What the plugin does

Three things, done well.

No upgrade tier, no per-seat pricing, no asterisks.

Live rates at checkout.

BlackBoxNG appears as a shipping option with a real price calculated from the recipient's Lagos address. Buyers see Standard and Express options and pick speed vs cost themselves.

Orders dispatch on their own.

Paid orders flow straight to BlackBoxNG. Your team books each one from the BlackBoxNG dashboard, or auto-book runs the queue if your business is on an active SLA tier.

Status syncs back into WooCommerce.

When the delivery is in transit or delivered, the WooCommerce order updates without anyone having to refresh anything. Cancellations sync the other way too.

Setup

Three steps. Under five minutes.

Once installed, you can change pricing modes and disconnect from the BlackBoxNG dashboard at any time.

  1. Step 01

    Install from WordPress.org.

    Search for "BlackBoxNG Delivery for WooCommerce" in the WordPress plugin directory and click Install + Activate. Free, no upgrade tier.

  2. Step 02

    Generate a one-time install token.

    Sign in at app.blackboxng.com and open Integrations → WooCommerce. Click Generate install token. The token is valid for 60 minutes and is single-use.

  3. Step 03

    Paste the token into WordPress.

    In WordPress admin, go to WooCommerce → BlackBoxNG. Paste the token and click Connect. Your store is linked. The shipping method shows up at checkout straight away; orders start flowing into BlackBoxNG on the next paid checkout.

Frequently asked questions

Questions store owners ask before installing.

Yes. The plugin is a connector for the BlackBoxNG dispatch service. Without an account, no rates are quoted at checkout and no orders are dispatched. Sign-up is free at app.blackboxng.com.
Lagos State, Nigeria. BlackBoxNG is a Lagos-only carrier. Orders going to addresses outside Lagos do not see the BlackBoxNG shipping option at checkout, so your other carriers handle them.
Your API key is stored encrypted in WooCommerce (AES-256-GCM, keyed off your site's AUTH_KEY). Order data is sent to BlackBoxNG over HTTPS only when you book a delivery. The plugin registers WordPress's built-in privacy exporter and eraser for admin-initiated requests covering BlackBoxNG tracking identifiers stamped on orders. See https://www.blackboxng.com/privacy for retention details on the BlackBoxNG side.
Deactivating the plugin stops new orders from being pushed to BlackBoxNG but leaves your historical orders, settings, and the encrypted API key in place. Uninstalling removes everything: the plugin registers a clean uninstall hook that revokes the BlackBoxNG-side credential and wipes plugin options.
Yes. The plugin is free and open source under GPL v2 or later. BlackBoxNG charges per delivery based on distance, weight, and tier; you see the price at checkout and the same price is reflected in the BlackBoxNG dashboard. There is no plugin upgrade tier, every feature is included.
For plugin-specific issues (WordPress side), open a thread in the WordPress.org support forum for the plugin. For BlackBoxNG-side issues (rates seem wrong, an order didn't book, a status didn't flow back), contact us from the BlackBoxNG dashboard so your account context is attached automatically.
