Last updated on October 1, 2022 @ 9:17 pm

When you sell products online, customers want to know when they can expect to receive their order. An estimated delivery date lets them know when to expect their purchase, and helps manage customer expectations.

To show your estimated delivery date on Shopify:

1.

From your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Shipping.

2. In the Delivery dates section, select Show delivery dates on product pages.

3. Choose the Calculation method that you want to use to calculate estimated delivery dates, then click Save.

Your estimated delivery date is now visible on your product pages!

PRO TIP: If you are planning to show your estimated delivery date on Shopify, please be aware that there are some potential risks involved. First and foremost, if you do not accurately estimate the delivery date, you could end up disappointing your customers. Secondly, if you do not have a good reason for why the delivery date is estimated (e.g. your product is made-to-order), customers may be suspicious of your motives. Finally, if you consistently underestimate the delivery date, customers may start to lose faith in your ability to deliver on time, which could damage your reputation.

Estimated delivery dates are a great way to manage customer expectations and keep them informed about when they can expect to receive their purchase. By following the steps above, you can easily show your estimated delivery date on Shopify.
