Here are some of the ways you can use Intuitive Shipping to safely deliver goods to your local customers.

Add A Free Local Delivery Scenario

Encourage local business by setting up a responsible Free Delivery Scenario that informs your customers how and when their order will be delivered, and create custom descriptions that provide shoppers with detailed information about their delivery.

With Conditions, you can determine if customers qualify for free local delivery based on Postal Code/ ZIP code, Distance, or City name.

You will need at least two (2) Shipping Scenarios to complete this setup – one for your Free Local Delivery option and one for customers that are not local.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Add a Shipping Scenario.

3) Set Visibility to On.

When Visibility is set to Off, Shipping Methods from this Scenario will only be visible when you use the customer name ‘Intuitive Shipping’ at checkout. Learn more about Visibility settings here.

4) Enter the Shipping Scenario Title – e.g ‘Free Local Delivery’.

The Shipping Scenario Title is not visible to customers, but it helps keep you organized within the Intuitive Shipping app.

Set The Condition

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Click the Add Another Condition button.

You can limit the free delivery option to local customers using a Condition based on either Distance, Postal/Zip Code or City.

Option 1: By Distance

To use Distance Conditions, you will need to add Google API credentials to your app Settings. Learn how to get Google API credentials and add them to Intuitive Shipping here.

1) Click the Condition field. Then select Distance from the Entire Cart Conditions section.

2) Set the Condition logic to Less than or equals.

3) Enter the Value as the amount of distance – e.g enter ’10’ if the distance limit is 10 kilometers.

Kilometers is the default distance unit in Shopify and cannot be changed.

Option 2: By Postal Code/ ZIP Code

1) Click the Condition field. Then select Postal Code/ Zip Code from the Customer Conditions section.

2) Set the Condition logic to Equals.

3) Enter the Value as the Postal Code or Zip Code range that covers your local delivery area- e.g. 90401:90411

If you want to include multiple postal codes or ranges, we recommend creating a Sub-zone Condition Group instead of adding multiple ranges to a single condition.

4) Select the Postal Code format.

When selecting UK postal code format, you must input the full postcode without spaces in Step 3 – e.g. AB10AA:AB99ZZ. Learn more about formatting postal codes in Intuitive Shipping here.

Option 3: By City

1) Click the Condition field. Then select City from the Customer Conditions section.

2) Set the Condition logic to Equals.

3) Enter the Value as the City name (or names, separated by comma).

City name Conditions are not case sensitive but do rely on consistent formatting.

That means typos and alternative spellings entered by the customer on the checkout page could cause the Condition to be ignored. For example, if the city Condition value is ‘St. Paul’ and the customer enters ‘St Paul’ (without the period) or ‘Saint Paul’, the Condition will not pass.

Add A Local Delivery Shipping Method

1) In the Shipping Methods section, click Add Shipping Method beside a Shipping Zone that includes your local delivery area.

Shipping Zones are created in your Shopify Settings and synced with Intuitive Shipping. To learn how to adjust your Shipping Zones, click here.

2) Enter a Title for your Shipping Method – e.g. ‘Free Delivery’.

Shipping Method Titles are visible to your customers.

3) If desired, complete the optional Display Settings for Service Code and Delivery Time.

4) Enter a Description that clearly explains how the delivery will occur – e.g. ‘ To protect the health of your family and our staff, we will leave the package at your door’.

Add The Shipping Cost

1) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, you can leave ‘Select The Shipping Calculation Method’ on Cart quantity. This is the default setting.

Since your Shipping Cost will be set to $0.00 (free), this setting can be any Cart Value setting.

2) In the Shipping Costs section, click the Add Another Shipping Cost button.

3) Enter the Up To limit as the ~ tilde symbol.

In the Intuitive Shipping app, the ~ tilde symbol means ‘Infinite’ (no limit).

4) Enter the Shipping Cost as 0 (zero).

Shipping Costs are based on your default currency which is set in your Shopify settings. If you change your default currency in Shopify, be sure to re-sync your settings with Intuitive Shipping.

5) Leave the Per Unit (Optional) setting blank.

6) Additional Settings are not required for Free Local Pickup.

Save Your Free Delivery Shipping Method

1) Click the Save button to save your Shipping Method!

Save Your Settings

When you return to the Edit Shipping Scenario screen, click the Save button!

Add An Option for Regional Customers

Don’t want to alienate customers who live just outside your free delivery range? It may not be feasible to provide them with the same free delivery offered to your truly local customers, so why not compromise? Set a threshold limit on the cart amount so customers outside the ‘always free’ zone have to spend a minimum amount to get free delivery.

Or, skip the free delivery minimum and charge a small, flat local shipping rate.

