RuleHook: Advanced Shipping Rules for WooCommerce

Description

RuleHook Connector seamlessly integrates WooCommerce with RuleHook, a SaaS platform that gives you precise control over shipping logic.

Out of the box, WooCommerce shipping rules are limited. With RuleHook, you can define unlimited conditions and actions to tailor shipping methods to your exact business needs.

Examples of what you can do:
– Offer Free Shipping for orders over $100 except bulky items.
– Apply different rates based on weight brackets, volume, or dimensions.
– Restrict certain methods for specific countries, states, or zip codes.
– Add handling fees or surcharges dynamically.
– Show or hide methods depending on user role, product category, or cart contents.

If WooCommerce shipping zones frustrate you, RuleHook Connector unlocks the flexibility you need — without hacks or bloated plugins.

Features

– Full integration with RuleHook SaaS.
– Unlimited shipping rules with AND/OR logic.
– Supports weight, subtotal, dimensions, quantity, product tags, categories, attributes, user roles, locations, and more.
– Fine-grained control: show, hide, rename, or adjust shipping methods dynamically.
– Fast evaluation engine built for scale.
– Works with existing WooCommerce shipping zones.

Integration & Source Code

This plugin connects your WooCommerce store to the RuleHook platform (https://rulehook.com), a service that provides dynamic shipping rate logic based on custom conditions and rules.

When connected, the plugin communicates with the RuleHook API to:
– Authenticate your WooCommerce store.
– Sync shipping zones, shipping methods, and order/cart data when evaluating rules.
– Retrieve calculated shipping rates that match your configured rules on the RuleHook dashboard.

Data Sent

The plugin may send the following data to the RuleHook API during operation:
– Store URL and store name (for identification)
– Shipping zones, methods, and related settings
– Destination country, state, postcode, and cart details (for rate calculation)
– API credentials generated during the “Authorize This Site” process

No customer personal data (such as names, email addresses, or phone numbers) is transmitted.

Purpose

This data exchange is required for the plugin to calculate and display dynamic shipping rates in WooCommerce based on your rules defined in RuleHook.
