Key points

What you see in orders

The module does not touch the storefront and does not depend on theme markup. The Click & Drop button sits in the list and on the order page.

What the admin gets

In the settings you enter the key, load the services and pick defaults. In Pro rules pick the service and format by shipping method, destination and weight, and orders go by themselves at a status.

How much it costs

The base version is free. Pro costs 890 UAH, a one-time payment for a lifetime licence.

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

  • OpenCart 4.0.2.x and 4.1.x, 3.0.x or 2.3.0.2 · PHP 7.0+.
  • A Royal Mail Click & Drop account with an API key.
  • Label PDFs in the API are for OBA accounts only.

Version history

v1.0.3 Current 09.11.2026

One product with different options in an order (two lines with the same SKU) is no longer refused by Click & Drop with the error that a SKU must be unique in a package.

v1.0.2 04.11.2026

Orders without a payment address (the OpenCart 4.1 default) now reach Click & Drop with the delivery address as billing.

v1.0.1 OC 4.x 01.11.2026

Before updating to this version, note the settings and the licence key, or replace the files over FTP without uninstalling: later updates keep them.

Full module description

Royal Mail Click & Drop Sync sends OpenCart orders to your Click & Drop account and brings tracking back to the store. Staff do not retype addresses, and the buyer gets the number by e-mail and in the account.

This is an independent integration, not connected with Royal Mail.

What you see in orders

The module does not touch the storefront and does not depend on theme markup. The Click & Drop button sits in the list and on the order page. Tracking is written through the core model: history, status and a buyer e-mail.

What the admin gets

In the settings you enter the key, load the services and pick defaults. In Pro rules pick the service and format by shipping method, destination and weight, and orders go by themselves at a status.

How it works, step by step

  1. You paste the Click & Drop API key.
  2. The plugin loads the services of the account.
  3. You send an order from the list or the order page.
  4. Click & Drop creates the order, and the module keeps its number.
  5. You check tracking with a button, and in Pro it arrives on a schedule.

Under the hood

  • Scheduled tracking runs through cron or every 15 minutes from storefront views.
  • The API has no order update: change an address after sending in Click & Drop.
  • The storefront does not change, so themes and checkouts do not matter.

How to install

  1. Extensions → Installer: upload the archive for your version and keep the file name.
  2. OpenCart 2.3: the Installer copies files only with FTP enabled. Without FTP copy the contents of upload/ to the shop root by hand.
  3. OpenCart 2.3 and 3.x: Extensions → Modifications → Refresh.
  4. Extensions → Modules → Click & Drop → install button → Edit.
  5. Paste the key, load the services and send one test order.
  6. For Pro: paste the key or start the 7-day trial.
