Offer free shipping

Last updated September 01, 2026 20:09

Offer free shipping options with $0 shipping rates or free shipping promotions.

If you sell physical products, you can offer free shipping by creating a free shipping rate, or a free shipping discount. Either option can increase sales, even if you factor the cost of shipping into the product price.

Offer free shipping with a shipping rate

Flat Rate

Use the Flat Rate shipping option. Enter Free shipping as the Option Name, then set both the Per Order Fee and the Fee Per Item to $0.00.

Weight-based

With weight-based shipping, you can assign different shipping costs to weight ranges—charging more for heavier items, and nothing for light orders. Set the cost of one of your weight ranges to $0.00.

Ensure you've added weights to all your products so checkout calculates shipping accurately.

Local customers only

To offer free shipping only to customers near you, creating shipping zones.

Offer a free weight-based shipping option

You can assign different shipping costs to product weight ranges with weight-based shipping. You can use this to charge more for heavier items, and also to offer free shipping on light orders. To create a free weight-based option, make the cost of one of your weight ranges $0.00. Ensure you've added weights to all your products so that shipping is calculated accurately at checkout.

Offer free shipping with a discount

Create a free shipping discount to remove shipping costs for any order or orders over a certain price. It can cover all shipping options, or just one.

You can create a discount code that customers can use to claim their free shipping.

Note: If you're on the Core, Plus, or Advanced plans, you can create an automatic discount that applies at checkout when an order qualifies.

How can I limit free shipping to specific products?

You'll set this up in reverse: instead of adding free shipping to some products, you'll withhold it from the rest using fulfillment profiles.

  1. Create a new fulfillment profile that contains all shipping options except the free shipping option.
  2. Assign the new fulfillment profile to every product you don’t want to offer free shipping on.

Products without that profile keep the free shipping option at checkout.
