VibeFox DPD Pickup for Adobe Commerce

Overview

VibeFox DPD Pickup adds delivery to DPD Pickup points and parcel lockers as a shipping method to Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce. The customer chooses a city and then a pickup point under the shipping methods at the shipping step of checkout, and the point is saved with the order.

It suits stores in Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Slovakia that ship with DPD. Pickup points come from the DPD Baltic web service or the public DPD Slovakia parcelshop search. Shipping prices are fixed prices you enter. The module does not request DPD prices, create shipments, print labels or track parcels.

Key features

Pickup point selector: city first, then the pickup point, with the city of the customer's address pre-selected. The customer cannot continue to payment without a pickup point.

DPD Baltic and DPD Slovakia: one DPD Baltic account lists the pickup points of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. DPD Slovakia needs no credentials and lists the points within 50 km of the customer's city and postcode.

Safe validation: the server checks that the chosen point belongs to the DPD list for the shipping address, and the name saved in the order comes from DPD, not from the browser.

Never stuck at checkout: the method is hidden when DPD returns no pickup point or cannot be reached. Lists are cached for 24 hours, failed requests for 5 minutes. API errors never reach the customer.

Point in the order: added to the shipping description of the order, so it appears on the order confirmation page, in the customer account, in the order e-mails and on invoices. The DPD pickup point block of the admin order has Edit to change it.

Simple prices: a fixed price per country and an optional fallback price, per order or per item, free shipping from a subtotal. Magento cart price rules with free shipping work as usual.

Shipping rules: minimum and maximum cart weight (31.5 kg by default), minimum subtotal and the countries you ship to (Slovakia, Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia after installation).

Standard Magento settings: all settings are on the standard Delivery Methods configuration page, with sections, settings per website, an encrypted API password, a Refresh pickup points button to test the connection and a debug log viewer. Works with the Luma and Blank checkout.

Requirements

Magento Open Source or Adobe Commerce 2.4.6 to 2.4.9 (your own server or Adobe Commerce on cloud infrastructure; not Adobe Commerce as a Cloud Service), PHP 8.1 to 8.4. For Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia: DPD Baltic API username and password, issued by DPD to business customers. DPD Slovakia needs no credentials. A VibeFox license key from vibefox.net (one key per domain).
