Radius, Road Distance, and Delivery Fees

Here are some things you need to consider when you configure the radius kilometer coverage and delivery fees.

What is a Radius?

Radius is the distance from the center of a circle to a point on the circle.

RUSH uses the coordinates (longitude and latitude) from Google where your branch or store location will always be the center.

From the RUSH eStore CMS merchants can easily expand or reduce their store’s radius kilometer coverage. This feature determines the store’s serviceable area, which in turn also affects the store’s searchability depending on the customer's delivery address. 

To check and update your store’s radius kilometer coverage:

  1. Log in to the RUSH CMS
  2. Go to E-Store module
  3. Select the Settings tab
  4. Look for Radius
  5. Input the kilometer radius around your store which you want to reach/serve

 

 

If you are availing the services of our logistic partners to fulfill your orders, here are some things you need to consider to configure the radius kilometer coverage and delivery fees.


What is a Radius?

Radius is the distance from the center of a circle to a point on the circle.

RUSH uses the coordinates (longitude and latititude) from Google. Your branch or store will always be the center.

In the illustration below, we use SM North Edsa as the center. Extending the radius to 6KM coverage will make areas like (N) Sauyo, (E) Ateneo De Manila University, (W) Caloocan City Hall, and (S) Robinson's Magnolia serviceable. These areas are all considered to be within the set radius kilometer coverage.

 

Road Distance and Delivery Fees

While Radius Kilometer Coverage identifies the serviceable areas of your store, the Road Distance varies based on the actual route taken by the rider fulfilling the delivery. Hence, the Delivery Fee for every transaction is dependent on the road distance covered and not by radius kilometer coverage.
