Your company has an online store using WooCommerce on WordPress. When a customer is figuring out the price for their order, wouldn't it be nice to give them the complete picture by showing them how much you'll charge for freight? By using Freightview for WooCommerce, you can pull your own carrier and broker rates and display them for your customers while they're shopping or checking out. You decide whether to show them the least expensive option or let them choose between different service levels and transit times.
