How do I connect Sendcloud to bol?

If you sell on bol, you want orders out the door fast and without hassle. By connecting Sendcloud to bol you pull your bol orders in automatically, print shipping labels in a few clicks, and send track & trace back to the customer. Here is exactly how to set up the connection and what you need.

Connect Sendcloud to bol in 4 steps

Sendcloud is a shipping platform for creating labels and tracking shipments; bol is a large Dutch and Belgian sales channel. You set up the link from the Sendcloud dashboard:

1. Create a Sendcloud account if you do not have one yet.

2. In Sendcloud, open the sales channels overview and choose to add a channel.

3. Select bol from the list and log in to your bol seller account to grant Sendcloud permission.

4. Confirm the connection. Your bol orders then show up in Sendcloud automatically, ready to process.

From there, Sendcloud imports your orders, you pick a carrier such as PostNL or DPD, and you print the label. The track & trace goes back to bol automatically, so your customer can follow the shipment.

Why the connection saves you time

Without a connection, you retype every address by hand and paste track & trace codes back into bol one by one. The link removes that retyping. You process several orders in a batch, cut down on wrong addresses, and your customer gets a shipping notice sooner. To streamline shipping further, it helps to manage your carriers in one place alongside your orders and inventory. Take a look at carriers and shipping labels in ShopLinkr.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a bol API key?

To set up the link, you authorize Sendcloud through your bol seller account. Keep your login details handy; depending on the step, Sendcloud asks for permission or for bol API credentials. The on-screen steps walk you through it.

Can I connect multiple bol accounts?

Yes. Add each bol account separately as a sales channel in Sendcloud and authorize them one by one. After that, you manage all orders from a single dashboard.

How do I test that the connection works?

Place a test order on bol and process it in Sendcloud. Check that the label is generated correctly and that the track & trace makes it back to bol.
