Post.
-
You need an app like the Australia Post Rates & Labels app that integrates with your Australia Post account to display live rates at checkout and also process the shipment label.
As mentioned above, you will need the Carrier Calculated Shipping (CCS) activated on your plan. If you only need the Australia Post shipping rates displayed on the checkout page and if you don’t have Australia Post account, our app JsRates has a plug-in that pulls Australia Post real-time rates from: Postage calculator & delivery times - Australia Post (auspost.com.au)
If you have Australia Post account, you can also display your Australia Post rates on the checkout page using our app. We can help you with the setup. You can contact us on support@jsrates.com to discuss this further.
Hey Franchile, at the risk of this thread just becoming a lot of third-party solutions, you may also want to take a look at our app Starshipit (which can solve your issue, along with a number of other features). Good luck!
Hello Franchile! I wondered if you found a solution that works well for you? Off the back of your inquiry, I wondered if anyone else could comment on the following questions as well:
Is one third party solution better than another? And you definitely need an integration app to be able to facilitate orders made on Shopify via Australia Post?
Any help is gratefully received! Thank you!
