Parcelify: Shipping Rates

I have to say this is quite impressive if you have a logical mind.

He has taken something very difficult and reduced it to a set of reasonable easy to understand rules.

Very useful.

TBH we will probably outgrow this but as an out of the box solution it is a brilliant solution to Shopify's sometimes bewildering lack of inbuilt functionality.

Very simple to use, author responded very quickly with 2 queries. We sell heavy items, so weight and location are important factors when calculating our delivery costs. We use a regex string of postcodes to determine a buyers location - takes time to write up but once it's done, it's done!

Wonderful app! We are migrating our wholesale company to Shopify and I needed a way to to be able to charge a shipping surcharge for a few large, oversized items. I was about to lose hope when someone mentioned this in one of the online forums. This app allows you to do this and it works perfectly! Also, Christian is very responsive and answered my questions within minutes of emailing him. Considering that this app is free, I was like "WHAAA!??"

As others have mentioned, you do need to have Real Time Carrier Rates enabled, which is part of Shopify's $299/month plan; however, I was able to call support and they informed me that as long as I paid for a year in advance of any plan (even the lowest plan offered) they would enable it for me without paying for the advanced plan.

I honestly can't understand why this app is free. Like other commenters here, we tried out other paid apps and nothing was able to do what we wanted to do. Until we found this app.

Using DPD for deliveries in the UK, we need to be able to charge different postage based on postcode. This app made it easy to do (once we had figured out the correct regular expression for the postcodes)

We've used Prestashop and Magento before and calculating postage based on postcode has always been a nightmare. Thanks to Parcelify we can now sleep easy.

Does a great job for what we want it for which was offering free shipping within a specific UK set of post codes. Christian was quick to respond to our questions and we got the store running straight away.

As you might see in other reviews, if you want to use this with the Basic shopify package just pay for Shopify annually (just go to Admin -> Account -> Change Billing Period -> Annual) and then ask for the Real-Time Shipping API to be enabled by support.

Hey. This is a great app and does exactly what I want.
If you have the basic plan installed, you can get round the carrier API requirement by upgrading to annual billing and having it added, so there's no need to be on an advanced plan.
:)

Once you get over the steep learning curve, it is actually a very powerful shipping tool, for an app that is free.

It has certainly made creating shipping pricing in Australia much better.

Parcelify is an amazing app. I cannot recommend it highly enough. Sorted out all my shipping requirements regardless how complex they were. The whole team, Richard, Alex and Nick are all extremely helpful and quick to answer any questions. 5 Stars....

Excellent app, easy to use and great customer support. Highly recommended :-)

For the money, this application is the best bang for your buck. It is a wee bit complicated to use but the kind lads working there spend much time, over email, explaining and teaching me how it all worked. Would recommend.
