Part 1: Place Orders
Why Use This?
The API is fast but can't use AliExpress coupons. The extension simulates manual checkout – so you get the speed of automation with the savings of manual ordering.
Quick Steps
Before placing an order, make sure you've claimed your AliExpress coupons first.
Tip: Use [AliExpress Coupon AutoGrab: Save Money on Every Order] to claim coupons automatically with one click.
Then follow these steps:
- Go to Open Orders → Awaiting Order.
- Select an order and click Order.
- In the pop-up, choose "Order via Chrome Extension".
- The extension automatically applies one of your valid coupons to each order..

Tip: For full setup (currency, payment method) and step-by-step instructions, see [How to Place Orders Using DSers Chrome Extension].
After Placing an Order
AliExpress page settings (country, language, and currency) may reset automatically after placing an order via the extension. You can control this behavior in Options → Order Settings:
- Do not reset – keeps your settings as they are
- Select a specific country, language, or currency to reset to

Key Things to Know
| What | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Claim coupons first | The extension applies coupons you've already claimed – it doesn't claim them for you |
| Promo Code not supported | The extension can't apply Promo Codes – use manual checkout if needed |
| Set currency in advance | Choose your preferred currency in Options before ordering. Note: supplier must support it, otherwise it defaults to USD |
| Order sync after plugin orders still goes through API | After placing an order via the extension, status updates and tracking sync still rely on the API and your linked AE account – keep your account linked |
| DSers order cost may not match AliExpress final payment | The extension doesn't return coupon data to DSers – check the financial details on AliExpress for the actual amount |
Part 2: Sync Order Status
Why Use This?
DSers syncs order status automatically, but sometimes you need updates faster. The extension gives you instant sync – and unlike the API (limited to 5 times per day), the extension has no limit.

How to Sync
- Log into your AliExpress account and keep the Order List page open.
- In DSers, go to Open Orders → click Sync AliExpress Order.
- Select Sync via DSers Chrome Extension.
Part 3: Update Tracking Numbers
Why Use This?
Sometimes suppliers change tracking numbers after shipping. If this happens, your customers get inaccurate tracking info – which leads to confusion and complaints.
The extension fixes this by fetching the latest numbers and updating both DSers and Shopify.
Tip: For a dedicated step-by-step guide, see [Manually Updating Tracking Numbers via the DSers Chrome Extension].
Quick Steps
- Log into AliExpress and open the Order List page.
- In DSers, go to Open Orders → click Sync AliExpress Order.
- Select Sync the latest Tracking Number with the Chrome Extension.
