New API Support: USPS Advanced supports the API changes that come into effect on May 14, including dimensional weights, First-class mail types and the new international shipping methods.
Continuing our tradition of developing the most highly configurable shipping modules for Miva Merchant, we are proud to announce the release of USPS Advanced. This module contains the same kind of options available in our FedEx Advanced and UPS Custom Integration. It offers USPS rate calculations for both domestic and international addresses.
- Origination zip codes are configurable for individual products, categories and groups, making this module perfect for drop-shippers
- Insurance can be offered for each shipping method, either as optional or required
- The packaging weight and number of products per package can be specified
- Handling charges, as a dollar amount or percentage, can be added per order, per item or per package and are also configurable at the product and category level.
- Each or any method can be flagged for free shipping or can be controlled to do so if certain order thresholds are met
Besides the above global options, at the product, category and group level, you can also use the following features:
- Ship in separate package
- Configure the number of items to fit in a box, splitting according to weight or cost, if desired
- Offer free or discounted shipping
- Charge additional handling
- Add a packaging weight
- Force certain items to ship together
...and more.
