Charge Shipping by Order Amount - Shipping Table

You may setup multiple custom shipping methods to cover your shipping restrictions and/or to provide shipping options to your customers.

You can have a table format by expanding upon the Charge Shipping Per Order article. Multiple shipping rates that apply to the same area would present the customer a choice to select the shipping cost that applies to them. For example, say you wanted to have these rates:

Orders up to $24.99 -> $5.00
Orders between $25 to $99.99 -> $4.00
Orders above $100 -> $3.00

To Setup a Table of Shipping Rates for Order Amounts:
  1. Navigate to the 'Edit Store' tab -> 'Shopping Cart' -> on the left-hand menu click on 'Shipping'.
  2. Click on 'Add Custom Shipping Method'.
  3. Enter a name for the shipping method.
    • This is displayed to the customer during the checkout process. If multiple shipping methods apply for the customer's location, they will have the option to choose which shipping method they would prefer.
  4. Select the country or countries that the shipping rate applies to.
    • If the shipping rate applies to the entire world, select 'Anywhere'.
    • If the shipping rate only applies to a single country, select 'Inside' and then use the 'Select options' drop down menu to select the country.
    • If the shipping rate applies to multiple countries, select 'Inside', and then use the 'Select options' drop down menu to select the applicable countries.
    • If the shipping rate applies to all countries with one or more exceptions, select 'Outside', and then use the 'Select options' drop down menu to select the country that you will not ship to.
  5. Specify the states or provinces that the shipping method applies to.
    • If you have selected United States or Canada and the shipping rate applies to the entire country, leave the field blank.
    • If the rate only applies to a specific state or province, enter the 2-letter abbreviation for the state or province. For example, for California, you would enter "CA". For multiple states or provinces, continue adding the variations for each one separated by commas: "BC, AB".
  6. Enter the cost per order value and leave the other cost fields at 0.00.
  7. Click on 'Add Custom Shipping Rate'.

Example:

  • Name: Orders up to $24.99
  • Country: Inside -> United States
  • States/Provinces: blank
  • Cost per order: 5.00
  • Name: Orders between $25 to $99.99
  • Country: Inside -> United States
  • States/Provinces: blank
  • Cost per order: 4.00
  • Name: Orders above $100
  • Country: Inside -> United States
  • States/Provinces: blank
  • Cost per order: 3.00
For a customer within the United States they would be presented with the above 3 options of $5, $4 or $3 shipping for their order. They would be responsible for selecting the correct rate.
