WC iDistance Rate Shipping

The WC iDistance Rate Shipping extensions allows you to easily offer shipping rates based on the distance or total travel time to your customer.

Rules can be set up to charge based on the distance, total travel time as well as charging extra based on the total cart value, total weight of the products in the cart, and the number of items in the cart.

The WC iDistance Rates Shipping extension is perfect for the store owner who wants to charge customers for delivery of items based on how far away they are from the store. A perfect example would be for store hiring out equipment or a take away store.

if you run a service that produces home cooked meals but would like to charge more for delivery based on the further the customer lives from you then the WC iDistance Rate Shipping extension is perfect.

The use cases are endless and can cover pretty much every scenario for charging shipping based on the total distance or travel time.

Google API

This plugin requires a Google account as it makes use of Google Maps, the Google Distance Matrix API, and Google Maps Embed API. Some of these features are paid services. The route returned (and subsequent total distance) is used to calculate the cost according to the data returned by Distance Matrix API’s “Driving” Mode.
