# Auto-detect the nearest pickup location

# Auto-detect the nearest pickup location

For stores with several pickup points, automatically suggest the location closest to the customer — so they don't have to scan a long list.

|| This feature requires the **Smart** plan or above.



## Overview

When you run multiple pickup locations, **auto-detect nearest pickup** picks the closest one for the customer based on their location, streamlining the choice. They can still switch to another location.

|| This only changes which location is suggested first — it doesn't restrict which locations customers can pick.



## Before you start

* You're on the Smart plan or above.
* You have **multiple pickup locations** — see [Manage your locations](#).

## Configuration options

| Option | Description | Plan | Notes |
| ---- |
| Auto-detect nearest pickup | Suggests the closest location first | Smart+ | Customer can still switch |



## Tips & Best practices

|| Most useful with several pickup locations — with one location there's nothing to detect.

| Keep location addresses accurate so "nearest" is calculated correctly.



## Troubleshooting

### It isn't suggesting the right location?

Confirm each location's address is accurate; detection relies on correct addresses.

### The option is disabled?

It requires the Smart plan or above.



## FAQ

### Does this stop customers choosing another location?

No — it only suggests the nearest; customers can switch.

### How do I turn it off?

Disable "Auto-detect nearest pickup" in General settings.
