SendCloud/PostNL "Third-party carrier calculated shipping"

Hi,
We shipping our products from Netherland to whole world through PostNL using the Sendcloud app. But, PostNL applies different pricing for all regions. Sometimes there are differences on the base of kg weight. It’s a really bad idea to manually write the prices for each kg individually.

Add Rate : Based on item weight {
Between 1-2 kg 13,45€
Between 2-3 kg 14,45€
Between 3-4 kg 15,45€


}

I did some research for this situation and found a post in the community about “Third-party carrier calculated shipping”. Who should I contact to help us with this issue? Is this possible with PostNL? I need your suggestions and would be grateful for your help.

Hi @rtaha ,

Unfortunately, PostNL does not offer a Rates API that would enable third-party shipping apps to calculate shipping rates automatically based on weight, destination, and other factors.

However, there is an alternative solution that you can use to set up your shipping rates. You can create shipping profiles based on weight ranges and specific regions, and then assign specific shipping rates to each profile. This will enable you to automate your shipping rates based on weight ranges and ensure that the correct rates are charged for each region. This is seamless with the PH MultiCarrier Shipping Label app.

I hope this helps. If you have any further questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
