Thank you! I added the app and will watch the set-up video and reach out with questions.
Topic summary
Request: Set shipping rates as a fixed percentage of the order total across all products.
Solutions offered:
- ShipMagic: Supports percentage-based rates. The requester has installed it and plans to follow the setup video and ask questions if needed.
- Smart Shipping Rates: Also supports percentage of order total (e.g., 5%) and can apply rules across all products; described as user-friendly and customizable.
ShipMagic setup (brief steps provided):
- Sync shipping zones in app settings.
- Create a new shipping rate rule.
- Condition: Cart subtotal > 0; Match type: All.
- Rate type: Percentage of total price of items matching the rule.
Outcome/status:
- The immediate need is addressed; an app (ShipMagic) has been adopted and configured with guidance.
- Another viable alternative (Smart Shipping Rates) was shared for consideration.
- Discussion appears largely resolved, with onboarding in progress and no unresolved questions noted.
