The Boostmyshop module connects myFulfillment to Royal Mail so the packing station can create the PDF label and attach the tracking number to the shipment. It suits merchants fulfilling domestic and international parcels from the UK in one operational flow.
Carrier label
Royal MailRoyal MailRoyal Mail carries letters and parcels within the UK and internationally. Its business account includes Royal Mail Tracked 24 and 48, and Local Collect. myFulfillment does not replace the carrier: it handles order management, preparation, checks, and returns around label creation. The integration covers Royal Mail only: it offers the Royal Mail services enabled on the merchant account. Parcelforce Worldwide, which has its own PFW API, is not included.
Your operations cover orders, barcode checks, and label creation.
Prepares shipment data and prints the Royal Mail label at packing.
Shipment handed over to Royal Mail.
Royal Mail enters the process after the order is already in myFulfillment. Regardless of which connected sales channel created it, the team follows the same preparation path: check the parcel, choose an allowed service, create the PDF, and record tracking.
At the packing station, the Boostmyshop module sends the shipment to Royal Mail. The PDF is attached to the order and ready to print, with no re-keying in another portal.
See the featureRoyal Mail sends a tracking number for each parcel in the label response. myFulfillment records it on the shipment; the originating channel can then receive the confirmation through its own integration.
Inbound: Royal Mail tracking number with the label response.
See the featureFor the prepared parcel, myFulfillment keeps the Royal Mail services allowed on the account and applies the configured cost and an estimate. That cost comes from your own settings, not from a live Royal Mail quote.
See the featureFor a compatible Royal Mail service, the Boostmyshop module offers Local Collect as a shipping option. Eligibility depends on the service enabled on the account; the operator selects it during shipment, not through a checkout pickup-point selector.
See the featureAn order already in myFulfillment keeps its originating channel. If the shipping rule selects Royal Mail, it continues through preparation and packing in the same flow, with no Royal Mail module to maintain store by store.
Import timing depends on the sales-channel integration; Royal Mail is used at the shipping stage.
See the featureThe return record for an order shipped with Royal Mail stays in myFulfillment: request, receipt, inspection, then refund or exchange. The return shipment is arranged under the services available on the Royal Mail account.
See the featureIn cross-docking, an already-sold item is matched to the incoming purchase order, checked, then sent to the packing station. The Royal Mail label is created only when the parcel is ready to leave.

See how the Royal Mail integration fits into your operations
Day to day, the team prepares the order in myFulfillment, selects the Royal Mail service offered by the rule, prints the PDF, and finds the tracking number on the same shipment.
Services enabled on the Royal Mail account are filtered for the destination and parcel. The operator keeps the suggested service or chooses another allowed service before creating the label.
A UK shipment and an international shipment are prepared on the same screen. The available service depends on the Royal Mail contract and the parcel data.
The Local Collect option can be selected for a compatible service. It is chosen during shipment, not through a pickup-point search or a checkout selector.
Even when return carriage is arranged with Royal Mail, the request, receipt, inspection, and refund or exchange decision are still tracked in myFulfillment.
An order ready to ship, then its address and parcel re-keyed in a Royal Mail portal before dispatch.
Preparation stays in myFulfillment; the Royal Mail PDF and tracking number are attached to the shipment.

GuideThis integration covers the Royal Mail service catalog: domestic classes, Signed For, HM Forces, and international services, filtered to those allowed on the merchant account. No Parcelforce Worldwide service is included. Shipping rules use costs configured in myFulfillment; no live Royal Mail rate is involved. Returns are tracked in myFulfillment while return carriage is arranged with Royal Mail.
First, have your Royal Mail account manager open a ProShipping account: this platform is used for authentication. Then register your application on the Royal Mail API Developer Portal to obtain API access and generate the key pair. Enter the Client ID and Client Secret in the Boostmyshop module with the onboarding team. A test then checks that the PDF and tracking number are attached to the shipment.
The module offers services allowed and enabled on your account. The integration includes Tracked 24, Tracked 48 and several international services, but that list is illustrative: your Royal Mail contract determines what is actually available.
The integration retrieves a PDF label, attaches it to the shipment, and associates one tracking number with each parcel. PDF is the only format provided.
The tracking number arrives with the label and is recorded on the myFulfillment shipment. Its handoff to the sales channel then depends on that channel’s integration. Tracking events remain available from Royal Mail: the integration does not retrieve them.
Local Collect is available as an integration shipping option for a compatible service. Eligibility depends on the account and service. myFulfillment provides no checkout pickup-point selector and no address search.
Yes, when the corresponding international services are enabled on your Royal Mail account. The integration lists International Standard, Tracked, Signed and Economy services; the selected service depends on the contract, destination and parcel.
No. The Royal Mail integration’s service catalog contains no Parcelforce service. Royal Mail publishes a separate PFW API for Parcelforce Worldwide, and the product handles Parcelforce as a separate carrier. No Parcelforce capability is attributed to this integration.
The return record stays in myFulfillment: request, receipt, inspection, then refund or exchange. Return carriage is selected and arranged under the Royal Mail account; the integration does not generate a Royal Mail return label automatically.
No. The integration filters allowed services; then myFulfillment applies the configured cost and an estimate to each one for the shipping rule. No live Royal Mail quote is involved.
