Magento 2 Shipping Calculator Extension

Overview

The Magento 2 Shipping Calculator Extension allows customers to view shipping rates directly on the product page, enhancing their shopping experience by providing upfront shipping cost estimates before checkout. This extension helps reduce cart abandonment rates by offering transparency about shipping fees and empowers customers to make informed purchasing decisions.

By enabling the shipping calculator on the product details page, customers no longer need to navigate through the checkout process to view shipping rates. They can calculate shipping costs instantly by entering their country, state, and zip code, ensuring a seamless and efficient shopping experience.

Customers can calculate shipping costs directly on the product page before checkout, providing transparency and building trust. By offering upfront shipping information, the extension helps reduce cart abandonment rates and encourages customers to complete their purchases. Admins can customize the title and description of the shipping calculator to suit store preferences. A custom message is displayed when no shipping methods are available.

Admins can also set default values for the country, state, and zip code fields to simplify the process for customers. The extension can be configured to show the shipping calculator for specific customer groups, and admins can choose whether to display shipping prices with or without tax. The shipping calculator is fully responsive, ensuring a seamless experience across all devices and screen sizes.

Problem: By default, Magento 2 does not provide an option to show a shipping calculator on the product page. This means that when a customer adds a product to their cart and proceeds to checkout, they will not be able to see the shipping rates/cost until they reach the checkout page. This can potentially discourage customers from completing their purchases if they find the shipping rates to be too high. Without upfront information on shipping fees, customers may hesitate to proceed with their purchase, impacting conversion rates negatively.

Solutions: The Magento 2 Shipping Calculator on the product details page extension addresses these challenges by integrating a shipping calculator directly into the product page. The extension offers a user-friendly interface allowing customers to select country, state, and zip code and the extension will automatically calculate the shipping rates. Providing clear shipping cost estimates on the product details makes it more convenient and efficient for shoppers to make informed purchasing decisions.
