WooCommerce Distance Rate Shipping

WooCommerce Distance Rate Shipping

WooCommerce Distance Rate Shipping is a plugin that allows you to charge customers for delivery of items based on how far away they are from the store. It’s perfect for businesses that hire out equipment or offer takeaway services, where delivery costs vary depending on the distance.

The plugin uses Google Maps, the Google Distance Matrix API, and Google Maps Embed API to calculate the distance between the store and the customer’s location. You can set up rules to charge shipping based on the distance and total travel time, or the number of items in the cart, weight of the items, or the total value of the cart.

Key Features

• Configure minimum and maximum limits and discounts for shipping rates
• Supports kilometers and miles
• Option to set preferred routes and restrictions
• Optionally display the distance information to customers

The plugin requires a Google account and some of its features are paid services.

Conclusion

WooCommerce Distance Rate Shipping is a useful plugin for businesses that need to charge customers for delivery based on distance. It’s easy to set up and configure, and integrates well with Google Maps and other APIs.
