Introduction

Qapla’ is the ready-to-go software for brilliant management of shipments, tracking, and post-shipment communications. With the Qapla’ PUDO Plugin, you can offer your customers and prospects the option to receive their orders at pick-up points. This way, you can propose an even more flexible shopping experience, save on shipping costs, and minimize inventory hold-ups. Thanks to the introduction of pick-up points, your e-commerce can compete with the big players in the market.

Installation, Configuration, and Activation

Installation & Configuration

Once you have downloaded the Qapla’ PUDO Plugin from the Store, you need to configure it from the App section in your store.

If you are not yet a Qapla’ customer, you can visit this page  and proceed with registration. You will then be contacted by a Qapla’ team member to finalize the registration, configure, and activate the Qapla’ PUDO plugin. 

If you already have a Qapla’ account, great, you can proceed on your own.

First of all, you need to know the required information:

  • Qapla’ API Public Key
  • Qapla’ API Private Key

You can find both pieces of information within the “Channel” section in the Qapla’ control panel.

Type of PUDO View: You can choose between the map view (Google Maps or Open Street Map) or the listed view. We suggest the map view with Google Maps for desktop and the listed view for mobile.

If you want to use the Google Maps map, you will need to enter its API Key. Here is the documentation.

You can then decide on the default search radius and the maximum number of PUDOs to be displayed in the results.

Finally, you can decide on the type of view for order tracking.

Once the settings are saved, the module on your site will be linked to your Qapla’ account.

Activation

If you are already a Qapla’ customer, after downloading the Qapla’ PUDO Plugin, you can activate it in just a few steps:

  • Simply contact the Success team via email at success@qapla.it, and they will get back to you to proceed with the activation together.

 

Start Using Pick-Up Points

Once the plugin is activated in the Qapla’ control panel, you will have the option, if you wish, to exclude certain carriers (among those already configured) from the pick-up points proposed in your e-commerce.

Simply go to the dedicated section within the Carriers area of your channel.
