FAQ - Frequently asked questions
What types of product can be shipped with Lettre Simple de La Poste?
Lettre Simple is suitable for small goods and thin mail items within the conditions set by La Poste, with a weight of up to 2 kg according to the scope provided here. It may suit products such as thin books, accessories, jewellery, cosmetics, small parts or low-volume items.
Is tracking available for Lettre Simple shipments?
No. Post-shipment tracking is not supported by this connector. Lettre Simple is therefore best suited to workflows where shipping cost takes priority over post-shipment visibility.
Can Lettre Simple be used for orders from several marketplaces and an e-commerce website?
Yes, if your sales channels are already connected to Shippingbo. You can then centralise orders in the same environment and route eligible orders to Lettre Simple according to your shipping rules.
How can printing be managed to save time with Lettre Simple in Shippingbo?
Shippingbo lets you generate the Lettre Simple label within your logistics workflow, using the configuration options available in the connector. This avoids managing this shipping method in a separate process and keeps day-to-day operations simpler.
Can the Lettre Simple label be customised in Shippingbo?
Yes, depending on configuration. You can show or hide certain operational information, including reference, source, weight, instructions, email, telephone, free text or a custom stamp.
Is Lettre Simple de La Poste suitable for all e-commerce workflows?
No. This connector is relevant for mail sent from France to France, without post-shipment tracking, return labels or multi-parcel support. For more complex workflows or more demanding customer promises, a different carrier scenario should be validated.
