From the shipping setup dashboard, click Advanced Options to open the configuration dialog. Changes take effect after you re-sync rates to Shopify.
Fallback Rate
A fallback rate is used when no calculated rate matches a customer’s order (e.g., an unmapped product or unexpected cart combination).
| Setting | Description |
|---|
| Enable Fallback Rate | Show a default shipping price instead of no shipping option |
| Fallback Amount | The flat rate to charge (e.g., $9.99) |
Choose a price that covers your average shipping cost so you don’t lose money on edge cases.
Max Shipping Price
Cap the shipping price shown to customers. If a calculated rate exceeds this amount, the max price is shown instead.
| Setting | Description |
|---|
| Enable Max Price | Cap shipping rates at a maximum |
| Max Amount | The ceiling price (e.g., $15.00) |
Expedited Shipping
Offer a faster option alongside standard rates.
| Setting | Description |
|---|
| Enable Expedited Rate | Show an expedited option at checkout |
| Expedited Rate | Fixed price for expedited shipping (e.g., $14.99) |
| Delivery Speed | Estimated timeframe shown to customers (e.g., “1-3 business days”) |
When enabled, customers see two options at checkout: the calculated standard rate and the fixed expedited rate.
International Shipping
Set a flat rate for international orders.
| Setting | Description |
|---|
| Enable International Rate | Offer international shipping at checkout |
| International Rate | Flat price for international shipments (e.g., $24.99) |
International rates are currently flat (not zone-calculated). We are working on adding international support to the full order-based rates feature. Customs and label creation for international orders are handled through the international shipping workflow.
Syncing Changes
