Handling Fees and Discounts

If either you need to add a handling fees for your shipping order, or if you want to reduce the shipping costs for your customers. We set an option for that where you can add an amount value to reduce or increase the shipping cost. The value can be either a number or a percentage, positive for handling fees and negative for discounts.

Extra Cover

Here is another feature to give you or your customers a peace of mind. You can enable the Extra Cover option in case your item’s lost or damaged in transition, you should be qualified for compensation.

Signature on Delivery

You want to make sure that your package was delivered to the right person? No problem. Just enable the Signature on Delivery option.

Separate Extra Services

Awesome. Another customizing option. Sometimes you want your customers to have the option whether they want Extra Cover or Signature on Delivery with their order. You only need to enable this option. But keep in mind to also enable Extra Cover or Signature on Delivery.

Cut to the Chase and provide the cheapest option to your customers without putting them in the hustle of choosing from many options.

Full Of Bugs. When I downloaded this plugin on to my site it caused everything to crash. Automatically deleted.

Top notch plugin, covers all of MyPost Business perfectly. Contacted WPruby and asked for Tracked Letters to be added and next-day Waseem reached out and said “done”, here is the new plugin. 10/10.

Plugin is alright, but standard version is missing basic fundamental features rendering it fairly pointless – not able to include handling fee and not covering enough shipping options (satchels and letters). I realise you’re forced to fork out for these basic features.
