Precisely Calculate Shipping Costs Based on Distance Using the Google Maps API
Take full control of your shipping costs with our Magento 2 extension, a powerful tool designed to calculate precise delivery charges based on the exact distance to your customer’s address. By leveraging the robust Google Maps API, this extension dynamically computes shipping rates using the actual transport route rather than the straight-line distance—ensuring accurate, real-world pricing. This is especially beneficial whether you operate locally or offer inhouse shipping, as you can always rely on the most precise cost estimates.
The extension ensures fair and consistent pricing that aligns with the real distance traveled, eliminating guesswork and overcharges. Thanks to its flexible configuration settings, you can create tailored shipping strategies that account for local deliveries, cross-border shipping, or any other logistical requirement. Its built-in localization options allow you to adapt seamlessly to different regions, while the error-handling features ensure smooth, uninterrupted calculations during checkout.
With this extension, your Magento 2 store will be equipped with a streamlined and reliable shipping cost calculator, saving you time, increasing accuracy, and enhancing customer satisfaction.
