Features
Everything between “order placed” and “parcel posted”
One dashboard replaces the spreadsheet, the copy-paste and the eCommHub portal tab you keep losing.
Shopify orders, imported automatically
Connect your store once. New unfulfilled orders appear in EirLink within seconds via webhooks — no copying and pasting addresses.
An Post labels in seconds
Generate single labels or batches of up to 100 with one click. Download a merged PDF and print the lot.
Your An Post account, your rates
EirLink connects to your own eCommHub API key. Postage bills straight to your An Post account — we never sit between you and your carrier.
Fulfilment synced back
The moment a label is created, the tracking number is pushed to Shopify, the order is marked fulfilled, and your customer gets notified.
CSV and manual orders
Selling at markets or on other channels? Import a CSV or key in an order manually — same labels, same tracking.
Tracking that updates itself
EirLink polls An Post for scan events every half hour, so the dashboard always shows where every parcel is.
Batch printing
Friday dispatch, done before your coffee goes cold
Select up to 100 orders and create every label in one go. EirLink talks to An Post in parallel, shows you live progress per parcel, and hands you a single merged PDF — load the printer once and ship the lot.
- Live per-order progress with clear failures
- One merged, print-ready PDF
- Failed labels retry without re-doing the batch

Live tracking
“Where's my order?” answers itself
EirLink polls An Post for scan events every thirty minutes and pushes tracking numbers into Shopify the moment a label exists. Your customers get their shipping email with live tracking — and you get fewer support messages.
- Full scan history on every shipment
- Automatic Shopify fulfilment + customer notification
- Failed syncs flagged with one-click retry
Every channel
Shopify, CSV or keyed in by hand — one queue
Market stall sales, wholesale orders, a spreadsheet from another platform — bring them all into the same orders list. Every order gets the same one-click label, the same tracking and the same clean paper trail.
- CSV template with row-level error reporting
- Manual orders with full customs fields (HS codes, IOSS)
- International labels with the right declarations

What you'll never pay EirLink for
Trust & security
Boring about security, on purpose
You're trusting us with your carrier account and your customers' addresses. We treat both accordingly.
Keys encrypted at rest
Your An Post API key is encrypted before it touches the database and never appears in logs.
GDPR-ready, EU-hosted
Customer data is processed within the EU and only for creating your labels and tracking.
Scoped Shopify access
We request only order and fulfilment permissions — never products, pricing or payments.
Revocable in one click
Delete your API key or disconnect a store at any moment. No retention games, no exit emails.
FAQ
Questions, answered
Do I need my own An Post account?
Yes — EirLink connects to your own An Post eCommHub API key. That's a feature, not a limitation: you keep your negotiated rates, postage bills directly to your An Post account, and you can stop using EirLink any time without losing your carrier relationship.
How do I get an eCommHub API key?
Log in to your An Post eCommHub account and request API access, or ask your An Post account manager. Once you have the key, paste it into EirLink — we verify it against the live API instantly and store it encrypted.
Does EirLink mark orders as fulfilled in Shopify?
Yes. As soon as a label is created, the tracking number is pushed to Shopify, the order is marked fulfilled, and Shopify sends your customer their shipping-confirmation email with live tracking.
What if I sell outside Shopify?
Import a CSV (markets, Etsy exports, wholesale) or key orders in manually. They join the same queue, get the same labels and the same automatic tracking updates.
Is there a markup on postage?
Never. Postage is billed by An Post at your own account rates. EirLink charges for the software only — and during early access, that's free.
Is my data safe?
Your An Post API key is encrypted at rest, all traffic runs over TLS, and your data is processed within the EU in line with GDPR. You can disconnect a store or delete your key at any moment.
