Dispatch gives a Shopify store postcode delivery zones with their own days and same-day cut-offs, asks the shopper for their suburb once, pre-selects the next available date, and refuses at checkout any date your drivers can't do.
A branded popup asks for the postcode or suburb (with suburb search for all Australian postcodes). The answer is remembered through the whole visit — the product page, cart and checkout all know where the order is going.
The next available date, pre-selected
On the product page a numbered stepper shows the suburb, the same-day cut-off ("order within 2h 14m"), and the next delivery date already chosen. "Another date" opens a calendar with closed days greyed out. The choice is written to the order as line-item properties and order attributes your packing bench and courier can read.
Zones you can read at a glance
Each zone shows its postcodes, delivery days, today's cut-off, fee and minimum. Paste postcodes or ranges, or search suburbs by name. Publish to the storefront in one click.
Features
Postcode zones — paste postcodes or ranges, or search suburbs; each zone has its own delivery days, per-day cut-off times, lead days, fee and minimum order.
Same-day cut-offs per weekday — 12 pm Monday to Friday and 9 am Saturday is one zone's setting, not a store-wide compromise.
Hard checkout validation — a Shopify Function blocks an order with a missing, malformed or closed delivery date, even if the shopper edits the cart.
Store pick-up with its own schedule and lead time.
Closed dates — public holidays and days off, store-wide or per zone.
Daylight-saving correct cut-offs in the store's timezone.
Your brand — colours, headings and a split-card or classic popup, set in the theme editor.
Compatible attribute names so existing packing-slip and courier workflows keep working.
Who it's for
Florists, cake and bakery shops, hampers, meal and produce boxes, and any local retailer whose delivery days depend on where the customer lives. If you've ever refunded an order because a shopper picked Sunday for a suburb you only reach on Tuesdays, Dispatch is for you.
