Price-Based Rates
Use this option if you want shipping charges to be assessed based on the total value of the shopping cart. You can create as many different Price-Based Rates as you want for the same Shipping Zone.
For example, you may want to offer three different shipping rates only to customers located in the United States and Canada:
- Express One-day Shipping
- 2-3 Day Shipping
- Standard Shipping
First, you'll create a Shipping Zone just for the United States and Canada. Next, you will create three different rates, each with their own Rate Amount.
Lastly, you'll create another Shipping Zone which includes all the other countries that you ship your product to, and create what ever shipping rates apply. You must create at least one shipping rate for each shipping zone.
Weight-Based Rates
Use this option if you prefer to assess shipping charges based on the total weight of the items in the shopping cart. For this option to work properly, you must have assigned weights to each of your physical products.
Enter the ranges of each rate in grams.
