Troubleshooting

Sendle not showing at checkout

Sendle only appears for orders that originate from within the United States or Australia. United States origins can ship domestically and Australia origins can ship domestic and internationally. If your products aren’t shipping from one of these countries, Sendle will not be available for your customer at checkout.

Installed but not validated

Your carrier is installed and configured, but not validated. Successful validation depends on the accurate entry of the account information required by each carrier. If you do not have the correct information you will cannot validate your carrier and receive live rates.
