Description
Bagisto ShipRocket Shipping connects your Bagisto store with ShipRocket to display live courier rates at checkout and manage shipment bookings. It helps store owners offer delivery options based on the customer's location.
This module fetches available courier services for the delivery pincode and displays their shipping charges and estimated delivery dates. Customers can compare the available options before placing an order.
When the admin saves a shipment in Bagisto, the module creates the order in ShipRocket. It then books the AWB against the courier selected by the customer and saves the AWB as the shipment tracking number.
Admin can manage ShipRocket settings from the Bagisto configuration panel. They can add API credentials, select a pickup location, and set default package weight and dimensions for shipping calculations.
This module supports Cash on Delivery and prepaid shipping quotes. Admin can also restrict the shipping method to selected countries and configure the message shown when the method is unavailable.
Store owners can download ShipRocket shipping labels from the Bagisto admin panel. This module also supports channel-based shipping configuration and shipment search using the AWB number.
Additionally, if you want customers to choose a delivery date and time at checkout, then check Laravel eCommerce Delivery Time Slot.

Why Do We Need Bagisto ShipRocket Shipping?
Bagisto ShipRocket Shipping helps store owners connect their Bagisto store with ShipRocket for better shipping management. It displays courier rates and estimated delivery dates at checkout.
Bagisto's default shipping options may not provide live courier rates based on the customer's delivery location. This can make it difficult to offer flexible shipping choices.
Store admin may also need to enter order details into ShipRocket manually. Managing courier bookings and tracking numbers separately can increase work and lead to errors.
With Bagisto ShipRocket Shipping, admin can create ShipRocket shipments, book AWBs, and download shipping labels from the Bagisto admin panel.
Also, if you want customers to receive order updates on WhatsApp, you can check our extension Bagisto WhatsApp Chatbot & Order Notification.
Use Cases
-
Indian D2C Store Shipping
Bagisto store shipping across India lets ShipRocket quote every serviceable courier instead of one flat rate.
-
Cash On Delivery Orders
Rate Payment Mode set to Cash On Delivery lists only couriers that collect COD at the delivery address.
-
Courier Rate Comparison
Shoppers weigh a cheaper surface courier against a faster air courier, because both rates and dates appear.
-
Shipping an Order in Parts
Each shipment reaches ShipRocket on its own, so a split order gets one booking per shipment.
-
Light Catalog Products
Stores selling small items set a default package weight, because ShipRocket will not quote a weightless package.
-
Warehouse Pickup Selection
A store with more than one registered pickup location picks the warehouse a courier collects from.
Default Package Weight and Dimensions
ShipRocket needs a weight and a box size before it quotes a rate. Package defaults cover carts that fall short.
- Set Default Package Weight (kg) as the fallback cart weight.
- Bagisto applies the fallback when a cart weighs less than this value.
