Optimise logistical communication in your shop with a lightweight Entry-Level solution.
The Order Cutoff Time module for PrestaShop (1.7–8.x–9.x) is a tool that automates the display of order fulfilment time messages. Thanks to precise calculations based on server time, the system informs the customer how much time they have to finalise their purchase so that the parcel is shipped today (e.g. "Order by 14:00 and we will ship today!" ).
The presented free version (Standard) provides a solid foundation for shops wanting to test the impact of "Same-Day Shipping" logistics on conversion, offering key business logic without unnecessary code burden.

Why implement Order Cutoff Time in the Free version?
In modern eCommerce, transparency is key to closing sales. The module eliminates customer uncertainty by providing them with hard logistical data at the product card level.
- Sales psychology (FOMO): Subtle time pressure motivates faster purchase decisions.
- Customer Service optimisation: Significant reduction in queries about status and shipping time.
- Operational logic: The system takes into account working days and automatically shifts the declared shipping date for weekend orders (Skip Weekends).
- Safety and performance: Architecture based on native Hooks, guaranteeing stability during PrestaShop updates.
Key features (Admin Panel)
1. Intelligent cutoff logic (Cutoff Logic)
Configure shipping parameters according to your courier agreement:
- Cutoff Hour: Precise time specification (HH:MM), after which orders move to the next working day.
- Shipping Mode (Ship Mode): Choice between declaring shipping today or shipping tomorrow.
- Weekend handling: Automatic detection of Saturdays and Sundays – the module intelligently shifts the deadline to Monday/next working day.
2. Personalisation and Internationalisation
- Dynamic variables: Use tags
{cutoff},{ship_day}and{ship_date}to create naturally sounding messages. - Multilingual support: Full translation handling (each language in the shop can have a unique content format).
- Conditional logic: Different content for customers before and after the cutoff hour.

FAQs
-

-
How does the Order Cutoff Time module work?
The module automatically displays a message on the product page based on server time. It tells customers how much time remains until a set cut-off time and, once that time has passed, can show the message intended for the next working day. It follows configured time logic without requiring manual content updates.
-
How do I set the cut-off time in the module?
In the Back Office, you can define the cut-off time in HH:MM format. This is the point after which the module applies different message logic. The configuration also lets you choose whether the statement concerns the current or next day, so storefront messaging matches the shop’s workflow.
-
Does the module take working days into account?
Yes. The Skip Weekends feature accounts for Saturdays and Sundays in its calculations. If the selected date falls on a weekend, the module automatically moves it to the next working day. This keeps customer-facing messages aligned with the shop’s working schedule.
-
Can I change the content of dynamic messages?
Yes. Message content can be built with the
{cutoff},{ship_day}and{ship_date}variables. They insert the current cut-off time, day name or calculated date into the text. You can also prepare different messages for before and after the configured time. -
Can messages be tailored to multiple shops and languages?
The module supports multiple languages and MultiStore. You can prepare a custom message format for each language, and configuration can be independent for individual shops within one PrestaShop installation. This makes it easier to adapt content to different language versions and shop structures.
