About Sendcloud
Sendcloud keeps widening carrier coverage while making the merchant-facing config do more of the setup work.
Sendcloud's window splits cleanly in two. One half is steady carrier and route accretion — DPD France ZPL labels, Colissimo France Eco, GLS cash-on-delivery across Austria, France and Germany, PostNord returns across the Nordics, delivery notes for Geodis and DPD France. The other half is configuration tooling: the tracking page became a set of switchable modules rather than fixed themes, and Checkout can now pull transactional rates automatically into a price table instead of leaving merchants to look them up per country and weight bracket.
