How can I set up shipping rules to offer free shipping if a specific product is purchased with another product?
To set up shipping rules that offer free shipping when a specific product is purchased together with another, you can use Shopify’s Discounts and Shipping Profiles features. Here’s how you can configure this:
1. Create a Discount for Free Shipping
-
Go to Shopify Admin → Discounts.
-
Click Create Discount and choose Automatic Discount.
-
Set the Discount Type to Free Shipping.
-
Under Minimum Requirements, select Minimum Purchase Amount or Minimum Quantity of Items (depending on the criteria for the specific product).
-
In the Customer Eligibility section, you can set the discount to apply only when both products are in the cart.
2. Use Shipping Profiles to Set Specific Rules
-
In Shopify Admin → Settings → Shipping and Delivery, create Custom Shipping Profiles.
-
Assign the products that should trigger the free shipping to this profile.
-
Set up shipping rates for this profile, ensuring that free shipping applies when those specific products are purchased in combination with the others.
3. Consider Apps for Advanced Shipping Logic
- If you need more granular control (for example, offering free shipping on specific combinations of products), you can use a Shopify app like Advanced Shipping Rules or Better Shipping. These apps allow for more advanced conditional shipping rules based on product combinations.
This way, when a customer adds the specific product to their cart alongside the other, the free shipping offer will be automatically applied during checkout.
