Speedy And Econt Shipping

v1.15.2 · by Dan

Speedy and Econt office and address delivery at the WooCommerce checkout. Maintained successor: BG Couriers for WooCommerce.

About this plugin

This plugin is no longer being developed. It keeps working and nothing is removed – your settings, offices and shipping options stay exactly as they are. But new couriers, the block checkout, waybills and tracking are being built in its successor instead:

BG Couriers for WooCommerce – free as well, by the same author, and it carries on where this plugin stops:

  • Speedy, Econt, BOX NOW, Sameday, Pigeon Express, Express One and Evropat in one plugin
  • office, address and locker/APS delivery, with live prices from each courier’s own API
  • one map with every courier’s offices and lockers on it, each with its price
  • waybills and labels in one click – one order, or fifty onto a single A4 sheet
  • parcel tracking on the order and in the e-mails the shop already sends
  • works with the WooCommerce block checkout, which this plugin cannot – it draws its fields on a hook the block checkout does not have

Nothing has to be done today. If this plugin does what your shop needs, keep it. If you are setting a shop up, or you have moved to the block checkout, start with the successor.

This plugin adds the checkout functionality to chose from offices of Speedy and Econt couriers in Bulgaria.
The functionality might get extended to other countries by simply adding parameters to respective API calls.
