Add Shipping Charges along with COD

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

Goal: Apply shipping and COD fees with clear rules.

Requested rules:

  • COD orders: Rs. 50 COD fee. If order value < Rs. 350, add Rs. 50 shipping (total Rs. 100). If ≥ Rs. 350, only Rs. 50 COD fee.
  • Prepaid orders: If order value < Rs. 350, Rs. 50 shipping. If ≥ Rs. 350, no charges.

Proposed setup:

  • Use Shopify Settings > Shipping and delivery to create a shipping profile with price-based rates: Rs. 50 shipping for orders below Rs. 350; free shipping for orders Rs. 350 and above.
  • For COD fee, use a third-party app to add a custom COD charge (Shopify does not natively support COD surcharges). Configure the app to apply Rs. 50 only when COD is selected.

Status and next steps:

  • Guidance provided; no confirmation of implementation yet.
  • Action items: create the shipping profile, set price conditions, install/configure a COD-fee app, and test all four scenarios.

For my shopify store, I want to add shipping and COD charges as below:
Charges:

  • COD Order - Rs. 50 “COD Charges”
  • Order Below Rs. 350 - Rs. 50 “Shipping Charges”

Rules:

  • If COD order below Rs. 350 - Rs. 100 Charge (Rs. 50 as COD and Rs. 50 as Shipping Charges)
  • If COD order above Rs. 350 - Rs. 50 charge for COD only (no Shipping Charge)
  • If Prepaid Order Below Rs. 350 - Rs. 50 “Shipping Charge”
  • If Prepaid Order Above Rs. 350 - No Charges.

Guide me how I can implement this?

You can set this up by using Shopify’s shipping profiles and manual rates. In your admin, go to “Settings” > “Shipping and delivery,” create a shipping profile, and add conditions based on order price. For COD, you can use third-party apps that allow custom COD charges since Shopify doesn’t natively support it. Adjust your rates for orders under and over Rs. 350 accordingly.
