NZ Post is New Zealand's national postal and courier service, and it carries a large share of the country's ecommerce parcels. A Shopify store can connect to it directly or through shipping software such as Starshipit. We scope which connection suits your order volume and courier mix, then manage the configuration so each Shopify order generates the correct NZ Post label and rate.
We look at your order volume and courier mix to decide between a direct NZ Post connection and a shipping app.
We scope and manage the setup so rates, zones and rural delivery rules match your NZ Post account.
The full path, from checkout rate to printed label, is tested before it carries real orders.
Customers see NZ Post shipping costs based on the weight and destination of their order, so heavy orders cover their freight and light ones are priced fairly.
Address and parcel details move from the Shopify order into the label, so nobody retypes an address before a parcel goes out.
Rural delivery surcharges and timeframes are configured from the start, so rural customers see the right price and delivery estimate at checkout.
Customers receive NZ Post tracking as soon as their parcel is dispatched.
NZ Post is New Zealand's national postal and courier service. Skyrocket scopes and manages the NZ Post connection into Shopify, directly or through shipping software, so rates, labels, rural delivery and tracking work automatically.
Should we connect NZ Post directly or through Starshipit?
It depends on your order volume and whether you use other couriers. We recommend the route that fits your setup and cost.
Will rural customers see accurate shipping costs?
Yes. Rural delivery rules are configured and tested as part of the setup.
Can we offer NZ Post alongside another courier?
Yes. The checkout can offer different options by destination, and we configure which appear where.
Do you manage our NZ Post account?
Your account and its costs stay directly between you and NZ Post. We handle the technical setup that connects it to your store.
Once a Shopify store grows past a handful of orders a day, manually choosing a courier for each one stops being realistic. Here is how automated rate comparison and label printing actually work, and what a proper setup needs to get right.

Before a project starts, we often come to you. Sitting in your space, understanding how the business operates and working through the brief face to face gives us context that a video call doesn't quite replicate.
