• To view this, click Settings at the bottom of the Shopify sidebar menu, then click Shipping.

You can use these Printful: Print-on-Demand Profiles to generate your Printful rates.

However, if you want more complex, customized blending of rates, we recommend integrating Printful and setting up a Printful Shipping Scenario within Intuitive Shipping. Situations where using Intuitive Shipping with Printful can be beneficial include:

• Multi-tier rates – e.g. offering your standard shipping rates, then adding Printful rates on top of the standard rates.

• Free Shipping based on the whole cart amount – e.g. free shipping over $50.

To integrate Printful with Intuitive Shipping, follow the steps below.

Get Printful API Key

To integrate Printful with Intuitive Shipping, you must enter a Printful API Key when setting up the Printful Shipping Method. Here’s how to obtain the API Key from Printful.

• Or, click Apps on the Shopify sidebar menu, then select Printful from the list of installed apps.

• Click Settings on the Printful menu, then click on API.

• Under API Access, copy the API Key.

• Click Apps on the Shopify sidebar menu again, then select Intuitive Shipping from the list of installed apps.

Add A Shipping Scenario

• Click the Shipping menu button, then select Shipping Scenarios from the drop-down list.

• Click the Add Shipping Scenario Button.

• Enter a Title for your Shipping Scenario – e.g. ‘Printful’.

Set Printful Vendor Condition

• Leave the Default settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Products with Custom Shipping Charges.

• Click the Add Another Condition button.

Insurance fees can be entered as a flat rate – e.g. 2.00 – or as a percentage – e.g. 3%.

You can add your carrier account credentials during setup or you can add them later if you don’t currently have an account with the carrier.

Carrier account credentials are not required for most carriers. If you do not have a carrier account with one of our partners, Intuitive Shipping uses the carrier’s standard retail rates if available.

Intuitive Shipping cannot access Shopify’s discounted carrier shipping rates. Learn how to use Intuitive Shipping with Shopify’s discounted rates here.

Add Carrier Credentials To A Live Rate Shipping Method

1) Add A Shipping Scenario or edit an existing one.

2) In the Shipping Methods section, click Edit beside an existing Live Rate Shipping Method or add a new one.

3) Enter or edit the Shipping Method’s Display Settings as needed.

4) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section – if not already selected – choose the desired Shipping Carrier from the Live Rates section of the drop-down list.

5) In the Carrier Settings section – e.g. UPS Settings – enter your carrier credentials.

The Carrier Settings section is named after the carrier you selected in Step 4.

For example, if you had selected FedEx instead of UPS in Step 4, the Carrier Settings section would be labeled ‘FedEx Settings’.

6) If needed, finish setting up your Live Rate Shipping Method.

Requirements

Each carrier has different credential requirements. For example, in addition to other account information, UPS requires an XML Access Key and FedEx requires an Authentication Key, whereas USPS requires just a User ID and Password.