Add A Cart Threshold Limit For Free Delivery

To simplify the process, you can make a Duplicate of your Free Local Delivery Scenario, then make minor adjustments to the Condition and Shipping Methods, rather than creating a new Scenario from scratch.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside your Free Local Delivery Scenario.

3) Click the Duplicate button in the top right. This will create an exact copy of the Free Local Delivery Scenario, including any Shipping Methods.

4) Confirm Visibility is set to On.

5) Change the Title from ‘Copy of Free Local Delivery’ to something new – e.g. ‘Regional Delivery (Free over $25)‘.

The Shipping Scenario Title is not visible to customers, but it helps keep you organized within the Intuitive Shipping app.

Set The Conditions

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Edit the Condition, depending on how you set up the original Scenario:

Option 1: By Distance

a) Leave the Condition type set to Distance.

b) Change the Condition Logic to Greater than or equals.

c) Change the Value to an amount that is 0.1 greater than the ‘Free Local Delivery’ distance – e.g. if you used ’10’ (10 kms) as the maximum distance in your original Scenario, make this value ‘10.01’.

d) Click the Add Another Condition button.

e) Click the Condition field. Then select Distance from the Entire Cart Conditions section.

f) Set the Condition logic to Less than or equals.

g) Enter the Value as the amount of distance – e.g enter ’20’ if the ‘regional’ distance limit is 20 kilometers.

Option 2: By Postal Code/ ZIP Code

a) Leave the Condition type set to Postal Code/ Zip Code.

b) Leave the Condition logic set to Equals.

c) Change the Value to a different Postal Code or ZIP Code range that covers your expanded regional delivery area- e.g. 90401:90411.

Option 3: By City

a) Leave the Condition type set to City.

b) Leave the Condition logic set to Equals.

c) Change the Value to a different City name (or names, separated by comma).

3) Click the Save button to save the changes to your new Scenario.

Add A Regional Delivery Shipping Method

Instead of creating a new Shipping Method from scratch, you can edit the ‘Free Delivery’ Shipping Method that was copied over from your original ‘Free Local Delivery’ Scenario.

1) Click Edit beside the ‘Free Delivery’ Shipping Method.

2) Change the Title of the Shipping Method – e.g. ‘Regional Delivery’.

Shipping Method Titles are visible to your customers.

3) Update the other Display Settings as needed.

We recommend leaving the Description the as-is or using one similar to the one used in your ‘Free Delivery’ Shipping Method – e.g. ‘ To protect the health of your family and our staff, we will leave the package at your door’.

4) Scroll down to the Shipping Costs. section.

5) Leave the ~ (tilde) symbol as the Up To value.

In the Intuitive Shipping app, the ~ tilde symbol means ‘Infinite’ (no limit).

5) Change the Shipping Cost from ‘0’ to the amount you need to charge for delivery outside of your local ‘free’ area (below the cart threshold) – e.g. ’10’ ($10.00)

If it isn’t feasible to offer free shipping, even with a minimum cart amount, skip Steps 6 and 7.

6) Scroll down to the Free Shipping (Optional) section.

7) Activate free shipping when the cart total is greater than or equal to 25 ($25.00).

When the customer’s cart total is $25.00 or more, the shipping cost entered in Step 5 will be overridden and the customer will not be charged for shipping.

Add A Store Pick-up Scenario

If free local delivery isn’t an option for your store, or if you want to offer another choice to your local customers, allow them to schedule a time to come to your store by setting up a Safe Curbside or In-Store Pick-up Scenario. Use custom descriptions to inform your customers when and where to safely pick up their orders.

You will need at least two (2) Shipping Scenario to complete this setup – one for your Safe Store Pickup option and one for a non-local option.

• Click the Add Piece button and input dimensions for each additional piece.

Additional Pieces cannot be added to variants. If your product variants have different piece sizes, you will need to create each variant as its own product in your Shopify Products page.

Save Your Settings

• Click the Save button.

Adding Multiple Products

If you are creating dimensions for multiple products, we recommend following the above steps to manually add one product. After adding your first product, you can follow these steps to create dimensions for multiple products to see the correct formatting for piece dimensions.

But how do you know which one is best for you? Here are some examples that can help you make that determination.

Combined Volume

Combined Volume works best for soft goods like t-shirts that can be bent or manipulated safely into the same dimensions and can be shaped to fit a package.

Combined Weight

Goods that are packaged in larger quantities, such as nuts and bolts, or products that ship by the pound are bettered suited for the Combined Weight method.

Combined Quantity

It is generally better to use Combined Quantity when shipping irregularly shaped goods, or products that have a uniform size and shape such as baseball caps or other ‘stack-able’ items.

