How To Guides
Shipping
Step 1: Open Your Shipping Settings
- Go to your Vendor Dashboard
- Select Settings
- Click Shipping Settings
This will open the Shipping page, where you can see the countries (shipping zones) you can ship to.
Step 1: Open Your Shipping Settings
- Go to your Vendor Dashboard
- Select Settings
- Click Shipping Settings
This will open the Shipping page, where you can see the countries (shipping zones) you can ship to.
Step 2: Select the Country You Want to Ship To
Choose the country you want to set up shipping for.
Example:
I’m based in Australia and want to offer Standard shipping within Australia, so I click Edit on the Australia shipping profile.
Step 3: Add a Shipping Method
Inside the shipping profile:
- Click Add Shipping Method (bottom right)
- Select Flat Rate from the dropdown
- Click Add Shipping Method
- Click Edit on the newly added method
This will open the shipping method settings form.
Step 4: Name Your Shipping Method
In the Method Title field, enter a clear name such as:
- Standard Shipping
- Regular Post
This is what customers will see at checkout and lets them know this is your base-level shipping option.
Step 5: Choose your Shipping Classes
Now, find the shipping classes that best match the size and type of products you sell.
For Example I sell:
- Signed paperback books
- Special edition hardcovers
- Small merch items like bookmarks and stickers
This means I only need three shipping classes:
- Book – Medium → for hardcover books
- Book – Small → for paperback books
- Merch – Small → for bookmarks and stickers
Step 6: Enter Your Shipping Costs
Enter the postage cost next to each shipping class you use.
Example:
- Book – Medium: $12.00 (hardcover postage)
- Book – Small: $9.00 (paperback postage)
- Merch – Small: $2.50 (small envelope)
Leave all other shipping classes as N/A
Tip:
If you are using shipping classes, leave the main Cost field set to 0.
Step 7: Select the Calculation Type
At the bottom of the form, you’ll see the Calculation Type option.
This controls how shipping is charged when multiple items are purchased in one order.
You will need to select one of the following.
Per Order: Charge Shipping for the Most Expensive Shipping Class
(Recommended for books and merch)
This option means:
- You charge one shipping price per order
- The highest shipping cost item determines the rate
- Multiple items are shipped together at no extra cost
Example:
If a customer buys:
- A paperback book
- A bookmark
They are shipped together in one parcel, and the customer only pays the higher shipping cost (the book).
This is the best option for:
- Authors selling books
- Sellers offering small merch
- Orders that are typically shipped together
Per Class: Charge shipping for each shipping class individually
(Best for book box curators)
This option means:
- Shipping is charged separately for each shipping class in the order
- Shipping costs are added together at checkout
Example:
If a customer buys:
- Two book boxes
Shipping for each class is calculated and combined, reflecting the fact that these items may:
- Be heavy
- Require separate packaging
- Ship in multiple parcels
This option is best suited for:
- Book box curators
- Large or heavy items
- Products that are unlikely to be shipped together
Which Option Should I Choose?
- Choose Per Order if you ship items together in one parcel
- Choose Per Class if your products are large, heavy, or shipped separately
Once selected, click Save Changes.
