Introduction
The Variable Math element is great for products and services that require you to customize the math of a product or service using variables. For example: $productOne x $productTwo / 30.
Note: You may want to read about our Custom Math element that is used for triggering fees/discounts, charging base fees, adding percentages to the end of your total, converting totals to monthly pricing, and much more.
Use Cases
- Shipping Rates - Fees based on length, width, and height of a shipping item.
- Mortgage Calculator - Calculate a monthly fee.
- Loan Calculator - Add an interest (percentage) to the number of days or months the user wants to borrow money.
Limitations
- WooCommerce Shipping Functionality - SCC will not pay the fee to a shipping option in WooCommerce. We recommend you use the shipping rate functionality of WooCommerce that is built-in.
