How to Add Distance Based Shipping Method in Magento 2
- Distance Based Shipping calculates shipping costs based on the distance between the store and the customer, ensuring fair pricing, better transparency, and reduced cart abandonment.
- Since Magento 2 doesn’t support distance-based shipping by default, you need either custom API-based development (like Google Maps integration) or a dedicated extension for implementation.
- Using a Magento 2 Distance Based Shipping Extension enables real-time calculations, simple configuration, and a seamless checkout experience without complex coding.
