Distance Based Shipping Calculation

Feel like your shipping pricing does not justify all the orders? We've developed a Distance Based Shipping Calculation for Magento 2 extension that auto-calculates shipping based on the distance between the store and the door.

If you are selling your products to customers from a wide geographical area, the cost of delivering the orders may vary from order to order based on the distance. In such cases, setting up a flat rate shipping for the orders may end you up with non-profitable deals and cart abandonment rates. Meetanshi's Distance Based Shipping for Magento 2 extension solves this problem by auto-calculating the shipping based on the delivery location.

The module uses the Google Geocode API to retrieve the distance and calculate the estimated shipping cost. Just define the distance-based shipping rules in the backend, and the shipping cost for the orders will be auto-calculated on the checkout!

Offer fair shipping rates without cutting down the profits in your Magento 2 store using Distance Based Shipping Calculation for Magento 2 extension.
