Description
Amadast Shipping connects your WooCommerce store to Amadast services to calculate live shipping rates, manage carriers, and offer checkout shipping options based on weight, destination, and package details.
External services
This plugin connects to third-party and Amadast-hosted services. Data is sent only when the related feature is used (for example, during checkout, admin settings tests, OTP login, or when the map feature is enabled).
Amadast Shipping Calculator API
This service is used to calculate live shipping prices for supported carriers during cart and checkout.
Data sent when rates are requested:
– Origin and destination city
– Package weight, value, and type
– Selected couriers
– Plugin version
– Site URL, site name, site description, and admin email (for account/support context)

If the API does not respond, the plugin may use configured fallback pricing.
