Can an app let customers hold shipping to combine orders?

Shopify Discussion

Is there any type of app that gives the customer the option during checkout to hold shipping in order to combine multiple orders and pay shipping once?
Some of my customers order a couple of times during the month, so I was thinking maybe I could offer this option.
Thanks

Hello @joycenabhan

Shopify does not have inbuilt functionality like this. Instead you can use Shopify Marketing and provide selected customers free shipping discount coupons. This will help you win customer trust and more customer to customer promotion(Just an suggestion).

You can also look into shipping and checkout apps from Shopify app store.

Hope this helps.

In fact this isn`t really what I’m looking for, I want to be able to provide my clients this option during checkout.

For example, when they place an order, they can choose hold shipping, and once they’re ready they choose to merge multiple orders, pay for shipping and I can ship out. So it will be on the client’s side, not me
