External Services

This plugin connects to FedEx Web Services (the FedEx Developer REST API) to fetch live shipping rates. This connection is required for the plugin’s core function — without it, no FedEx rates can be displayed.

  • What is sent, and when: on each cart/checkout rate request — and when you save the settings to validate your credentials and load available services — the plugin sends the shipment origin and destination address details (country, state, city, postal/ZIP code), the package weight and dimensions, and your configured FedEx API credentials to FedEx.

FAQ

Do I need a FedEx account?

Yes. FedEx Shipping connects to your own FedEx account, so you get your own negotiated rates. FedEx accounts are free to open, and you create a free developer app to get your API credentials.

Why aren’t any FedEx rates showing at checkout?

The most common causes are a missing or incomplete origin address, incorrect API credentials, or no FedEx services enabled. Enable debug mode to see exactly why, and test in the FedEx sandbox before switching to production.

Changelog

2.0.2

  • Fixed: Signature Type can now be set to No Signature. The option was missing from the dropdown, so every choice applied a signature and there was no way to turn it off.

2.0.1

  • Added: Customs settings are now visible – duties payer, export documents (Commercial Invoice, Pro Forma Invoice, Certificate of Origin, Export Declaration) and export compliance fields. These apply when shipping labels are created, which requires the PRO version.
  • Fixed: internal correction to how shipping documents are requested from FedEx.

2.0.0

  • Completely rebuilt from the ground up on the modern FedEx REST API.
