Shipping Integration
Automatically send WooCommerce orders to Royal Mail Click & Drop. Orders sync in real time — no CSV exports, no manual data entry, no mistakes.
This WordPress plugin connects your WooCommerce store directly to Royal Mail Click & Drop. When a customer places an order, the details are automatically pushed to Click & Drop using Royal Mail's official API — ready for you to generate labels and dispatch, without touching a spreadsheet.
Fully compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage — works with modern WooCommerce setups.
Generate labels for multiple orders at once in Click & Drop — ideal for high-volume stores dispatching daily batches.
Uses Royal Mail's official API with your own authorisation key. Your data stays private and the connection stays stable.
The plugin is £6.99 per month and comes with a free one-month trial. That covers the integration, ongoing updates and support — no per-label fees and no transaction charges.
Yes — the plugin is fully HPOS compatible. It works against both the legacy post-type order storage and the modern HPOS tables, so it's safe to run on any current WooCommerce release.
We need WordPress admin access to install and configure the plugin on your site, plus your Royal Mail Click & Drop account login. We can use a dedicated, time-limited admin user if you prefer to keep your main credentials private — we'll walk you through creating one.
Yes. Once orders are synced into Click & Drop, you can batch them up and print labels in bulk using Click & Drop's native interface — ideal if you pack a full day's orders in one session.
Yes. When you complete postage in Click & Drop, the WooCommerce order is marked as complete and the Royal Mail tracking number is pushed back into the order, so any dispatch emails you send can include it automatically.
Yes — and the best place to do this is inside Royal Mail Click & Drop's built-in Shipping Rules engine. Once orders have synced over, Click & Drop evaluates each one against rules you've defined and assigns the correct service automatically.
Typical weight-based setups look like:
Make sure each product has a weight set in WooCommerce — that value flows through with the order and drives the rules. You can combine weight with destination country, order value or package dimensions to get more granular mapping.
Royal Mail updates their systems periodically. We monitor those changes and push fixes to the plugin as part of your subscription — if something breaks because of an upstream change, we resolve it at our end without you having to chase.
Yes — the plugin works with both standard Royal Mail Click & Drop accounts and Royal Mail OBA (On-line Business Account). You don't need to change anything on your Royal Mail side.
Cancellation takes effect after 30 days' notice. The integration keeps running through the notice period, then stops at the end of your billing cycle. There are no long-term tie-ins.
Yes — we regularly take on custom WooCommerce plugin development, theme work, performance audits and third-party integrations (CRM, ERP, accounting). Get in touch if you'd like to discuss something specific.
