Add a Postaplus account
This guide walks through setting up a Postaplus account in the Carriyo Dashboard. It covers the required roles, the credentials to collect, and every field Postaplus expects.

Configure the account
The new account opens on its detail page. General settings work the same way for every carrier: the Active toggle, default label and service, and currency. See Add a carrier account for the full reference to these shared settings — default label, merchant access, going live, and common mistakes.
Go to the account page
View the account details
Set the default label format
Set up status callbacks
Postaplus sends shipment status by webhook, but it has to be registered on Postaplus's side. Copy the callback details from the account page and share them with your Postaplus contact. This is a one-time setup.
Share callback settings with your carrier
Merchant access
On multi-merchant tenants, restrict the account to specific merchants via the Permissions tab, then Save.
Add merchants to this carrier account
