Key Features
Native Magento carrier implementing AbstractCarrierOnline/CarrierInterface — Canada Post services appear as real checkout shipping methods, not redirects
Live rate quoting via collectRates() against the Canada Post Rating API using ship-from postal code, cart weight and package dimensions
Service mapping for Regular Parcel, Expedited Parcel, Xpresspost and Priority across domestic, US and international destinations
Label, commercial invoice and end-of-day manifest PDF generation from the order/shipment admin via the Create Shipment API
Tracking PIN write-back through a sales_order_shipment_save_after observer onto the shipment track record (customer account + email visibility)
Signature, coverage/insurance and proof-of-age option flags configurable per service and passed in the shipment payload
Admin configuration under Stores → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods via system.xml, with credentials stored encrypted and per-website scope
ACL-guarded admin controllers (Ecosire_CanadaPost::shipping) so only authorized roles can buy postage or print labels
Contract/commercial pricing support via your Canada Post customer number and contract ID, with fallback to non-contracted rates
Configurable package/dimension rules and free-shipping threshold handling consistent with Magento's shipping method conventions
Graceful degradation: API timeouts or errors fall back to a configured rate or hide the method rather than breaking checkout
Optional REST/GraphQL exposure of available Canada Post rates for headless (PWA Studio / Adobe Commerce) storefronts
About this Product
Canadian merchants on Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce shouldn't be stuck with flat-rate guesses or manual Snap Ship label entry. This extension wires the Canada Post Sell Online / Rating and Shipping & Returns APIs directly into your checkout and order workflow as a proper Magento carrier.
Why Choose Canada Post Shipping for Magento 2
Native Magento carrier implementing AbstractCarrierOnline/CarrierInterface — Canada Post services appear as real checkout shipping methods, not redirects
Live rate quoting via collectRates() against the Canada Post Rating API using ship-from postal code, cart weight and package dimensions
Service mapping for Regular Parcel, Expedited Parcel, Xpresspost and Priority across domestic, US and international destinations
Label, commercial invoice and end-of-day manifest PDF generation from the order/shipment admin via the Create Shipment API
Tracking PIN write-back through a sales_order_shipment_save_after observer onto the shipment track record (customer account + email visibility)
Signature, coverage/insurance and proof-of-age option flags configurable per service and passed in the shipment payload
The module ships under app/code/Ecosire/CanadaPost, registering a custom carrier model that implements Magento\Shipping\Model\Carrier\AbstractCarrierOnline and CarrierInterface. Live rates are quoted via the collectRates() flow using your ship-from postal code, cart weight and dimensions, returning Canada Post services (Regular Parcel, Expedited Parcel, Xpresspost, Priority) as native checkout shipping methods. Admin configuration lives under Stores → Configuration → Sales → Shipping Methods with full system.xml fields, encrypted API credentials, and per-website scope.
Label and manifest generation runs from the order/shipment admin grid via a controller guarded by an ACL resource (Ecosire_CanadaPost::shipping), calling the Create Shipment endpoint and storing the returned PDF artifact. Domestic, US and international shipments are handled through a configurable service-to-method mapping, with optional signature, coverage/insurance, and proof-of-age flags passed in the request payload. On shipment creation, an observer on sales_order_shipment_save_after writes the Canada Post tracking PIN back to the shipment track record, so customers see real tracking in their account and emails.
Because every store's catalog weights, packaging rules, and contract numbers differ, we build this to order: discovery on your Canada Post account type (commercial vs. Solutions for Small Business), implementation, installation on your staging environment, UAT against your real cart scenarios, then production deployment. It is delivered as installable source you own — not a black-box subscription. Compatible with Open Source and Adobe Commerce 2.4.x.
What you get
- Installable Magento 2 module source (Ecosire/CanadaPost) under app/code, version-pinned to your 2.4.x line
- di.xml, system.xml, acl.xml, events.xml and module registration wired and documented
- Installation and configuration on your staging environment, including Canada Post API credential setup
- Service-to-shipping-method mapping configured to your catalog (domestic, US, international)
- UAT pass against your real cart, weight and destination scenarios before go-live
- Production deployment plus a short admin runbook covering rate config, label printing and manifest workflow
- 30 days of post-launch support for bug fixes and configuration adjustments
Who this is for

Runs a Magento 2 Open Source store shipping mostly domestic parcels and wants accurate Canada Post rates at checkout plus in-admin label printing instead of re-keying every order into Snap Ship.
Operations / fulfillment manager

Magento agency / lead developer
Building or maintaining a client's Adobe Commerce store and wants a clean, ACL-guarded, service-contract-based Canada Post carrier they can review, extend, and deploy through their existing CI rather than a sealed marketplace binary.

Frequently Asked Questions about Canada Post Shipping for Magento 2
+How long until it's installed and working on my store?
Typical delivery is 2–3 weeks from kickoff. That covers discovery on your Canada Post account and catalog, building the module, installing it on your staging environment, UAT against your real cart scenarios, and production deployment. Timelines shift with complexity (contract pricing, headless storefronts, custom packaging rules) — we confirm a firm date after the discovery call.
+Do I get ongoing support and updates?
Yes. Every build includes 30 days of post-launch support for bug fixes and configuration tuning. Beyond that we offer optional retainers covering Magento 2.4.x security-patch compatibility, Canada Post API changes, and new feature work. You own the module source, so you're never locked out of your own integration.
+Does this work with Adobe Commerce as well as Magento Open Source?
Yes. The module uses standard service contracts, di.xml and the carrier framework, so it runs on both Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce 2.4.x. For headless setups we can expose Canada Post rates over REST/GraphQL for PWA Studio or a custom storefront.
+Do I need my own Canada Post account and API access?
Yes. You provide a Canada Post Developer Program account with API credentials and, if applicable, your commercial customer/contract number. We configure them (stored encrypted in Magento) during installation. We can guide you through registration if you don't have access yet.
+Can it print labels and manifests, or only quote rates at checkout?
Both. Live rating at checkout is the baseline, and the module also generates shipping labels, commercial invoices for cross-border parcels, and end-of-day manifests directly from the order/shipment admin via the Canada Post Create Shipment API — with the tracking PIN written back to the order automatically.
