How free shipping appears to customers
Once free shipping is enabled and configured, it appears automatically on the checkout page within the available shipping options.
If the customer meets the free shipping conditions such as reaching a minimum order value or purchasing from eligible categories, the label “Free Shipping” will appear next to the shipping company name with no additional cost applied.
If the conditions are not met, the free shipping option will not appear. This ensures an accurate checkout experience aligned with your store rules.
Accessing free shipping settings
- From the main menu, click All, then select Shipping settings.
- Scroll to the bottom of the Shipping page and next to Free Shipping, click Customize.
Customizing free shipping rules
- To control free shipping conditions, click Add Condition.
- Enter the free shipping conditions that best suit your business.
You can define specific cities or countries eligible for free shipping once the customer exceeds the minimum purchase value you set.
