External services

This plugin connects to external services to provide delivery management and address lookup features.

Dropit API

The plugin connects to Dropit to validate merchant credentials, fetch merchant profile data, create and manage delivery orders, retrieve delivery tracking updates, and receive webhook-driven delivery status changes.

When a store admin verifies credentials, the plugin sends the configured Dropit API key and secret to Dropit. When a store admin creates, tracks, or cancels a delivery, the plugin sends order and delivery data such as customer name, phone number, pickup address, drop-off address, city, postcode, coordinates, goods type, vehicle type, and payment type. When webhooks are enabled, Dropit sends delivery status updates back to the site using the configured webhook URL.

Google Maps Platform

The plugin uses Google Maps Platform for address autocomplete in the admin onboarding and pickup setup flows, and for geocoding WooCommerce shipping addresses when delivery coordinates are needed.

When an admin uses address autocomplete, the typed pickup address is sent to Google Maps JavaScript/Places API. When the plugin geocodes a shipping address, it sends the order delivery address to the Google Maps Geocoding API. These requests are only made when the related admin action or delivery workflow requires them.
