There are TWO methods of Charging for Shipping Rates
1. Create Your Own Shipping Rates
2. Obtain Shipping Rates Directly from Shipping Companies
Create Your Own Shipping Rates
Go to Admin > Settings > Shipping > Rates > Create Your Own Configuration
You can set your own shipping rates based on a Zone (geographical area), and an order value range. A zone is any Country, State/Province, or City/Town.
The order value is determined before any taxes, shipping or markup amounts.
Example: Charge $5.99 if the shipping address is in California and the order total is between $50 and $250
When a practitioner is checking out, its going to look to see if the receipient’s address is part of any of the zones which have a shipping rate setup, and will offer that rate as an option. You can create many rates for each zone, and even offer free shipping with this functionality. (just make the cost 0.00)
Click on “Setup Your Shipping Rates”
Click on “Add New Rate” You will be shown a screen that looks like this;
Name the Shipping Option
Select the Zone
Enter the Order Price Low
Enter the Order Price High
Enter the actual shipping price
Make sure the status is set to Active
