You don’t have to enable them to have WooCommerce Delivery Slots working on your store. However, if you’d like to allow customers to pick a specific time slot as well as a date for collection/delivery, you can do. These time slots can be fully customized with additional fees, slot duration, maximum orders and more. To find your time slot settings, take the following steps: 1. From your WordPress dashboard, go to **WooCommerce** > **Delivery Slots** and click the **Time Settings** tab. Time slots allow you to have full control of your delivery/collection schedule so we recommend following our various User Guides to help you get started: - [How to set up time slots](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-set-up-time-slots/) - [How to charge additional fees for time slots](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-charge-additional-fees-for-time-slots/) - [How to limit the number of orders within a time slot](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-limit-the-number-of-orders-within-a-time-slot/) - [How to set up maximum orders per day and per time slot](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-set-up-maximum-orders-per-day-and-per-time-slot/) ### How to use WooCommerce Delivery Slots for collection/local pickup ![collection and local pickup](https://docs.nexcess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/checkout-updated-collection-1024x469-1.png) WooCommerce Delivery Slots doesn’t only allow you to customize your delivery schedule, it also allows you to offer collection/local pickup too. By adjusting a few settings, you’ll be able to change the wording on your site from ‘delivery’ to ‘collection’, change your date and time slots and manage your collections all within WooCommerce. **See how to set your store up for collection/local delivery with our guide:** [How to use WooCommerce Delivery Slots for collection/local pickup](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-set-up-delivery-collection-days/) Alternatively, if you’d like to offer both delivery and collection on your store, you can do that too. **Take a look at our guide to set it up:** [How to offer both delivery and collection at the checkout](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-offer-both-delivery-and-collection-at-the-checkout/) ### How to offer time slots based on the postcode/zipcode/shipping zone Your store’s delivery or collection schedule might need to be adapted to suit your needs. For example, if you have hyper-local customers, and some that are further away, you might want to set separate time slots to accommodate them. Either that or, you might want to offer time slots to customers who live within a certain shipping zone. With WooCommerce Delivery Slots, you can use the shipping zones within WooCommerce (which include postcodes, zipcodes and regions), coupled with your time slots to create an entirely customised delivery or collection schedule. **Read our full guide to set this up:** [How to offer time slots based on the postcode/zipcode/shipping zone](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/kadence/iconic/delivery-slots/how-to-offer-time-slots-based-on-the-postcode-zipcode-shipping-zone/) ### How to manage upcoming deliveries ![Upcoming deliveries](https://docs.nexcess.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Upcoming-deliveries-1024x333-1.png) Now that you’ve customized WooCommerce Delivery Slots to suit your store’s delivery capacity and needs, you’ll start to see orders coming in. Managing these orders can be done in a few ways, depending on your preference and the type of orders you’re taking. We recommend managing your Delivery Slots orders using the Deliveries page. This page will allow you to see all upcoming deliveries, order contents, customer names, order status, and more. To find the Deliveries page, in your WordPress dashboard go to **WooCommerce** > **Deliveries** (under Delivery Slots). **We’ve put together an in-depth guide to help you navigate this section of your store.
