Packie

ਵੇਰਵਾ

Packie connects your WooCommerce store to NZ Post, Aramex, PostHaste, and Castle Parcels in one plugin.

What you get:

  • Live shipping rates at checkout — real courier rates based on cart weight, dimensions, and destination.
  • Real-time order sync — new WooCommerce orders appear in Packie instantly via webhooks.
  • Automatic fulfillment writeback — print labels from Packie, tracking numbers appear back in WooCommerce automatically.
  • One-click install — connect your store in under a minute. No manual API key copy/paste.
  • Fallback rate — if Packie is ever unreachable, an optional flat-rate keeps checkout working.

How it works:

  1. Install and activate the plugin.
  2. Click “Connect to Packie” from WooCommerce Packie.
  3. Log into (or sign up for) your Packie account in the popup.
  4. Add “Packie Live Rates” as a shipping method inside each of your shipping zones.
  5. Done — live rates show at checkout.

Requires a Packie account. The plugin is free to install; a Packie subscription is required for live rates and order sync. Sign up at packie.co.nz.

External services

This plugin connects to the Packie service (https://www.packie.co.nz) to provide live shipping rates, order sync, and fulfillment writeback. It is required for the plugin to function.

What data is sent, and when:

  • At checkout (to fetch live rates): the shopper’s destination address (country, city, postcode), and the cart’s item weights, dimensions, and quantities are sent to https://www.packie.co.nz so Packie can return courier rates. No personal payment data is sent.
  • On new orders (order sync): order details (items, quantities, shipping address, order totals) are sent to Packie via a WooCommerce webhook so the order appears in your Packie dashboard for fulfillment.
  • On connect: your store URL and a WooCommerce REST API key (which you generate) are sent to Packie to authenticate the connection.

Data is transmitted over HTTPS. Packie’s terms of service and privacy policy are available at https://www.packie.co.nz/terms and https://www.packie.co.nz/privacy.

ਅਕਸਰ ਪੁੱਛੇ ਜਾਂਦੇ ਸਵਾਲ

Does the plugin cost anything?

The plugin itself is free. Connecting to Packie requires an active Packie account. Pricing is at packie.co.nz.

Which carriers are supported?

NZ Post, Aramex, PostHaste, and Castle Parcels for domestic New Zealand and Australia. International shipping via NZ Post and Aramex.

What happens if the Packie API is down at checkout?

By default the plugin emits a configurable flat-rate fallback so shoppers can still complete checkout. You can turn this off per shipping zone in the method settings.

Does the plugin support variable products / product variants?

Yes. Weight and dimensions are read per-variant when set, falling back to the parent product otherwise.

How is my WooCommerce API key kept safe?

The plugin uses WooCommerce’s built-in REST API key mechanism. Keys are stored in your database, transmitted over HTTPS, and never exposed to the browser. You can revoke access at any time from WooCommerce Settings Advanced REST API.

ਤਬਦੀਲੀ-ਚਿੱਠਾ

1.0.8

  • Moved admin settings-page CSS out of inline blocks into an enqueued stylesheet (wp_enqueue_style on the Packie admin screen only), per WordPress.org guidelines.

1.0.7

  • Initial public release.
  • Live shipping rates at checkout (NZ Post, Aramex, PostHaste, Castle Parcels).
  • Domestic and international rates with per-courier margins and display names.
  • Flat / table rates and failover rates so checkout never shows zero options.
  • Pack-to-stocks: prices the actual box(es) that will ship.
  • Real-time order sync via webhooks.
  • Automatic fulfillment writeback.
  • One-click connect flow + automatic shipping-zone install.
