What is Hyperlocal Delivery?

Hyperlocal Delivery is for stores that deliver themselves to nearby customers: a bakery, a florist, a grocery, a pharmacy, a restaurant. You decide where you deliver, and the store makes sure nobody outside that area can place a delivery order.

What you get

  • Outlets. The shops or kitchens your deliveries leave from, each with a pin on the map.
  • Delivery areas for each outlet, set either as a list of pincodes or as a distance from the outlet (for example, everything within 5 km).
  • Per-area pricing: a delivery fee, an optional extra per km, a minimum order and a free-delivery threshold.
  • A delivery time per area ("60–90 min", "Same day") shown to shoppers.
  • "Deliver to …" on every page. Shoppers enter their pincode once and see straight away whether you deliver to them, on the product page and in the cart.
  • Checkout enforcement. An address outside your areas cannot be ordered for delivery.
  • Local delivery only for chosen products, such as cakes or flowers that must never be sent by courier.

What it does not do

  • It does not draw areas on a map; use pincodes or a radius.
  • A radius is measured to the centre of the shopper's pincode, not to their exact door.
  • It does not split stock between outlets.

It works on its own. If you also use Delivery Scheduling, shoppers pick a delivery slot for local orders as usual, and Pickup Points can offer collection to shoppers you can't deliver to.
