Selling on La Poste.

Six reasons to pair La Poste with e-tailize.
We know what this channel looks for
The assortment grew straight out of what La Poste already does: sending, packing, organising an office. We put your range in those terms first.
Barcodes and attributes decide whether an offer publishes
Every item needs its own EAN or GTIN and the mandatory attributes of its category. Our PIM fills them from one catalogue, not a spreadsheet per channel.
French listings that read like French
Titles and descriptions are translated and improved on the way in, so your offer does not arrive half in English on a site the whole country trusts.
Your carrier choice stays your own
You ship with Courrier, Colissimo, Chronopost or DPD, and e-tailize routes the order and the tracking back into one screen.
The clock on an order is short
Confirm within three working days, ship within two. Accurate stock and instant routing make that promise cheap to keep.

What fits on La Poste
The marketplace sits next to what La Poste already sells: packaging, mailboxes, office supplies, stationery, printing and creative hobby ranges, plus a large collector corner around stamps and coins.
What gets checked first
An offer stalls the moment the data behind it is thin. Missing barcodes, empty attributes, delivery times you cannot hold and ranges far from the postal world are the usual causes.
Questions sellers ask about La Poste.
What does selling on La Poste cost?
La Poste charges partner sellers a subscription of €39.99 per month, plus a commission on each sale that depends on the category. No category rate table is published, so we check what applies to your range rather than quote a number you cannot rely on. Worth knowing: the subscription runs in a month without a single sale too. The e-tailize program starts at €249 per month.
Do I need an EAN to sell on La Poste?
Yes. Every item needs its own EAN or GTIN plus the mandatory attributes of its category, and an item with an empty barcode field does not survive the export. In the e-tailize PIM those fields live in one catalogue, so your offers pass the checks in one go instead of bouncing back.
Who ships the order?
You do. La Poste asks partner sellers to ship with a group service: Courrier, Colissimo, Chronopost or DPD. Buyers follow the tracking on laposte.fr, or on the DPD site. Delivery times and shipping fees are the ones you set per offer, and e-tailize pushes orders and tracking back into one screen.
How fast do I have to react to an order?
La Poste tells buyers that a partner seller confirms an order within three working days and ships within two working days at the latest. That short clock is why accurate stock and instant order routing matter more here than a clever listing ever will.
What does La Poste expect from a seller?
A company in the French trade register, prices in line with the market, command of the delivery services and the service around them, and buyers who stay satisfied. Whether your brand belongs here, and whether it is worth the effort, is exactly what the free exploration call is for.
Why go through e-tailize?
You sell under your own name. We know what this channel looks for and present your brand in those terms, then the software takes over catalogue, translation, listing quality, stock and orders. The fee follows the new revenue, so we only win when you win.
La Poste's setup, in plain English.
La Poste and every other channel run on one e-tailize program. You pay along with the marketplace revenue we build together, not per product. La Poste itself charges the monthly subscription plus a commission on each sale.
The exploration call and the marketplace scan are both free. The program starts at €249 per month, paid at signing, and the fee follows the new marketplace revenue we create together. Cancel any month.
