Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Which third party extensions are supported and compatible?
A: While our extension is compatible with many third-party checkout extensions, we do not provide support for third-party checkout extensions from OneStepCheckout.com, Amasty, and MagePlaza. Although there are numerous webshops that successfully use these extensions in combination with our Postcode Service extension, we cannot guarantee their compatibility due to potential issues arising from custom implementations. As a result, we are unable to offer support for any issues that may arise from their use.
