📬
What’s new?
You can now ship PostNord Returns from Europe to Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden. You can also use PostNord QR Code Returns between the four Nordic countries.
💡
Why it matters
You have more return options available for customers in the Nordics, including QR code returns for cross-border Nordic returns.
ℹ️
Good to know
These return methods are only available for local PostNord contracts, not PostNord International contracts, as PostNord has different requirements for local and international contracts.
📬
What’s new?

- GLS Pick&Return has been enabled to enable returns from more countries within Europe to France.
- Returns from French Overseas Territories to Andorra, France, and Monaco are now available with Colissimo.
- GLS Pick&Ship has been enabled for all supported countries and is available for users using our GLS EU integration.
💡
Why it matters
- Delivery notes provide clarity to the carrier and their delivery personnel to avoid missed deliveries.
- Expanded shipping and return options give more flexibility to you and your customers when needed.
ℹ️
Good to know
- Delivery notes are available for all customers using Sendcloud.
- The expanded coverage for all shipping methods is available to customers using their own contract.
- The expanded GLS Pick&Ship coverage is subject to GLS restrictions. Contact your GLS representative for more information.
📬
What’s new?
You can now build your tracking page by turning individual modules on or off, instead of choosing from fixed layouts. Each module can be styled, with a preview shown next to the settings.
A new
Actions
module adds links on the tracking page to your return portal, the carrier’s tracking page (so shoppers can change the delivery moment when available), and your own support page. The carrier link is enabled by default on newly created tracking pages.💡
Why it matters
You can tailor your tracking page to match what your shoppers need, without being limited to preset themes. This makes it easier to add the right information and links to reduce support questions and guide shoppers to the next step.
🚀
How to use it
- Go to your tracking page settings.
- Turn modules on or off to create your preferred layout.
- Style each module and check the preview as you edit.
📬
What’s new?
You can now fetch carrier prices automatically when setting up a delivery method in Checkout. A new fetch button pulls Sendcloud transactional rates for all weight brackets for that shipping method and country pair, then fills in your price table.
Prices are rounded up to the nearest €0.50, and you can still edit them afterwards. You can also re-fetch later if prices change.
💡
Why it matters
You no longer need to manually look up and copy rates for every country and delivery option. This helps you publish Checkout configurations with accurate shipping prices, so customers see the right costs at checkout.
🚀
How to use it
- Open a delivery method in your Checkout configuration.
- Click Fetch to fill in the weight brackets and prices.
- Adjust any prices if needed, and re-fetch later to update them.
ℹ️
Good to know
- If you previously set custom weight ranges, re-fetching will replace them with the carrier’s weight brackets (you’ll be asked to confirm first).
- Fetch isn’t available yet for service point methods where multiple carriers are selected.
- This currently supports Sendcloud transactional rates on a single contract; zonal pricing, live-rate carriers, and multi-contract methods aren’t included.
📬
What’s new?
When you choose a shipping option for a delivery method, the most-used option for that route is now marked with a “Most popular” badge. In the configuration wizard, the most popular option is also auto-selected per route instead of the first option in the list.
💡
Why it matters
You get clearer guidance when multiple shipping options look similar, so you can pick the option merchants most often use for the same route. This helps avoid selecting an unsuitable option by default and reduces follow-up changes later.
📬
What’s new?
You can now select a third Delivery Status style in the tracking page editor: Live Line. It shows a clean timeline with real-time parcel progress and an estimated delivery.
💡
Why it matters
You get a more modern look without losing the visual “live” progress feedback, so customers can more easily see where their parcel is.
🚀
How to use it
- Open your Tracking page editor.
- Go to Delivery Status.
- Select Live Line from the dropdown.
ℹ️
Good to know
New merchants will see Live Line as the default Delivery Status. Existing merchants keep their current selection and can switch to Live Line anytime.
📬
What’s new?
You can now retrieve all tracking numbers linked to a single parcel via API v3. This covers cases where a shipment gets relabeled and receives an additional tracking number.
💡
Why it matters
You can keep tracking updates accurate even when a carrier changes the tracking number during the delivery process. This helps prevent missing delivery events when your system relies on tracking data.
ℹ️
Good to know
This applies to API v3 responses and includes all tracking numbers received from carriers.
📬
What’s new?
When you enter parcel dimensions, you can now get an estimate of the DPD Non-Standard Packaging (NSP) surcharge. This applies when any of the following is true:
- the length is over 130 cm
- the diagonal is over 130 cm
- the weight is over 20 kg
You'll see which NSP category (A, B, C, D) you fall into and the estimated surcharge amount. (Note: this covers dimension- and weight-based NSP triggers only - surcharges for irregular shape or manual handling can't be predicted from dimensions alone.)
💡
Why it matters
You can spot potential NSP surcharges before you ship, so you avoid surprises later on your carrier invoice.
🚀
How to use it
- Enter your parcel dimensions (and weight) when creating or editing a shipment.
- Check the price breakdown to see the NSP category and estimated surcharge.
ℹ️
Good to know
This is available in the Edit Order View, New Shipment Form, Pack & Go, Shipping Prices page, and the API v3 shipping options endpoint.
📬
What’s new?
You can now request a proof of delivery (POD) for eligible Colissimo shipments in France. POD retrieval is available in Sendcloud panel and via API v3.
💡
Why it matters
You can get delivery proof without going to the Colissimo portal or contacting our customer service team, making it easier to handle claims and customer questions from one place.
🚀
How to use it
- In the panel: Open a delivered parcel’s detail view, click the “Customer Service”button, and click“Request proof of delivery (POD)”.
- Via API: Use the “Retrieve a parcel document”endpoint in API v3 and requestproof-of-delivery. See our API docs here: https://sendcloud.dev/api/v3/parcel-documents/
ℹ️
Good to know
- POD retrieval is enabled per carrier and currently available for Colissimo only.
- A POD may also not be available if the carrier shipping product doesn’t support it or if it’s past the carrier’s retention period.
📬
What’s new?
You can now add an optional PO Number to your invoices. There’s a new PO Number field on the Addresses page under Invoice > Business Details. If you fill it in, the PO Number appears on your invoices; if you leave it empty, your invoices stay the same as before.
💡
Why it matters
You can match invoices to the right internal order or budget more easily when your finance team requires a PO Number. This reduces manual work when processing invoices in your accounting workflow.
🚀
How to use it
- Go to Addresses.
- Open Invoice > Business Details.
- Enter your PO Number (you can edit it anytime).
