Delivery settings
The Delivery settings tab is the place where we can set the delivery methods we want to offer
our customers. By default, options such as Personal collection, InPost Parcel Locker, Courier and Orlen Paczka are added.
The delivery settings are very flexible, because they allow almost any definition of the available delivery options.
We set the price and the data that will be required for a given delivery method ourselves. This means that even if the default settings are not sufficient, we can easily create another delivery method with the options that are best for us.
The default delivery methods come in two variants - with online payment and without (payment on site or cash on delivery). Initially, however, only the personal collection options are active. If you decide to offer delivery via InPost Parcel Locker, Orlen Paczka or a courier, you have to activate the relevant delivery channel yourself. Remember that you can also adjust the delivery price list to your own needs and possibilities.
Note
InPost Parcel Lockers and Orlen Paczka are Polish pick-up point networks. Outside Poland, use the personal collection and courier options, or add your own delivery method.
Tip
Delivery methods can also be restricted for a specific price group - e.g. offer business customers personal collection only.
Available options
Here is a list of the available options with a short explanation.

Note, however, that setting the status to “Active” will not always result in the given delivery method being available.