SmartBoxing™

SmartBoxing™ is best for shipping goods with varying dimensions. Our advanced algorithm compares the dimensions of all the items in the cart to all of your available package sizes to determine the most efficient fit.

There are a few different ways you can configure your custom shipping prices. One of the more common ways is to apply a custom shipping charge for each unit, such as $10.00 per item. You can also use custom charges to offer free shipping all the time or just for the first item. Alternatively, you can charge the customer for the first item and offer free shipping for each additional item.

To get started:

1) Click Products on the main menu.

2) Click Edit beside the Product that requires custom pricing.

Add Custom Prices For Each Item

This setup is ideal if you want to charge multiples of the same custom shipping price for each unit of the same product – e.g. if the custom shipping price is $5.00 and the customer orders 3 units, they’ll be charged $15.00 for shipping for that product.

For alternative ways to set custom shipping prices by product, go to Alternative Custom Pricing Options.

1) In the Shipping Zone Settings (Optional) section, add the custom price – e.g. ‘5.00‘ ($5.00) under both the Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Grayed-out numbers displayed in the price fields prior to adding your custom prices are placeholders for example only. They are not actual values.

Be sure to enter numerical values only. The ‘$’ symbol is not required and may result in errors if used.

Variants

If the Product has Variants, you can add custom prices to each variant individually. This is useful if some – but not all – of your variants have custom shipping prices, or if one or more variants has different shipping prices.

If all variants have the same custom shipping prices, you only need to enter the prices in the main (parent) product listing (see above). If custom shipping prices are different by variant, use the Variant settings instead.

1) Click Show Variants.

2) For each applicable Variant, add the custom price – e.g. ‘5.00‘ ($5.00) under both the Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Save Your Settings

Click the Save button!

Alternative Custom Pricing Options

You can use the fields for Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity to manage alternative shipping strategies.

Always Free

If you always want a product to have free shipping regardless of quantity:

1) In the Shipping Zone Settings (Optional) section, enter 0.00 only under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. Leave the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column blank. If free shipping is not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Grayed-out numbers displayed in the price fields prior to adding your custom prices are placeholders for example only. They are not actual values.

Be sure to enter numerical values only. The ‘$’ symbol is not required and may result in errors if used.

Variants

If the Product has Variants, you can add 0.00 to each variant individually. This is useful if some – but not all – of your variants are always free to ship, while the others have paid custom shipping charges – e.g. $5.00 – or don’t have any custom charges (leave them blank).

If all variants have the same custom shipping prices, you only need to enter the prices in the main (parent) product listing (see above). If custom shipping prices are different by variant, use the Variant settings instead.

1) Click Show Variants.

2) For each Variant that has free shipping charges, enter 0.00 only under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. Leave the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column blank. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Save Your Settings

Click the Save button!

First Item Is Free, Charge For Additional Items

If you want the first item to have free shipping and then charge another amount – e.g. $5.00 – to ship each additional item, you can use both Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns.

1) In the Shipping Zone Settings (Optional) section, enter 0.00 under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If free shipping is not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Grayed-out numbers displayed in the price fields prior to adding your custom prices are placeholders for example only. They are not actual values.

Be sure to enter numerical values only. The ‘$’ symbol is not required and may result in errors if used.

2) Enter the paid amount – e.g. 5.00 – under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Prices added to the ‘Additional Quantity’ column will not work if the ‘First Quantity’ column in the same Shipping Zone is blank.

This configuration means your customer will be not be charged for the first item but will be charged $5.00 per item for each additional item – e.g. if the customer orders 3 shirts, their shipping cost will be $10.00 for that product (free for the first item, $5.00 each for the second and third items).

Variants

If the Product has Variants, you can add 0.00 to the Custom Shipping First Quantity column and a paid amount to the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each variant individually. This is useful if some – but not all – of your variants are always free for the first item and have a paid amount for each additional item, or if one or more variants has different custom charges.

1) Click Show Variants.

If all variants have the same custom shipping prices, you only need to enter the prices in the main (parent) product listing (see above). If custom shipping prices are different by variant, use the Variant settings instead.

2) For each Variant that has free shipping charges for the first item, enter 0.00 only under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

3) For the same Variants, enter the paid amount – e.g. 5.00 – under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Charge For the First Item, Additional Items Are Free

If you want the charge an amount for the first item – e.g. $5.00 – and have free shipping for each additional item, you can use both Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns.

1) In the Shipping Zone Settings (Optional) section, enter the paid amount – e.g. 5.00 – under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Grayed-out numbers displayed in the price fields prior to adding your custom prices are placeholders for example only. They are not actual values.

