Let&#8217;s take a look at how the selected features affect the displayed FedEx rates in the free and PRO version of our FedEx for WooCommerce Live Rates plugin.<\/strong><br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>This article is based on several queries from our customers who were wondering how to properly configure the FedEx for WooCommerce plugin to receive actual shipping rates. In this article, we would like to provide you with some more details about what exactly affects the live rates it displays.<\/p>\n<h2>How FedEx for WooCommerce plugin calculates the shipping FedEx rates?<\/h2>\n<p>To better understand what affects the FedEx rates you should find out how the plugin works in general. How the <a href=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/product\/fedex-woocommerce-live-rates-pro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">FedEx for WooCommerce plugin<\/a> calculates the shipping rates? All the \u201cmagic\u201d happens in just three steps:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>The plugin creates API request based on the customer&#8217;s cart and plugin&#8217;s settings. Then sends it to FedEx API.<\/li>\n<li>FedEx API return API response with shipping rates.<\/li>\n<li>The plugin interprets data returned by the FedEx API and displays available services with rates.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a class=\"glightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-222879 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates.png\" alt=\"How FedEx for WooCommerce plugin gets live FedEx rates\" width=\"798\" height=\"564\" srcset=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates.png 798w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates-260x184.png 260w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates-712x503.png 712w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2020\/10\/How-FedEx-WooCommerce-plugin-gets-live-FedEx-rates-768x543.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 798px) 100vw, 798px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The key element is the API request.

If you would like to receive the rates assigned to your account (you have better terms and conditions), choose the<\/span><b> Account rates<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.

In that case, not all services may be available to pick by the customer every time depending on the package weight, origin, and destination.<\/div><\/span><\/p>\n<h3>Parcel Packing Method <sup style=\"color: #1d88d1;\">PRO<\/sup><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The parcel packing method allows you to <strong>divide the customer&#8217;s order into packages according to your preferences and the actual packages used in your warehouse.<\/strong> Each <a href=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/blog\/fedex-woocommerce-automatic-box-packing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">automatically added<\/a> package will affect the FedEx rates, but configured correctly allows you to receive more accurate shipping rates. In the FedEx for WooCommerce PRO plugin you can choose between the three options:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Pack into one box by weight<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; all the products in the shopping cart will be treated as if they are packed into one package. Their weight will sum up. That\u2019s why in this option, the only important factor is the total weight of all products. If you want to use it, please make sure all the products have their weight entered in the products\u2019 settings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Pack items separately<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; the shipping cost of all the ordered products will be calculated as if each of them was packed into its separate box. It means that if your customer will order five products, the FedEx plugin will calculate the shipping cost for five packages. It can highly increase the shipping rate, so use that option with caution. In this case, all the products&#8217; dimensions and weight need to be filled in as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Pack into custom boxes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211;\u00a0 products will be divided and matched to the created custom packages using the most effective way. FedEx for WooCommerce plugin allows you to set your own custom boxes or use predefined standard FedEx boxes. The plugin will calculate rates as a sum of the shipping cost for each standard or custom box used. To work properly, all the products need to have their weight and dimensions entered first. You can choose <em>Pack into custom boxes<\/em> among two types: 3D bin packing or volume packing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"glightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3d-bin-packing.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-344033\" src=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3d-bin-packing.png\" alt=\"3D bin packing\" width=\"1389\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3d-bin-packing.png 1389w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3d-bin-packing-260x74.png 260w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/3d-bin-packing-712x202.png 712w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1389px) 100vw, 1389px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"glightbox\" href=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/volume-packing.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-344034\" src=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/cdn-cgi\/image\/format=auto\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/volume-packing.png\" alt=\"Volume packing\" width=\"1370\" height=\"379\" srcset=\"https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/volume-packing.png 1370w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/volume-packing-260x72.png 260w, https:\/\/octolize.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/volume-packing-712x197.png 712w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1370px) 100vw, 1370px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><div class=\"info-box  \u201dinfo\u201d   \">Please have in mind that these options require certain products\u2019 details such as dimensions and weight.
