Under the "Shipping" section, create a new rate or edit an existing one within your shipping zones. Choose "Add rate," set the rate name (e.g., "Free Shipping"), and specify the minimum order price for this rate to apply. Ensure no cost is entered for the rate. Save your changes, and customers will now see the free shipping option when their order total exceeds the specified amount.

Creating Shopify custom shipping options lets merchants offer tailored delivery solutions that meet specific business needs. Shopify’s native settings allow for basic customization, but with Calcurates, businesses can introduce advanced options like carrier-based rates, delivery date selectors, or packaging-specific pricing. Custom shipping options improve the customer experience by providing flexibility and clarity during checkout. Whether offering same-day delivery, store pickup, or location-specific rates, customized shipping configurations help align fulfillment strategies with customer expectations. This customization is particularly useful for niche markets or complex product catalogs.
