Integration with Nova Poshta for a website and online store

A Nova Poshta integration adds a choice of city and branch to checkout, calculates delivery and creates a waybill from the order card. The buyer sees clear terms, and the manager works without entering data by hand. The service suits stores with any range of goods where the product travels as a parcel. We check the rates and cash-on-delivery terms against the carrier's current rules.

  • a choice of city, branch, parcel locker or courier address on the checkout page;
  • cost calculation by weight, dimensions and declared value;
  • creation of an express waybill right from the order;
  • printing of the label and sending the shipment number to the buyer;
  • parcel statuses in the order and in messages to the customer;
  • cash on delivery and returned shipments tracked in orders.

Nova Poshta integration: what the buyer and the store owner expect

Most Ukrainian buyers are used to picking up parcels at a Nova Poshta branch or parcel locker, so Nova Poshta integration with a website becomes a basic requirement for an online store. The buyer enters the city name, picks a branch from the list and immediately sees how much delivery costs.

For the store owner, the integration saves time: the recipient's details go into the waybill automatically, address errors happen less often, and the shipment status is visible without going to the carrier's website. Someone who searches for connect Nova Poshta to an online store usually wants exactly this.

What the Nova Poshta integration includes

  • a directory of cities, branches and parcel lockers with search by name;
  • delivery to an address with fields for the street, building and apartment;
  • cost calculation based on the order parameters;
  • creation of an express waybill and printing of the label;
  • the cash-on-delivery service and tracking of returns;
  • status updates and notifying the buyer when the parcel arrives;
  • saving the shipment number in the order.

The set of features depends on the platform: on Horoshop, Nova Poshta is one of the built-in integrations; on WordPress or a custom-built website we select a module or connect the API.

How we connect Nova Poshta

  1. We check the website platform and choose the method: Horoshop's built-in settings, a module or custom development via the API.
  2. You provide access to the Nova Poshta account and an API key; the business owner signs the contract with the carrier.
  3. We set up the sender details, delivery methods and pricing rules.
  4. We test on real orders: city, branch, parcel locker, courier, cash on delivery.
  5. We show the manager how to create waybills and track statuses.

A basic connection takes a few working days, and we discuss more complex scenarios during the consultation.

Cost of the Nova Poshta integration

The cost of the integration depends on the platform, the scenarios you need and the state of the website, so we calculate it after a free consultation. If the store is still in your plans, a launch on Horoshop or WordPress starts from $500 – details on the online store development and ready-made turnkey stores pages. Delivery can be added to an existing website separately. We check the rates, limits and cash-on-delivery rules against Nova Poshta's current terms before work begins. You can book a consultation on the Contacts page.
