How can I add a handling fee for local pickups in my online store?

[cbutler_mchugh]

Due to the way our company is Run (we manufacture products in-house), we cannot add a markup on our products to cover the handling fee (The internal sales program has the same pricing as the online store), as that would decrease our online store sales, and they'd come in-store instead.

We want to know if there is a way to add a handling fee for the pickups.

We have added the fee through Shipping and delivery rates.

Our Shipping app doesn't have the capability of adding a handling surcharge, we are currently using shipping and delivery by ShipZip.

Any Suggestions are welcome. Could there be a way to add a fee for a % of the whole checkout price?

We have had our external website builders create the store but will charge us $$$$$ to look into this. Was hoping we would be able to figure it out ourselves to save the company some money.

Hey there! I'm not aware of a native solution in Shopify, but here are some alternative ways to achieve what you want to do.

• You may want to add the handling fee at the variant level of the product pages.
• Try a different shipping app (like Starshipit) which gives you more control over your shipping rates and surcharges.

• Alternative approach: Increase your product cost directly, or increase your shipping rates in general?

Are you on Shopify Plus?

This might be possible with checkout extensibility/checkout UI extensions.

You would be able to automatically add a "surcharge" product to the cart if the customer had selected local pickup as their delivery option.

Hey there,

I'm unsure of this, I have taken a snip of what our plan is.

Thanks for sharing the snip. You are not on Shopify Plus (IIRC, it's about $2k/month).

I would recommend following @DavidNZSSI 's suggestions in your case.

Best of luck,
