# How do I connect DPD to Shopify?

> Connect DPD to Shopify with ShopLinkr: pull in orders automatically, print shipping labels in one click and send track & trace back to your store.

Want to connect DPD to Shopify without creating a label by hand for every order? With ShopLinkr you pull your Shopify orders in automatically, print a DPD shipping label in one click and send the track & trace straight back to your store. DPD is a parcel carrier, Shopify is a webshop platform, and ShopLinkr connects the two so your whole shipping process runs in one screen.

## Why connect DPD and Shopify through ShopLinkr

Shopify does not create DPD labels on its own. Without a connection you retype address details in the DPD portal and paste the tracking back into your order by hand. That costs time and invites typos. ShopLinkr takes that step off your plate:

- Your [Shopify orders](/en/features/orders) come in automatically, alongside channels like bol, WooCommerce and Kaufland.
- You create a DPD label in one click, or fully automatically with AutoPrint as soon as an order is ready.
- The track & trace is sent back to Shopify automatically, so your customer gets a shipping email right away.

Because everything runs centrally, you can combine DPD with other [carriers](/en/features/carriers) like PostNL and MyParcel and pick the right one per order.

## Step by step: connecting DPD to Shopify

You set the connection up once, then shipping runs on its own:

1. Create a ShopLinkr account and connect your Shopify store as a sales channel.
2. Add DPD as a carrier and enter your DPD account details.
3. Set which DPD shipping method is used by default and, if you like, link your label printer to AutoPrint.
4. Process a test order, check the label and the track & trace, then switch on automatic processing.

Handling larger volumes? With [pick lists](/en/features/pick-lists) you walk a smart route through your warehouse, scan products at the bin and print the DPD label right at the packing station. Picking, packing and shipping become one continuous flow.

## No more slip-ups in stock and shipping

If you sell on other channels besides Shopify, ShopLinkr keeps your [inventory in sync in real time](/en/features/inventory). When you sell a product, the stock drops across all your channels at once, so you never sell what you no longer have. Returns, purchase advice and reports on revenue and margin per product live in the same system, so you do not have to switch between separate tools.

## Frequently asked questions

### Do I need a separate DPD app from the Shopify App Store?

No. You connect both Shopify and DPD to ShopLinkr. Orders, labels and tracking run through ShopLinkr, so you do not have to wire up several standalone apps.

### Does it work with multiple carriers at the same time?

Yes. Alongside DPD you can connect PostNL, MyParcel or Sendcloud and choose which carrier to use per order. You can find an overview on the [integrations](/en/integrations) page.
