To use Canada Post's Sell OnlineTM Shipping Module in Virtuemart you will need a Canada Post Merchant ID. Here are the steps to obtain one.
First, sign up with Canada Post for a VentureOne Preferred Small Business Client account (it's free).
Once you have your VentureOne account #, send an e-mail to [email protected], requesting your account be registered on the Sell Online Server. Be sure to include the following fields with your relevant information filled out afterwards:
CUSTOMER / VENTURE ONE NUMBER:
COMPANY NAME:
ADDRESS:
CITY:
PROVINCE:
POSTAL CODE :
MAIN CONTACT:
TELEPHONE NUMBER:
The [email protected] e-mail appears to be managed manually by a human, so it may be a business day or so (based on Cybersalt's experience) before you receive an e-mail back with your Retailer ID for the Sell Online server. That e-mail will also contain instructions for setting up the rest of your shipping profile with Canada Post.
