About RentADriver Delivery
From the official readme · v0.5.9Description
From checkout to doorstep. Live checkout rates, automatic booking and delivery tracking for your WooCommerce store.
Connect your store to RentADriver once, and customers inside your delivery radius see a live “Same-day by RentADriver” rate at checkout. Orders paid with that rate are booked with a local driver the moment WooCommerce marks them processing. The order gets an order note with a tracking link when the driver collects it, and is completed on delivery.
Everything day-to-day lives under WordPress → RentADriver: an overview of your account, mode, wallet balance and coverage, the orders RentADriver has booked with their tracking, and your delivery settings. Account sign-in, wallet top-ups and manual booking open the RentADriver app in a new tab. The plugin uses native WordPress screens and does not embed a remote dashboard.
- Live rate at checkout, priced per order and destination — not a flat table
- Your delivery radius, cut-off time, prep time and maximum item size
- Choose what the shopper pays: pass the quote through, add or subtract a percentage, charge a flat amount, or make it free over a basket size
- Optional cheaper “tomorrow morning” rate alongside same-day
- Automatic booking on paid orders, or book by hand from the RentADriver app
- Proof of delivery: photo, recipient name, signature or OTP
- Pickup address, contact and driver instructions per store
A RentADriver account is required. Pricing and coverage are at https://rentadriver.ai.
External services
This plugin connects to the RentADriver API (https://api.rentadriver.ai), operated by efirity. It is required: without it the plugin cannot quote a delivery or book a driver, and no rate is shown at checkout.
When a shopper reaches checkout and your store is connected, the plugin sends the delivery address (street, city, state, postcode, country), the cart contents (item names, quantities, weights and prices), the basket subtotal and the store currency, so RentADriver can price the trip. It sends this only while calculating shipping, and caches the answer for two minutes.
When an administrator opens the Overview, Orders or Delivery settings pages, the plugin reads the store’s status, recent orders or settings from the API using your store ID and rate token; saving settings or testing a rate sends those values (and the address you typed for the test); creating a test order reads the store’s mode first. Syncing store details (the button, or saving WooCommerce General settings) asks the API to re-read your store address, currency and timezone through the WooCommerce REST API. Nothing is requested for a store that is not connected. Connecting sends your store URL and, after you approve WooCommerce access, exchanges a one-use handoff for checkout credentials.
Choosing Open RentADriver contacts the API with your store ID and rate token to read the current account binding. An administrator-approved, one-use proof is verified through your authenticated WooCommerce REST API; the resulting one-use sign-in link opens https://rentadriver.ai/woocommerce in a new tab. No long-lived key is placed in that URL.
When orders are retrieved or processed for delivery, the connector reads order details and relevant customer contact and address data through the WooCommerce API. These are used for delivery management, booking, tracking and fulfillment updates. Booking is performed by the RentADriver connector.

rentadriver-delivery.zipyou downloaded from the RentADriver app, and activate it. - WooCommerce → Settings → Shipping → your local zone → Add shipping method → “Same-day by RentADriver”.

- On the Overview page, choose “Link account” and sign in to your RentADriver account in the new tab (OAuth, or an administrator API key under Advanced).
- Set your radius, cut-off, pricing and booking preferences under RentADriver → Delivery settings, and try an address with “Test rate”.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a RentADriver account?
Yes. Connect or create your RentADriver account from the hosted app after connecting your store.
What happens after my cut-off time?
By default the rate is still offered, scheduled for the next morning. You can turn that off, in which case the rate is hidden after the cut-off.
Why is no rate shown at checkout?
The address is outside your radius, the basket is under your minimum, the items exceed your maximum size, it is after the cut-off with next-day disabled, or the destination is outside RentADriver’s coverage. The RentADriver app shows the reason for every rate request.
Does the customer pay what RentADriver charges me?
Only if you choose to pass the quote through. You can add or subtract a percentage, charge a flat amount, or make delivery free over a basket size — you still pay the live quote.
Can I book an order that did not use the RentADriver rate?
Yes, from the Orders tab of the RentADriver app, or by setting “Book automatically” to every paid order.
How do I try it without real orders or drivers?
Switch the store to sandbox in the RentADriver app (simulated drivers, no charges). Then go to RentADriver → Test rate → Test order and create a test order to an address inside your delivery area. It is a paid WooCommerce order with no payment taken, shipped with Same-day by RentADriver: a simulated driver is booked, the order gets the tracking notes and is completed on delivery. Sandbox deliveries update only test orders (these, or orders paid with WooPayments in test mode); real orders are never touched.
