Mass upload of postal codes for delivery radius

[Josh123]

Hi everyone, 

I'm wanting to set a list of postal codes for my store to deliver to. Is there any way to add them all at once so that I don't have to manually add hundreds of postal codes one by one? I currently have them all in a spreadsheet. 

Also, let's say I deliver to all the houses in the L4C area. Do I have to type in each one, ie L4C 1V4, etc or can I just input L4C and have it cover all the postal codes that have that prefix?

Thanks!

Hi @Josh123 👋

Super sorry we are just now getting a reply to you! I will need to reach out to the product team to confirm this, as I'm not very familiar with international postal codes. 

Can you please post a link to your website so that I can bubble this up for you? 

Thanks in advance! And, please feel free to @ me with your reply so that I get a notification.

Hi @BernadetteA thanks for the reply! I basically just need a way to set specific radiuses for delivery so that I'm not accidentally charged for a $50 delivery when I don't deliver to somewhere. The problem with the km radius feature is that 99% of the time, and I would Imagine this is true of most people, the delivery radius isn't in a straight line in all directions. My website is www.allthecandy.ca thanks!

Hello @Josh123 👋

The radius option within delivery is measured in a straight line or 'as the crow flies' meaning it's measured as a straight line between the 2 locations, not following the road distance.

Using the suggested format might help if a delivery address that should be within the radius is giving you issues. We use Google Maps for delivery radius calculation and address formatting, so looking up the address there is helpful sometimes. 

Unfortunately, it is not currently possible to enter or import multiple zip codes at a time.

Thank you.
