Minimum Order Value for Shipping with Carrier Shipping Rates

[Blayr]

I have searched and searched and I cannot figure out how to do something that seems SO simple. Our packaging costs are HIGH, we have to be able to have a minimum order amount to ship our product. I cannot find the setting nor a discussion that talks about this. I did find mention on shipping profiles, but we are using UPS Carrier Calculated shipping rates so we don't get screwed, as our boxes are big and heavy. 

Help please!

Not a native feature, you would need to find an app integrating with the carrier service api, or use the weight trick to repurpose product weights to trigger specific shipping rates. 

Or do a theme customization preventing checkout until a threshold is met in the cart.

If you need such a customization you can contact me directly for services.

Hi @Blayr,

With the PH MultiCarrier Shipping Label app, you can set up a shipping condition with minimum order amount & set up UPS carrier services to ship your products.

Let me know if you have any queries, I will be happy to help!

Yes it is possible to set the minimum order value for shipping with carrier shipping rate by using the Cart Lock https://apps.shopify.com/cart-lock app easily. Here is how you can do it:

1. Open the app and click on the "Add a new rule" button.
2. Click "Add a new condition" and select the "Cart subtotal" then in the "Block if less than" field, put 250 or any number.
3. In the "Error message" field, add an appropriate message which will be displayed in the checkout page.
4. Save the rule.

Now you set a minimum order value successfully in your store.
