Product-Specific Shipping Rates

Some products in your catalog may not fit into the general shipping calculation you set up on yourShipping, Delivery, and Pickup page. Products that require special packaging may cost more to ship. 

To configure a Product-Specific Shipping Rate:

  1. Go to Catalog → Products.
  2. Click on the product that requires an individual shipping rate.
  3. When on the product editing page, switch to the Shipping & Pickup tab.
  4. Select one of these options: Use your store’s shipping methods, Specify shipping methods for this product, Fixed rate per item, or Free shipping.

Use your Store’s Shipping Methods (default option)

If your product doesn’t require any special shipping fees or delivery conditions, this may be your best bet. You can add a fixed fee to the rate (calculated according to the general shipping settings) as a surcharge to cover extra shipping costs:

Free Shipping

Any quantity of the product will be shipped free of charge:
