1. Setup of the plugin
1. Plugin installation
- Download the mame-track-consignments-woocommerce-[version].zip file from your mamedev.ch account.
- In the WordPress backend on the “Plugins > Add New” page, click on the “Upload Plugin” button at the top and upload the ZIP file (not the unzipped folder).
- Activate the plugin under “Plugins > Installed Plugins”.
2. Activate web service at Swiss Post
In order to connect the plugin to the Swiss Post interface, a customer login is required for business customers with a billing relationship with Swiss Post (Swiss Post contact).
After that, the “Track consignments” web service must be activated by Swiss Post’s Web Services support.
There should then be a new technical user in the Customer Center under “Users & authorizations” (the user name for the technical user begins with “TU_”). If there is no technical user, they can be added using the “Register user” button. A password can be set for the technical user via the edit button. Username and password are required for further setup in the WordPress backend.
The following images describe the process of creating a new technical user.




3. Settings in WooCommerce
After installing the plugin (see step 1), the details of the technical user (step 2) can be entered under “Track Consignments > Settings”. Technical user name (TU_…) and the associated password are required.
After saving the settings, click on “Load” under “Load data” to load data from the Swiss Post server. If a green message appears afterwards, the connection was established correctly and the data was loaded.
