Estimated Delivery Dates

An estimated delivery date shows customers when their order is expected to arrive based on shipping method, destination, carrier transit time, and fulfillment rules. Showing an estimated delivery date helps set clear expectations, reduce cart abandonment, and improve the ecommerce checkout experience.

The "Estimated shipping date" feature is available for Shopify, Magento, Adobe Commerce and WooCommerce.

Estimated Delivery Dates can be set up for all types of shipping methods you set with the Calcurates app: Carrier services, Table Rates methods, Flat Rate, Free Shipping and in-Store Pickup.

Use dynamic delivery date display for real-time clarity at checkout.
With Calcurates, you can show accurate estimated delivery dates for each shipping method directly in the cart and at checkout. Whether it's a specific date (e.g., “Arrives by Nov 28”) or a range (e.g., “2–4 business days”), you can configure the format that best suits your store and customer expectations.

Bonus: You can also include delivery cut-off times to make same-day or next-day delivery more transparent.

Yes — customize your delivery schedule to exclude non-working days.
You can define non-delivery days such as weekends, national holidays, or custom blackout dates. This ensures that estimated delivery dates are calculated based on your actual shipping calendar, preventing misleading promises during checkout.

Example: Exclude Sundays and public holidays from estimated ranges to avoid failed expectations.

Yes — use conditional logic based on cart contents, zones, or product types.
Calcurates allows you to display dynamic delivery dates based on multiple conditions. You can set delivery timelines for specific products, product tags, shipping zones, or cart rules. This is perfect for stores selling both ready-to-ship and made-to-order items.

Use case: Show “3–5 business days” for regular items and “10–14 business days” for custom-made products in the same store.

Calcurates shows estimated delivery dates at checkout together with shipping methods and rates. This helps customers understand when an order is likely to arrive before they complete the purchase.
