Stop losing sales to imprecise delivery zones. Distance Master uses real driving distances \u2014 not straight-line guesses \u2014 so you deliver exactly where you can, every time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Whether you run a restaurant, local shop, or regional delivery service, Distance Master gives you complete control over who gets delivery, how much they pay, and when you deliver<\/strong> \u2014 all from a single settings panel inside WooCommerce.<\/p>\n\n Most WooCommerce shipping plugins use postcodes or straight-line radius, which fail in the real world. A postcode 3 km away might take 20 minutes to drive, while one 8 km away takes 12. Distance Master uses real driving routes via OSRM + OpenStreetMap<\/strong> \u2014 the same open-source technology powering routing apps \u2014 completely free with no API key, no account, no subscription required<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n Distance-Based Shipping Tiers<\/strong>\nDefine unlimited distance bands (e.g. 0-5 km, 5-10 km, 10-20 km) with custom shipping fees for each. Customers outside your delivery range are automatically blocked at checkout.<\/p>\n\n 7-Day Delivery Schedule<\/strong>\nSet open\/closed hours for each day of the week. Customers see live delivery availability so they only order when you can actually fulfil.<\/p>\n\n Blackout Dates<\/strong>\nBlock public holidays, staff leaves, or any date you need \u2014 delivery is automatically disabled on those days without any manual intervention.<\/p>\n\n Emergency Toggle<\/strong>\nPause all deliveries instantly with one click. Re-enable just as fast. Perfect for unexpected closures or kitchen emergencies.<\/p>\n\n Postcode Overrides<\/strong>\nManually allowlist or blocklist specific postcodes regardless of distance. Handle problem areas or VIP zones with precision.<\/p>\n\n Strict Delivery Products<\/strong>\nMark individual products as \"Strict Delivery\" \u2014 they can only be purchased with a valid delivery method. Great for perishables, same-day items, or temperature-sensitive goods.<\/p>\n\n Smart Postcode Caching<\/strong>\nDistance results are cached per postcode for 30 days, so repeat customers get instant responses with zero additional external API calls.<\/p>\n\n 100% Free APIs \u2014 No Keys, No Subscriptions<\/strong>\nPowered by OpenStreetMap's Nominatim (geocoding) and Project OSRM (routing). No accounts to create, no costs to manage.<\/p>\n\n Customers simply enter their postcode at checkout. Distance Master geocodes it via Nominatim, calculates the real driving distance via OSRM, and applies your rules \u2014 all in real time.<\/p>\n\n Only the customer's postcode is sent to Nominatim to resolve coordinates. No names, emails, or addresses are ever transmitted to any external service. Results are cached locally for 30 days to minimise outbound requests.<\/p>\n\n This plugin connects to two free, open-source services to calculate delivery eligibility.<\/p>\n\n 1. Nominatim (OpenStreetMap)<\/strong>\nConverts a customer's postcode into geographic coordinates (latitude\/longitude).\nData sent: postcode string only. No PII is transmitted.\n- Usage Policy: https:\/\/operations.osmfoundation.org\/policies\/nominatim\/\n- Privacy Policy: https:\/\/osmfoundation.org\/wiki\/Privacy_Policy\n- Terms of Use: https:\/\/osmfoundation.org\/wiki\/Terms_of_Use<\/p>\n\n 2. OSRM (router.project-osrm.org)<\/strong>\nCalculates the real driving distance between your shop and the customer's coordinates.\nData sent: your shop's coordinates (set by you in settings) and the customer's resolved coordinates.\n- Project Page: https:\/\/project-osrm.org\/\n- Source and Terms: https:\/\/github.com\/Project-OSRM\/osrm-backend<\/p>\n\n No personally identifiable information is ever sent to either service.<\/p>\n\n For support and documentation, visit https:\/\/rabbitmarketinghouse.in<\/p>\n\n\n No. Distance Master uses OpenStreetMap Nominatim and Project OSRM \u2014 both completely free and open-source. No registration, no API key, no subscription.<\/p><\/dd>\n Driving distance is calculated using the OSRM routing engine with OpenStreetMap road data. This gives real road-network distances, not straight-line (\"as the crow flies\") estimates.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. You can define unlimited distance tiers, each with its own label and shipping cost. For example: 0-5 km = free, 5-10 km = \u00a32.99, 10+ km = blocked.<\/p><\/dd>\n They cannot select a delivery method at checkout. You can customise the message they see so they understand why delivery is unavailable in their area.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The Blackout Dates feature lets you block any specific dates from a calendar picker. Delivery is automatically disabled on those days.<\/p><\/dd>\n No. Distance results are cached per postcode for 30 days. Most returning customers experience zero additional load time. Only the first lookup per postcode makes an external request.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Only postcode data is transmitted to external services \u2014 never any personally identifiable information. Results are cached locally, not on third-party servers.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. Enable \"Strict Delivery\" on any product and it becomes unavailable to customers outside your delivery range.<\/p><\/dd>\n Classic checkout is fully supported. Block-based checkout compatibility is under active development.<\/p><\/dd>\n Requires WooCommerce 5.0 or later. Tested up to WooCommerce 8.x.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nWhy Distance Master?<\/h4>\n\n
