Shipping Cost on Product Page is a plugin for your WooCommerce shop allowing your customers to calculate and see the shipping price of the product they are currently viewing and/or their current cart content directly on the product pages even before reaching the cart or checkout. Once the customer enters the shipping destination details in a dedicated form on the product page, the shipping cost is calculated the same way it is done in WooCommerce cart and checkout by default. Provide your customers with the shipping price info much faster, avoid surprises and reduce the amount of the abandoned carts in your store with Shipping Cost on Product Page plugin!
