Open your browser and visit https://app.postcodeshipping.com/login

Enter your myshopify.com domain in the field provided and click Submit.




Authorize the app within the Shopify app install flow and set up the recurring charge to begin your subscription.

Once you have approved the app and successfully added it to your store you will be taken to the Postcode Shipping app.

If you see an error message rather than the one above on your first use of the app then it's likely that your account is missing the Carrier Shipping feature needed for Postcode Shipping to work. You can find out more in our pre-install setup guide.

You can then proceed and choose the type trial that you would like. Once you've completed this step you'll see the Dashboard of the app.




Congratulations, you have successfully installed the Postcode Shipping app and you are now able to setup your Shipping Zones, Regions and rates. Follow our guide Setting up the basics: Shipping Zones, Regions, Rates to find out how.
