Delivery Types

Rendr supports several delivery types, each offering a different balance of speed and price. The available types for a given order are returned dynamically by the Quote API based on store configuration, carrier availability, and order details.

Available Delivery Types

How Delivery Types Are Returned

The Quote API returns only the delivery types available for a given request, based on:

• The store’s enabled delivery types
• The store’s operating hours and cut-off times
• The delivery address and serviceable radius
• Carrier availability and product type compliance

When booking a delivery, the chosen delivery_type from the quote response must be passed in the Request Delivery payload.

Third-Party Carrier Services

For standard and express delivery types, the quote response includes provider and service fields identifying the carrier and service level:

{

  "standard": {

    "price_cents": 800,
4
    "from_datetime": "2026-01-24T11:41:00+11:00",
