Price per license: 1 domain, updates and support for 12 months.
Overview
VibeFox The Courier Guy adds The Courier Guy (South Africa) delivery to PrestaShop. It works with the ShipLogic platform that The Courier Guy runs on and creates two carriers: courier delivery to the door and delivery to a TCG locker the customer chooses at the shipping step. The price is a live ShipLogic rate or comes from your own price table.
It suits South African shops with a The Courier Guy business account. The module calculates rates and lets customers pick a locker. It does not book shipments, create waybills or labels, or update tracking automatically. Book the parcel in your The Courier Guy portal and enter the reference as the tracking number of the order.
Key features
Two carriers: "The Courier Guy" (courier to the door) and "The Courier Guy locker", each with its own name and on/off switch. Zones and customer groups are managed in Shipping > Carriers.
Live courier rates: the cheapest ShipLogic service from your sender address to the customer's address, once the address is complete.
Locker selection: on the Classic and the Hummingbird theme, customers see the lockers near their city, can search another city, suburb or postal code, and must choose one. The choice is checked on the server.
Locker and tracking on the order: the locker appears on the admin order page, the customer's order pages and the order e-mails. The tracking number of the order is the The Courier Guy reference.
Currency and tax: ShipLogic quotes in rand. Other shop currencies use your ZAR conversion rate. With a tax rule, the rate without VAT is used, so VAT is not charged twice.
Price table: prices by country and weight tier, per order or per item, plus a fallback cost, for addresses outside South Africa and whenever there is no live rate.
Resilient checkout: rates are cached for 1 hour, lockers for 6 hours, failures for 10 minutes. If ShipLogic is down, the price table is used and a locker order can still be placed.
South African provinces in one click: PrestaShop has none. The module can add the 9 provinces that the live courier rate needs.
Requirements
PrestaShop 8.0 to 9.x, PHP 8.0 or later. A ShipLogic API key from your The Courier Guy courier portal for live rates and lockers. The price table works without it. A VibeFox license key from vibefox.net (one key per domain).
