ProductCart v3 - Free updates

ProductCart v2.76

  • Upgrade to v3 Now Available
    The largest ProductCart upgrade we have ever worked on. Discover what's new in v3.
  • 6.19.06 - FedEx rates not being returned.
    If your store is using FedEx as one of the shipping providers, the store will no longer be able to retrieve shipping rates from the FedEx Web site. This is because it is no longer possible to obtain shipping rates via HTTP requests, which was the technique used by ProductCart v2.7x. The change on the FedEx Web site that has caused this is outside of our control. FedEx now only allows rates to be retrieved via their API.

    The good news is that we have been working closely with FedEx over the last several months and we are in the very final steps of their official certification program. ProductCart v3, which is now available, supports full integration with the FedEx API and allows you to finalize shipments right from the ProductCart Control Panel (printing labels).
