Thanks")* Hi, Well, let's first talk about the current situation of the HikaShop checkout and shipping. HikaShop already comes with several shipping plugins which connect to a shipping company through an API providing the address of the user, the number and size of packages, etc and get back the shipping fee. You can find these in the folder plugins/hikashopshipping/ of your website. I would recommend looking at the ups2 one, which is the latest we developed, and the cleanest, but it's only there if you have HikaShop 5.0.0 installed. You can also have a one page checkout with HikaShop (the checkout is actually configured as a one page checkout by default). However, if you have a shipping method for a plugin which requires the address of the user to calculate the shipping fee, like these plugins, the customer will have to first validate the guest shipping address so that the shipping fees can be updated before finishing the checkout. Finally, note that our marketplace also has a shipping estimation plugin available here: [ www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/244...tion-by-obsidev.html](https://www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/244-shippingestimation-by-obsidev.html) With it, you can allow customers to directly pre caclulate their shipping fee for a particular product even before they have it in the cart, or provided their full address. The plugin will just ask the customer for the necessary information (like the post code and the country) to be able to retrieve the information.

I have the API response, and saved the shipping price in a variable $shippingPrice How can I display this price next to the shipping method name and add this value as shipping price before the customer pays. Looks like it's a one last step, but can't figure it out.

Thanks")* Hi, In the parameters of the onShippingDisplay method, you have the parameters $methods and $usable_methods Code: onShippingDisplay(&$order,&$methods,&$usable_methods,&$messages) In $methods you have all the shipping methods prefiltered by HikaShop. In $usable_methods you have an empty array. So what you need to do is to make a copy of your shipping method data from $methods, overwrite the shipping_price with the fee retrieved from your shipping company and then add that copy in $usable_methods so that HikaShop can use it as an available shipping method on the checkout.
