<p>Founded in 1907 as a messenger company in the United States, UPS has grown into a multi-billion-dollar corporation by clearly focusing on enabling commerce around the globe.</p>
<p>This extension requires that your server has <a href="http://php.net/manual/en/book.simplexml.php">SimpleXML</a> installed. It primarily works with <code>in</code>s and <code>lb</code>s, but other units can be converted automatically. The Rates API will return rates in the currency of the country in which the API was registered so make sure this matches your store.</p>
<p>UPS can calculate quotes worldwide, as it handles both domestic and international parcels:</p>

UPS Shipping Method

<p>Get shipping rates from the UPS API which handles both domestic and international parcels.</p>

<p>Let your customers book reservations, appointments or rentals on their own — no phone calls required. Save yourself time and fill up your calendar by letting your site do the work for you.</p>
<h2>Let customers book classes, schedule appointments, or reserve items</h2>
<p><a href="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Screen-Shot-2021-07-16-at-09.40.07.png"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-8331041 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Screen-Shot-2021-07-16-at-09.40.07.png?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="285" /></a></p>
<p>Whatever options you want to offer to your customers, Bookings makes it possible:</p>
<ul>
<li><b>Define set options</b>, like fixed time slots for a class, appointment or guided tour</li>
<li><b>Let customers choose the times that work best</b> by giving them the flexibility to book whatever range they need, like checking into a hotel</li>
</ul>
<p>With either option, you can also<b> block time off as un-bookable</b>, leaving you time to take care of your other priorities and<b> create buffers between bookings</b>, to make sure the schedule works for you.</p>
<p>Get as specific as you want with your time slots—the extension allows for bookings in days, hours, even minutes.</p>
<h2>Book one-on-one appointments or multi-person events</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-395570" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bookings-multiperson@2x.jpg?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="277" /></p>
<p>You can set the minimum and maximum number of participants: limit a booking to one-at-a-time for appointments or let multiple people reserve a class or tour.</p>
<h2>Offer special pricing for groups, days, or individuals</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-395549" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bookings-costs@2x.jpg?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="238" /></p>
<p>Offer discounts for groups or people booking multiple slots, show lower prices for early birds, higher prices on weekends, or special prices for kids. Bookings lets you customize pricing any way you want.</p>
<h2>Show availability in the customer’s time zone</h2>
<p>If your services are online or if you’re shipping something to the customer, display your availability in the customer’s time zone so they book the time they really need. Whether bookings come from New York, New Mexico or New Zealand, they’ll be within the hours you set, so no surprise appointments!</p>
<p>It’s perfect for virtual classes, online appointments, or rentals that need to be delivered to the customer.</p>
<h2>Require confirmation, offer free cancellations — it’s all up to you</h2>
<p><img class="size-medium wp-image-8331037 aligncenter" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Screen-Shot-2021-07-16-at-09.38.54.png?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="323" /></p>
<p>Set up confirmations, allowing you time to review before making the booking official. Automatically send out reminders leading up to a booking to reduce no-shows, and set whether bookings can be cancelled.</p>
<h2>Send reminders and reduce no-shows</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-395523" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/bookings-keepintouch@2x.jpg?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="300" /></p>
<p>Remind clients about their appointments with handy notification emails when a reservation is made, confirmed, and a day before the booking date.</p>
<p>If you’d like to do more, you can send a special reminder right from your site.</p>
<h2>Never get double-booked</h2>
<p>Avoid double bookings by assigning the needed resources to a particular booking. For example, if your 2:00 bride books a fitting and a stylist until 3:30, that stylist won’t appear available for the bride scheduling a fitting at 3:00. You’ll never have to worry about offering the same resource to two customers at the same time.</p>
<h2>Manage your calendar <em>your</em> way — including syncing with Google Calendar</h2>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-7370319 size-medium" src="https://woocommerce.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Markup-2021-01-25-at-16.57.34.png?w=620" alt="" width="620" height="267" /></p>
<p>Use the calendar view to see how your day or month is shaping up. Update existing bookings or availability, or filter to view specific services or resources.</p>
<p>Still have customers calling in to make bookings the old-fashioned way? Add them manually from the calendar while you’re on the phone.</p>
<p>Manage bookings on your store, and see it reflected on your Google Calendar in 60 seconds or less.</p>
<h2>Give your bookings a boost</h2>
