Zipcode Filter Selection for Shipping Zones

/in

What’s New?

Store owners can now limit shipping zones by specific ZIP/postcodes, allowing for precise delivery control. This feature enables businesses to facilitate hyper-local deliveries or easily exclude certain areas.

Key Highlights:

  1. Limit Shipping by Zipcode
  • A new checkbox, “Limit Shipping to Specific ZIP/Postcodes,” is available when creating or editing a shipping zone.
  • Once enabled, you can enter ZIPs directly using single codes, comma-separated codes, or wildcard patterns.
  1. Validation & Smart Feedback
  • Real-time validation detects invalid or duplicate ZIPs.
  • Only alphanumeric entries and a trailing asterisk (*) for wildcards are supported.
  • Invalid characters, empty fields, and improper wildcard placement are not allowed.
  1. Checkout Logic
  • During checkout, orders are automatically matched with zones based on the entered ZIP or wildcard patterns.
  1. Enhanced Visibility
  • The Shipping Zones overview now displays all included/excluded ZIPs below each zone for quick reference.
  • Wildcard entries are clearly indicated (e.g., 46*).

How to Use It?

  1. Navigate to Payments → Settings → Shipping & Delivery → General/Custom Profile → Shipping Zones.
  2. Create or edit a zone and enable “Limit Shipping to Specific ZIP/Postcodes”.
  3. Enter ZIPs, multiple entries, or wildcards as required.
  4. Save your changes — your zone is now active only for matching postcodes.

Important Notes:

  • Wildcards (*) can only be used at the end of a valid entry (e.g., 56*).
  • Duplicate or invalid entries are not permitted.
  • If no valid ZIPs are entered after enabling the restriction, the zone cannot be saved.
  • If the entered ZIP doesn’t match any configured zone, shipping for that zone will not apply, but shipping won’t be blocked in that case.
