The human tendency to avoid the shipping cost as much as possible is not unknown to us! The E-commerce store owners often face customer rejection because of the high shipping cost. Also, merchants are finding it difficult to calculate the shipping cost that does not affect the profit margin as well as customers' decision to purchase. Meetanshi has developed Magento 2 Distance Based Shipping extension to solve this problem.
The Magento 2 distance based shipping calculation extension allows you to create a custom shipping method to calculate shipping charges based on the distance between the warehouse and the customer's delivery location.
The default Magento 2 offers shipping methods like flat rate shipping but it does not suit every business. Moreover, it is unfair that a customer living in the area within 1 km and the customer living 10 km away from the warehouse, both have to pay the same value for the shipping service.
The Magento 2 Distance Rate Shipping eliminates this biased shipping process. Instead, it uses the official Google's Geocode API that offers the geocoding and the reverse geocoding of addresses.
Outstanding facility!!!
Using this extension, I can now take shipping charge as per the delivery location distance. This is great!
