Overview
Flat-rate and weight-based shipping can charge too much for a short trip or too little for a long one. This plugin measures the distance from your store to the customer's address and applies the rate you set for that range. Customers know the shipping cost at checkout, and your charges match the real delivery effort.
You define pricing rules in distance brackets, and the plugin applies them to each order. If you run more than one physical store, you can add several origins so the rate comes from the nearest location. It works with WooCommerce and its shipping methods, so it suits local shops, regional sellers and stores that ship nationwide.
Features
- Distance-based rate calculation: The plugin measures the distance between your store and the customer's address in real time and uses it to work out the shipping cost for the order.
- Custom distance brackets: Set your own pricing rules by distance range, so each bracket carries the shipping charge you choose and you stay in control of what customers pay.
- Multiple store origins: If you run several physical stores, configure each one as an origin. Rates are then based on the nearest location to the customer.
- WooCommerce integration: The plugin works with WooCommerce and keeps your current setup in place while adding distance-based shipping to your store.
- Works with shipping methods: It supports a range of WooCommerce shipping options, which lets you build a shipping approach that fits your own business model.
- Setup without coding: The interface uses simple, clear options, so store owners can configure distance rates without writing any code.
- Rates shown at checkout: Customers see an accurate shipping rate upfront during checkout, so they know what to expect before they pay.
- Mobile-friendly estimates: Shipping estimates stay consistent for customers whatever device or screen size they use to shop in your store.
Best for
- Local businesses that deliver within a set area
- Regional or nationwide WooCommerce stores
- Merchants running several physical store locations
