ShipBG for WooCommerce vs Speedy And Econt Shipping

ShipBG connects your WooCommerce store to the Bulgarian courier accounts you already use. You connect your own carrier accounts, and the plugin brings live delivery prices, pickup-point selection, waybill creation, label printing and tracking into WooCommerce. Supported carriers: Speedy Econt Pigeon BoxNow Sameday PostOne Direx Main features: Live rates in checkout — show delivery prices from your connected carriers for address, office or locker delivery. Pickup-point map and search — customers choose offices and lockers directly in checkout, with typo-tolerant search. No extra checkout clutter — ShipBG works with the normal WooCommerce address flow and suggests nearby pickup points when possible. Waybills from the order screen — create shipments without copying order data into carrier portals. PDF and ZPL labels — print one label or generate labels in bulk for many orders. COD support — send cash-on-delivery details to supported carriers while payouts stay under your own carrier contract. Tracking updates — sync shipment statuses back to WooCommerce and show customers a tracking timeline. Returns and cancellation — start returns or cancel shipments from WooCommerce where the carrier supports it. Flexible delivery pricing — set free-shipping thresholds, fixed prices or merchant subsidies by carrier, delivery type, order value or weight. Checkout resilience — optional merchant-configured fallback rates can keep checkout available during temporary API or carrier outages. Classic and Blocks checkout — supports both WooCommerce checkout experiences. HPOS compatible — uses WooCommerce order APIs, not direct postmeta writes.
