Key points

What the free version does

The settings hold the test and live Lob keys, the US return address, the postcard size and the front and back text.

What Pro adds

An automatic postcard when the order reaches a chosen status, with a minimum total and a daily cap (a guard against a surprise bill): above the cap no card is sent and the order gets a note.

How much it costs

The base version is free. Pro costs 1490 UAH for a one-year licence. A year of updates, technical support and all Pro features.

The trial starts when you ask

A fresh install is the free version, nothing switches on by itself. The “Try Pro for 7 days” button → e-mail → the key right in the window and by e-mail.

One key — a site and a staging copy

Moving the site? Unlink the licence on the old domain and activate it on the new one yourself. A staging copy (staging., dev.) works with the same key and does not take a site slot. For studios — keys for 5 or 25 sites, or unlimited.

Technical requirements

  • WordPress 6.2+, WooCommerce 7.0+, PHP 7.4+.
  • A Lob account; postcards and addresses are US only.

Full module description

Lob Direct Mail for WooCommerce sends a printed postcard to the buyer through Lob from the order screen and checks US addresses. For shops with customers in the United States. Lob has no connector of its own for WooCommerce (checked 2 November 2026: it is not on its integrations page).

This module has never run against the real Lob. We had no Lob account, so nothing was ever sent to it.

What the free version does

The settings hold the test and live Lob keys, the US return address, the postcard size and the front and back text. The order screen has Send postcard and Check address buttons. In test mode Lob creates the card but never prints or mails it. Live mode without a live key is refused, a key of the wrong kind is not accepted in the other slot and keys are never printed back. If Lob is down or refuses, the order stays untouched, the reason is shown in plain words and a note is written.

What Pro adds

An automatic postcard when the order reaches a chosen status, with a minimum total and a daily cap (a guard against a surprise bill): above the cap no card is sent and the order gets a note. Letters (a Send letter button). An address check on the classic checkout: an undeliverable address stops the order with a plain message; if Lob is down the order is not blocked. A repeated status change does not make a second card, which we checked.

How it works, step by step

  1. In Lob copy the test and live secret keys (Settings → API Keys).
  2. Paste them and the return address in WooCommerce → Lob Direct Mail.
  3. Open an order and press Send postcard in test mode.
  4. When it looks right switch to Live: from then on every card is billed by Lob.

Under the hood

  • Each postcard carries an Idempotency-Key so a retry cannot create a second one.
  • The front and back templates are plain text areas with merge variables such as first_name, order_number, order_total.
  • HPOS compatible.

How to install

  1. Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin: choose the zip and activate it.
  2. WooCommerce → Lob Direct Mail: keys and return address.
  3. Enter the service credentials and test the connection.
  4. Try one test order before you switch the automation on.

The module is not on wordpress.org yet: the free version and Pro are one archive from this page. Without a key it works as the free version.

@catcode_support Setup, compatibility, activation
Is this an official Lob plugin?

No. Lob has no WooCommerce connector; we made the module and the trademark belongs to Lob.

Does the shop pay for the cards?

Test mode prints nothing and costs nothing. In Live mode Lob bills every card.

What happens after the trial?

Pro switches off, the free part keeps working.
