While checking out, your customer is presented with the available shipping services and the rates based on the shipping address and cart content.

What if I face issues with the plugin? Do you provide support for free products?

If you are facing any issues, please create a topic at the plugin support section on WordPress org. Our team will respond back soon.

After the setup, my site is still saying ā€œThere doesnā€˜t seem to be any available shipping methodsā€.

You can enable debug in settings and debug messages will start showing up on the cart/checkout page, from which you will get a clue what is the issue about. Hope the USPS shipping method is enabled. Product dimensions and weight is configured correctly.
