Allow customers to select delivery/pickup spots on Google Maps at Checkout. Create shipping workflows for smooth order handling and better pricing.
Do you run a WooCommerce store where you need more detailed location information from a customer? If so, then why not let them choose their exact location on Google Maps?
Kikote (pronounced Key-Ko-tay) is a Location Picker At Checkout plugin for WooCommerce which allows store owners to add more flexibility to their WooCommerce store by letting their customers choose exactly where they’d like their product(s) delivered.
This plugin is excellent for stores with delivery personnel that ship products to customers within a moderate geographical area. It can also work for websites which offer Pickup services such as Private Taxi websites.
Kikote – Location Picker At Checkout for WooCommerce enables store owners to get more precise location details without having to contact customers via other means for location information or directions. With this plugin, lots of time can be saved by allowing customers to select their exact location on Google Maps at checkout with WooCommerce.
The plugin does not currently support the WooCommerce Blocks checkout. To use this plugin you need to have a normal checkout page that has the [woocommerce_checkout]
shortcode. If you’re setting up a brand new website with a fresh version of WooCommerce installed on it, then by default, WooCommerce will create your checkout page as a Blocks checkout page.
For this plugin to work, you need to delete all contents of that blocks page and add the shortcode: [woocommerce_checkout]
inside it. You can see this link for reverting to classic checkout WooCommerce doc
Once thats done you’ll have the normal WooCommerce checkout page and the plugin options will show. Still need help? Submit a support request here.

Create as many shipping zones and draw as many shipping regions as you like. Kikote will automatically set the cost of the shipping method once a customer falls within those drawn regions.

Though the primary focus of the plugin is to allow customers to select accurate locations by using a map. Location Picker at Checkout for WooCommerce also allows store owners to enable the Places autocomplete feature on their checkout address fields.

When a customer clicks the desired address from the dropdown, it can also automatically fill in the rest of the checkout fields. This feature is also known as Google Address Autofill.
Allow customers to save multiple different addresses to their account that they can select from when placing an order. This feature is useful for customers who might be placing orders on your store from multiple locations.
A customer placing an order might not always be at the previously used address, with this feature they can select any previously saved address such as “Work”, “Home”, “Grandma’s” etc. Think of it as an address book for WooCommerce.
The PRO version of Kikote allows you to create custom shipping zones by drawing them on a Google Map. These Zones can each have their own shipping cost and you can additionally prevent customers from checking out if they do not fall in any of the custom shipping zones.
Kikote comes with multiple features to fine tune where you deliver to and how much you wish to charge. These include features such as “Cost by Distance”, “Cost by Distance Range”, “Cost by Region”, “Cost by Store Distance”, Maximum shipping distance, as well as Cost by Store.

In the PRO version of Kikote, you can attach shipping methods to the store locations you’ve created. Then you can attach Shipping Workflows to those shipping methods.
This allows you to create powerful shipping options for the customer by charging Cost by Region for a certain origin store (location) and Cost by Distance for a different origin store (location).
Customers will only be able to select the shipping method that is available for a particular origin store (location). In this context “origin” and “store” means where the order will be getting shipped from or taking place.

No! The plugin is free to use. The Google Maps APIs it uses, however, do require you to setup an account on Google’s Cloud Console. The process is easy and requires you also attaching a billing method to your account. Google provides a $200 monthly credit for usage of their APIs so you don’t have to worry about paying anything unless you receive alot of orders on your store (upwards of 15,000 orders in a month). See this step in the setup guide for more details about how this works.
