Description
Integrate your WooCommerce store with the Cardinal Last Mile logistics platform to offer your customers accurate, real-time shipping rates. This plugin acts as a bridge between your store and the Cardinal API, allowing you to quote with multiple logistics providers without complex configurations. When a customer reaches the checkout, the plugin sends the cart’s weight and destination to your Cardinal backend, which calculates the available rates and returns them for the customer to choose their preferred option.
Key Features:
- Real-Time Quoting: Displays accurate shipping rates based on package destination and weight.
- Multiple Token Support: Configure several seller tokens to quote simultaneously with different accounts or setups.
- Additional Cost: Add a fixed cost or surcharge to each shipping rate directly from the settings.
- Order Type Filtering: Allows pre-filtering quotes for “Normal” or “Flex” services.
- Automatic Notification: When an order is created, the plugin automatically notifies the Cardinal API to register the shipment.
- Customer Tracking: Once the API returns a tracking number, it is saved to the order and displayed to the customer in their account and notification emails.
