PostFinance for WooCommerce Plugin

The plugin Barcode for WooCommerce allows you to create parcel labels directly from within your WordPress backend without logging into your Swiss Post account.

Labels can be created and ordered via the integrated editor. The editor supports all products available for the Webservice Barcode and Barcode via the Digital Commerce API (except DIRECT). The WooCommerce integration allows you to automatically copy the address data from WooCommerce orders. With bulk orders you can create labels for multiple WooCommerce orders at once. The label editor and the plugin can also be used without WooCommerce, i.e. you can also order labels by manually entering the recipient’s address.

When a label is created, it can either be attached directly to WooCommerce admin emails or to custom admin emails, the content of which can be defined using dynamic template tags.

With the template feature you can order labels within no time. Create templates for often used Barcode products and complete an order with a few clicks. Labels can also be generated automatically based on custom rules. Additionally, you can add tracking numbers to customer’s emails with links to the tracking status on the website of the Swiss Post. The plugin also supports the WooCommerce Shipment Tracking plugin by automatically adding tracking numbers to orders.

With the various print formats available, you can either print single labels for label printers or multiple labels on one A4 page (four A6 labels or eight A7 labels) for label sheets. When using label sheets, the last label position can be saved so that the next labels are printed on the following positions.

Labels are ordered via a secure SSL connection and can be downloaded from the WordPress backend anytime.

Plugin updates are available on the plugins screen of your WordPress backend after activating the license.

Plugin bundle

Barcode for WooCommerce can also purchased as a bundle which also contains the plugin WebStamp for WooCommerce (see right side for prices). When renewing a bundle license you get 30% off the original bundle price.

The bundle allows you the order and print both parcel labels and letter stamps directly from within WordPress.
