Sendle Additional Features
- Cancelling Orders
-
Deleting an order in Starshipit will not result in the job being cancelled in the Sendle system. You must cancel the job from within your Sendle dashboard to avoid being charged by Sendle.
- Pickups
-
Once you've printed a Sendle label, a job will be booked in the Sendle system. This automatically triggers a next-day pickup. Please note, that different drivers pick up domestic and international orders so if shipping both shipments you will need to keep the packages separate for pickup.
- International
-
Sendle doesn't yet service all of Australia for international. For a full list of suburbs, see here.
- Size Category
-
If coming from Sendle dashboard, you will notice Starshipit doesn't have Sendle size categories. These are not required when booking through Starshipit. As long as you enter in the correct dimensions and weights, this will be selected automatically by Sendle when you click print.
- Pickup Instructions
-
If you have specific instructions that you would like to be sent to the courier driver for picking up your packages. This can be configured from Settings > Couriers > Sendle > Advanced > Pickup Instructions. This will be sent to Sendle when you print your labels and they book the pickup on their end.
