Please Note: This Magento 2 extension is developed and maintained by EcomPlugins and is not an official extension created by Trans Direct. It is designed to help Magento 2 merchants integrate Trans Direct freight and courier shipping services and retrieve available shipping rates through the Trans Direct API.

Magento 2 Trans Direct Shipping Extension is a downloadable Magento 2 extension that requires a one-time purchase.

Trans Direct provides freight and courier services across Australia, helping businesses and individuals compare and manage delivery options through its transport network.

The Magento 2 Trans Direct Shipping Extension connects your Magento 2 store with Trans Direct to calculate available shipping rates. Eligible rates can be displayed to customers directly on the shopping cart and checkout pages.

Shipping rates are calculated using shipment information such as the merchant's warehouse/origin address, customer destination address, shopping cart product weight, additional product weight, and applicable delivery requirements.

If your Magento store ships heavy, oversized, commercial, or freight products, explore our complete range of Magento 2 LTL Freight Shipping Extensions for additional carrier and freight integrations.

Trans Direct API Integration for Magento 2

This extension acts as an integration between your Magento 2 store and the Trans Direct API. It does not automatically create a Trans Direct account or provide freight transportation services.

The extension sends the required shipment information from Magento 2 to Trans Direct to request available shipping rates. Returned rate information is then processed according to your Magento Admin configuration and displayed to eligible customers during checkout.

This allows Magento merchants to automate freight and courier rate calculations instead of manually determining shipping charges for qualifying orders.

Real-Time Trans Direct Shipping Rate Calculation

The Magento 2 Trans Direct Shipping Extension uses information from the customer's shopping cart and shipping destination to prepare the rate request.

Depending on your configuration, shipping rate calculations can use information including:

  • Merchant warehouse/origin address
  • Customer destination address
  • Shopping cart shipment weight
  • Additional product-level weight
  • Residential or commercial destination type
  • Liftgate delivery requirements
  • Configured shipping rate markup
  • Minimum shipment weight rules

Applicable Trans Direct shipping rates can then be displayed directly to customers during the Magento 2 cart and checkout process.

Magento 2 Trans Direct Shipping Extension Features

  • Connect Magento 2 with the Trans Direct API for shipping rate requests.
  • Display available Trans Direct shipping rates on the shopping cart and checkout pages.
  • Enable or disable liftgate delivery options.
  • Enable or disable residential delivery options.
  • Support residential and commercial destination types.
  • Configure additional product-level weight for shipping calculations.
  • Set a minimum shipment weight before displaying Trans Direct shipping rates.
  • Add a fixed or percentage-based markup to returned shipping rates.
  • Display a custom error message when Trans Direct is unable to return an applicable shipping rate.
  • Manage Trans Direct shipping settings directly from the Magento 2 Admin Panel.

Residential and Commercial Delivery Options

Shipping costs can vary depending on whether the destination is a residential or commercial location.

The Magento 2 Trans Direct extension allows merchants to account for residential and commercial delivery types when requesting shipping rates.

This helps provide more appropriate shipping quotes based on the customer's destination and delivery requirements.

Liftgate Delivery Option

A liftgate may be required when a freight shipment is delivered to a location without suitable unloading equipment.

The extension allows Magento administrators to enable or disable the liftgate delivery option for applicable Trans Direct shipping rate requests.

This can help merchants include additional freight delivery requirements when retrieving shipping rates.

Product-Level Extra Weight

The Magento 2 Trans Direct extension allows merchants to configure additional weight at the product level.

This is useful when the shipment weight needs to include packaging, protective materials, pallets, or other weight that is not represented by the standard Magento catalog product weight.

The configured additional weight can be included when preparing shipment information for the Trans Direct rate request.

Minimum Shipment Weight

Not every Magento order needs to use a freight shipping method. The extension allows administrators to configure a minimum shipment weight before Trans Direct shipping rates are displayed.

If the shopping cart does not meet the configured minimum weight requirement, the Trans Direct shipping method can be hidden.

This gives merchants more control over when Trans Direct freight or courier shipping options are offered to customers.

Fixed or Percentage Shipping Rate Markup

Magento administrators can add an additional markup to the shipping rate returned by Trans Direct.

The markup can be configured as either a fixed amount or a percentage of the returned shipping rate. This can help account for additional handling, packaging, administrative, or other shipping-related expenses.

How Trans Direct Rate Calculation Works

  1. The customer adds eligible products to the Magento 2 shopping cart.
  2. Magento collects the customer's destination and shopping cart information.
  3. The extension checks the configured Trans Direct shipping rules and minimum shipment weight.
  4. Product weight, additional weight, origin, destination, and applicable delivery options are prepared for the rate request.
  5. The extension sends the shipping rate request to the Trans Direct API.
  6. Trans Direct returns the applicable shipping rate information.
  7. The extension processes the API response and applies any configured shipping markup.
  8. Eligible Trans Direct shipping rates are displayed to the customer during checkout.
  9. The customer selects an available shipping option and continues checkout.

Trans Direct Account & API Configuration

To use this Magento 2 Trans Direct extension, merchants must have an appropriate account with Trans Direct and access to the required API services.

Visit the Trans Direct account enquiries page to review account options and contact Trans Direct regarding API access.

The extension does not automatically create your Trans Direct account. After obtaining the required API credentials, enter them into the Trans Direct shipping configuration section of your Magento 2 Admin Panel.

Once the credentials and shipping settings are configured, the extension can begin requesting applicable Trans Direct shipping rates.

EcomPlugins charges for the Magento 2 extension itself. Transportation charges, account requirements, API policies, and other carrier-related fees are determined separately by Trans Direct.

Who Should Use the Magento 2 Trans Direct Extension?

This extension is designed for Magento 2 merchants shipping within Australia who use Trans Direct and want to automate freight or courier rate calculations during checkout.

It can be particularly useful for Magento stores selling:

  • Industrial and commercial products
  • Automotive equipment and parts
  • Building and construction materials
  • Machinery and equipment
  • Warehouse and business supplies
  • Heavy or oversized products
  • Palletized merchandise
  • Products requiring freight or courier delivery within Australia

Why Integrate Trans Direct with Magento 2?

Manually calculating freight and courier shipping charges can slow down the checkout process and make it difficult to provide customers with an appropriate shipping cost before they place an order.

Integrating Trans Direct with Magento 2 allows shipment information to be sent automatically to the carrier API so applicable rates can be returned and displayed directly during checkout.

Features such as residential and commercial delivery options, liftgate support, product-level extra weight, minimum weight rules, and configurable shipping markup give merchants greater control over how Trans Direct shipping is offered in Magento 2.
