Description
Offer PEX carrier shipping in your WooCommerce store without leaving the dashboard you already know. PEX Automático is a free extension for Correios Automático that adds PEX as a zone-based shipping method: customers see price and delivery time in real time at checkout, in the SEDEX (PEX) and PAC (PEX) service types, with quote caching to keep the store fast.
After payment, the plugin works on its own: it generates the QR-code label in the background, records the tracking code and syncs the shipment status every 30 minutes directly with the PEX webservice. A delivered package automatically completes the order, with order notes, tracking event history and tracking emails flowing through the same Correios Automático structure.
Everything is managed on the same orders screen and the same dashboard: credentials configured once, discount rules identical to the Correios method, and one-click label printing. Merchants coming from the legacy PEX plugin get their credentials and past shipments imported automatically on activation.
⚠️ Important: checkout freight quotes work with the free Correios Automático plugin. Label printing and the automations (automatic labels, tracking sync, order status and emails) require Correios Automático PRO.
🧾 Extension features
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Checkout quotes | Calculates PEX price and delivery time in real time at checkout, for the SEDEX (PEX) and PAC (PEX) service types, with a 15-minute cache for successful quotes. |
| Full shipping method | WooCommerce zone-based shipping method with custom title, added or fixed delivery time, flat and percentage surcharges, minimum dimensions and weight, and extra weight per order or per product. |
| Discount rules | Uses the same discount rules engine as the Correios shipping method, so rules stay consistent across carriers. |

| QR-code label | The label includes the QR code returned by PEX, upscaled for crisp printing, with its own print page plus integration with the Correios Automático print screen. |
| Automatic tracking | Syncs shipment statuses with the PEX webservice every 30 minutes, in batches, recording each change as an order note and an event in the tracking history. |
