Getting started with Corkship

Getting started with Corkship

Corkship is a bring-your-own-account Australia Post eParcel integration for Shopify and Commerce7 stores. It lets you create shipments, generate shipping labels, and submit end-of-day manifests — all from inside your store admin.

What you'll need before installing

Before setting up Corkship, have the following ready:

Australia Post eParcel account An active eParcel contract with Australia Post. Your existing contracted rates apply — Corkship does not mark up postage.

eParcel API credentials Your API Key, API Secret, and Account Number from the Australia Post Developer Centre. See our guide: How to get your Australia Post API key.

Store admin access Full admin access to your Shopify or Commerce7 store.

Sender address Your dispatch address — this becomes the return address printed on every shipping label.

How Corkship works

  1. Install Corkship from the Shopify App Store or Commerce7 App Marketplace
  2. Connect your Australia Post eParcel account using your API credentials
  3. Configure your parcel sizes and sender address
  4. Create shipments from your pending orders — Corkship assigns the right carton and submits to Australia Post
  5. Print labels as PDFs and attach to parcels
  6. Close your daily manifest before your Australia Post driver arrives
