Set shipping costs
A shipping cost rule decides what a customer pays for shipping, for example free above a certain order value and a fixed amount per country below it.

Before you begin
- You need Backoffice access and the Configuration role. To create or delete a rule you need Owner access.
- Which carriers a customer can pick is set by another rule, on the Carriers page.
Read the rule of the example
Go to Shops & Channels > Shipping Costs and click the rule.

| Subrule | IF | THEN Set shipping costs |
|---|---|---|
| Free from € 750 | Order subtotal is 750 or more | 0 |
| Belgium and Germany | Delivery country is Belgium or Germany | 24.95 |
| Standard Netherlands | Every order | 12.50 |
The switch stands on first, so the first subrule that is true decides. An order of € 800 to Belgium ships free. An order of € 300 to Belgium costs 24.95.
Change the shipping costs
- Open the rule and click a subrule to open it.
- Change the value in the condition or the Price under THEN. A price excludes VAT.
- To add a step, click Add subrule and drag it to its place in the list.
- Click Save.
The new costs count from the moment you save. Keep a last subrule that is true for every order, so no order is left without a shipping cost.
In the Sales Hub a sales rep can set another amount by hand on one quote or order. See Check the totals.
