Hi Deb, Sounds like you don't need a new shipping module. What might be worth looking at is a combination of User data and Signals.
1. You could make the checkout only allowable for logged in users, very easy, just a switch in the shop settings. That way you have the details you need from each user. 2. Then use a signal, probably the 'order_success' signal, connect to it with your method, and use that method to fire off anything you like. Personally I always look at implementing signals first, there are tons littered throughout Satchmo, and they are just super useful for easy customisation.
