Sure As Ship for WooCommerce

Sure As Ship for WooCommerce connects your store to Sure As Ship, a Canadian shipping platform. Your customers see live commercial rates from Canada Post, FedEx, UPS and Purolator at checkout, and you book labels without leaving WooCommerce.

Features

• Live rates at checkout from the carriers you choose, in both the classic and block checkout
• Pass your discounted rate on to customers, or show retail and keep the difference
• Markup percentage and flat handling fee
• Book the service the customer picked with one click, or automatically in the background when an order reaches Processing or Completed
• Book orders placed with any other shipping method from the order screen
• Download labels; Canada Post QR codes for printing at a post office
• Return labels and Canada Post return QR codes
• Tracking number added to the order, the customer’s order page and their emails
• Several ship-from locations, chosen per order
• Optional box packing into the box sizes you use
• Customs information for cross-border shipments, with per-product HS codes
• Signature, Saturday delivery and hold-for-pickup options, and scheduled carrier pickups

What you need

• A Sure As Ship account and an API key from it
• A ship-from address in Canada, or in the US for US-registered accounts
• Shipments are billed by Sure As Ship to your account. The plugin itself is free. A test API key books sandbox labels that are never charged, so you can try everything first.

External services

This plugin needs the Sure As Ship API (https://sureasship.com/api/ecommerce/v1), operated by Sure As Ship, to work. Nothing is sent until you save an API key, and nothing is sent that is not needed for the action below.

• At checkout and on the cart page, to show rates: the ship-from postal code, province and country; the destination postal code, city, province, country and company name; the weight and dimensions of each item in the cart; and your rate settings (carriers, packing method and boxes, delivery options). For a destination outside the ship-from country, each cart item’s name, price, quantity, weight, HS code and country of manufacture is also sent, so prepaid US duties can be estimated. No customer name, street address, email or phone number is sent to get rates.
• When a shipment is booked (by you, or automatically if you turn that on): the ship-from address, phone and store admin email; the customer’s name, company, shipping address, phone and email, which the carrier needs for the label; item weights and dimensions; your order ID as a reference; and, for cross-border shipments, each item’s name, value, quantity, weight, HS code and country of manufacture.
• When you test the connection, save settings, or open an order: your API key, to read your account’s name, billing status and allowed ship-from countries, and the order’s labels and customs documents.
• When you create a return, void a shipment or download a label: the Sure As Ship shipment or return ID.

Sure As Ship passes shipment details to the carrier you choose (Canada Post, FedEx, UPS or Purolator) so it can carry the parcel.

Tracking links in the order screen and customer emails point to the carrier’s own tracking page (canadapost-postescanada.ca, fedex.com, ups.com or purolator.com); they are only visited when someone clicks them.
