To be able to have the live shipping costs during checkout from USPS, UPS, FedEx, etc, and to be able to add in heavy freight shipping (LTL) options. I tried to set this up through Zapier and ShipStation but have not figured out a way to make it happen. I currently have an ecommerce site almost complete in Webflow and realized I don't have a way to add this option. Unless anyone has a solution.
This just bricked us on a site launch 🫠
We have a client with multiple sites we're migrating into Webflow, one of which is an ecommerce store. Though we initially wanted to use Shopify for their ecom site, we agreed to use Webflow on all the sites for max consistency. We mistakenly assumed auto-calculating shipping at checkout was a feature on Webflow. Although it's a very simple store with only one shipping option (UPS Ground), his packaging is slightly too large to use UPS Simple Rate. Shipping locally vs. to other states creates up to a $100 variance in the cost of shipping, and there's no way for me to accommodate this using Webflow. The Squarespace site we're migrating away from calculates the shipping easily. I'm not even sure what to do as a workaround, aside from convince our client to either overcharge for shipping or accept a lower margin on sales.

THIS WAS TWO YEARS AGO IT SEEMS PRETTY BASIC
Man shipstation literally made its own webflow integration because you guys took forever.

I'd also love to hear a timeline on this. This seems essential for an eCommerce site to handle.

My research brought me here. Also running into a road block where a small volume client needs a more accurate way of calculating shipping. Any updates on when live shipping options will become available in the cart?

Has this been evolved on at all? Absolute disappointment from my end as this is a huge headache not being able to give people exact pricing on shipping and having to do 100% guess work around this.
@Webflow please do something, this topic has been ignored since the beginning of 2022 and is a huge misdirection for your e-commerce platform. Lack of live shipping rates will kill this platform and is the reason most customers move away to Shopify or other commerce applications.
Third party software DOES NOT PROVIDE THIS FEATURE. Shippo, shipstation, Foxy, none of them provide this. On my eyes this platform is null and void until this feature is added and I am heavily considering transferring my site to a differrent provider PURELY OUT OF FRUSTRATION.
For such a massive company the lack of transparency and any news or updates regarding this topic is a massive let down and really makes me not want to reccomend this platform to anybody - especially clients.
Please do something about this soon.

This is a game breaker for my client. I worked hard to convince them to switch to Webflow and I'm now at a standstill. When can we expect this ?

shippo does not work in Canada, when can I integrate Canada Post? Had I known how difficult this basic thing is...

Whats the status of this?

Live shipping rates is pretty much a given on any respectable eCommerce site. The Webflow advertising is deceiving around this topic. The marketing seems to indicate live shipping rates upon checkout is already a feature and, currently, it is not.

Thisss!!!! ^^^^^^^^^
Canada Post shipping rates in Canada are impossible even through Shippo integration.

Now that shippo is integrated softly, what might be the timeline on this?
