The flat rate by zip code zone allows you to
specify different shipping rates based on the method of
shipping AND the ZIP code the item is being shipped to.
The rate can be a flat (fixed) dollar amount or a
percentage of the subtotal of products in the basket.
The module evaluates the "ship to" ZIP code and
displays its methods and rates applicable to the
destination. This prevents customers from selecting its lower
rates which may not be available for them. Great for local shipping charges. Not compatible with the current google checkout module as that module does not use the customer's address to select the shipping methods available.
The module currently fully supports the mivasql configuration of MIVA Merchant 5. It also supports MySQL as long as load balancing has the data stored on the single MySQL server and
permissions are set correctly on the data
directories. This would be the case in most of the server setups. If you are using Merchant 5.x and your host is web.com, you will not be able to use this module due to the way they configure their servers. There are no known issues with
other hosts.
