How Do I Set Up Free Shipping on Shopify?

Last updated on January 13, 2023 @ 3:14 am

The holidays are a busy time for ecommerce businesses. If you’re selling products online, you want to make sure your shipping is set up and ready to go so you can take advantage of the holiday sales.

Shopify makes it easy to set up free shipping for your store. Here’s how:

    1. Log in to your Shopify admin panel. Go to Settings > Shipping. From here, you can add or edit your shipping rates.

    2. Create a new shipping rate. Click the “Add shipping rate” button. This will take you to the Add shipping rate page, where you can enter the details of your shipping rate.

    3. Enter the details of your shipping rate. In the “Name” field, enter a name for your shipping rate.
    This is the name that will be displayed to customers at checkout. In the “Price” field, enter “0”. This will make your shipping rate free for customers.

    4. (Optional) Set conditions for your free shipping rate. If you want to offer free shipping only for certain products, or only to certain customers, you can set conditions for your shipping rate. For example, you could set a condition so that only orders over $100 qualify for free shipping.

    5. (Optional) Set a minimum order amount for free shipping.

    If you want to offer free shipping only on orders over a certain amount, you can set a minimum order amount in the “Minimum order amount” field. For example, if you set this field to “100”, then customers will only get free shipping if their order total is $100 or more.

    (Note: The minimum order amount must be less than or equal to the price of the cheapest item in your store.)

PRO TIP: If you are planning to offer free shipping on your Shopify store, there are a few things you should be aware of. First, free shipping is only available to customers in certain countries. Secondly, even if you are offering free shipping, you will still need to pay for shipping costs. Lastly, be sure to set up your free shipping properly so that customers do not experience any issues when trying to checkout.

Conclusion:

Setting up free shipping on Shopify is easy and only takes a few minutes. By offering free shipping, you can encourage customers to buy more items from your store during the holiday season. Free shipping is a great way to boost sales and grow your business.
