Free shipping

A free shipping rule makes your existing shipping rates cost nothing once the cart qualifies: "Free shipping over $75". There's no special shipping method to set up; your zones and rates stay as they are.

Set it up

1. Add a rule and choose Free shipping.
2. Minimum spend: counted on the products the rule covers, after other discounts. 0 makes shipping always free (for covered products).
3. Free shipping on:
   • All shipping methods: every rate becomes free.
   • Only the cheapest method that costs something: the cheapest paid rate becomes free, and faster options keep their price ("free standard shipping, express $18").
4. Optional: limit it to some products or categories in Applies to, or to some countries in Customers and schedule.
5. Publish.

Local pickup and other free rates

Rates that already cost nothing, such as Local pickup, are left as they are and don't count as "the cheapest": with Standard $8, Express $18 and Local pickup $0, "only the cheapest" makes Standard free.

What shoppers see

• Free rates show as free in the cart and at checkout, in the classic cart and the Cart and Checkout blocks.
• Until the cart qualifies, a nudge says how much is left: "Add $20.00 more for free shipping." See Countdowns and nudges.
• The order's shipping line records the rule and the cost before it, which counts towards the rule's results.

When several free shipping rules qualify, the first by priority applies.
