Shipping setup

Create a shipping method and its rates

  1. Open Logistics → Shipping and click New Shipping Method.
  2. General
    • Name — what shoppers see, for example Standard delivery.
    • Code — a short internal code, for example standard (letters, numbers, hyphen and underscore).
    • Delivery Time — for example "3–5 business days".
    • Carrier — Manual if you set prices yourself, or the courier that delivers it.
    • Rate Calculation — Manual (Rate Area) uses your own prices; Realtime (Carrier API) asks the courier for a live price (the carrier must be connected).
    • Icon — optional small icon next to the name.
  3. Click Save draft and configure rates. The method is saved as Disabled while you add prices.
  4. Delivery areas and rate tiers — click + Add delivery area, choose a rate area (or Default — all other destinations) and set its delivery days (From and To).
  5. In each area click Add Tier and set:
    • the range it applies to: Min Weight (g) / Max Weight (g), Min Order Value / Max Order Value, or Min Items / Max Items (leave at 0 for no limit);
    • Rate — the price. Rate Type Flat (an amount) or Percentage (of the cart). Tick Per Unit to charge per item or per kg. Click Save Tier.
  6. Optional: Free Shipping Threshold (free above a cart total), Surcharge / Surcharge (%) (added on top, for example for packaging), and User Groups to offer the method only to certain customers.
  7. Set Status to Active and click Save All.

Position sets the order in which methods appear at checkout.

Marketplace stores: a method can belong to one seller (Vendor Owner) or be offered to all sellers (Use for All Vendors).
