Anyone?
Topic summary
-
Goal: add a 2–4 day processing time for made-to-order jewelry so buyers see the delay before shipping.
-
Platform limits: Shopify has no built-in option to set or display product-specific processing/handling time.
-
Workarounds provided:
- Rename the shipping rate titles shown at checkout to include processing time (clarified that the “service displayed at checkout” refers to these shipping rate names). A help link was shared on how to change shipping rate titles.
- Use a third-party app (example: PH Ship, Rate & Track) that can add “buffer days” to the ETA (estimated time of arrival), i.e., extra days added to delivery estimates to account for production time.
-
Status: Guidance given with a specific app suggestion and a link for renaming shipping rates. OP asked for clarification and received it; no confirmation of adoption, so the thread is effectively answered but not formally resolved.