Be sure to enter numerical values only. The ‘$’ symbol is not required and may result in errors if used.

2) Enter 0.00 under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If free shipping for additional quantities is not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Prices added to the ‘Additional Quantity’ column will not work if the ‘First Quantity’ column in the same Shipping Zone is blank.

This configuration means your customer will be charged $5.00 to ship the first item, and will not be charged for any additional items – e.g. if the customer orders 1 shirt, their shipping cost will be $5.00 for that product. If they order 3 shirts, their shipping cost will still be $5.00 for that product.

Variants

If the Product has Variants, you can add a paid amount to the Custom Shipping First Quantity column and 0.00 to the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each variant individually. This is useful if some – but not all – of your variants always have a paid custom shipping charge for the first item and are free for each additional item, or if one or more variants has different custom charges.

1) Click Show Variants.

If all variants have the same custom shipping prices, you only need to enter the prices in the main (parent) product listing (see above). If custom shipping prices are different by variant, use the Variant settings instead.

2) For each Variant that has paid shipping charges for the first item, enter the amount – e.g. 5.00 – only under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

3) For the same Variants, enter 0.00 under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Charge Different Custom Prices For First and Additional Items

If you want the charge one amount for the first item – e.g. $5.00 – and a different amount for each additional item – e.g. $7.50, you can use both Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns.

1) In the Shipping Zone Settings (Optional) section, enter the paid amount for the first item – e.g. 5.00 – under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Grayed-out numbers displayed in the price fields prior to adding your custom prices are placeholders for example only. They are not actual values.

Be sure to enter numerical values only. The ‘$’ symbol is not required and may result in errors if used.

2) Enter the paid amount for additional items – e.g. 7.50 – under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Prices added to the ‘Additional Quantity’ column will not work if the ‘First Quantity’ column in the same Shipping Zone is blank.

This configuration means your customer will be charged $5.00 to ship the first item, and $7.50 for each additional item – e.g. if the customer orders 1 shirt, their shipping cost will be $7.50 for that product. If they order 3 shirts, their shipping cost will be $20.00 for that product ($5.00 + $7.50 + $7.50).

To create more than two levels of custom pricing based on products, you will need to create a Custom Shipping Method with a rate table based on product quantity.

Variants

If the Product has Variants, you can add different paid amounts to both the Custom Shipping First Quantity and Custom Shipping Additional Quantity columns for each variant individually. This is useful if some – but not all – of your variants always have one custom shipping charge for the first item and a different custom shipping charge for each additional item, or if one or more variants have different custom charges.

1) Click Show Variants.

If all variants have the same custom shipping prices, you only need to enter the prices in the main (parent) product listing (see above). If custom shipping prices are different by variant, use the Variant settings instead.

2) For each Variant that has a paid shipping charge for the first item, enter the amount – e.g. 5.00 – only under the Custom Shipping First Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

3) For the same Variants, enter a different paid amount – e.g. 7.50 – under the Custom Shipping Additional Quantity column for each Shipping Zone the Product will ship to. If custom prices are not required for every Shipping Zone, leave those Zones blank.

Add Custom Shipping Prices To More Products

1) Repeat the steps above for any of the options to add custom shipping prices to other products.

Blend Custom Shipping Prices With Shipping Methods

Once you have configured all of your per-product custom shipping prices, you can select how those charges will be blended with rates from your other Shipping Methods.

By default, Intuitive Shipping adds custom shipping prices to the final shipping cost. Let’s say you have a product with a custom shipping price of $5.00 per item. You also have a Live Rate Shipping Method set up to calculate shipping for other products. A customer orders a mix of other products that result in a live shipping rate from the carrier of $25.16. The customer then adds 3 items with custom shipping charges to the cart. Their final shipping cost at checkout is $40.16 ($25.16 + $5.00 + $5.00 + $5.00).

Alternatively, you can change the blending settings to have the custom shipping charges ignored when other products are in the cart. For example, if the customer orders just the product with custom shipping charges, they pay $15.00 ($5.00 x 3) at checkout. But, if they add one or more products that use standard shipping rates, the custom shipping price is ignored and everything in the cart uses standard shipping rates.

Or, you can change the blending settings to do the opposite. Let’s say you have a bulky product with a custom freight charge of $250.00 for the first item only. A customer orders a mix of products that result in a live shipping rate from a carrier of $25.16. The customer then adds one item with the custom freight charge to the cart. Their final shipping cost at checkout is just $250.00 (the $25.16 is overridden by the custom charge; it is not blended).

Learn how to adjust the blending setting in your Shipping Methods here.

Not sure which version you’re using? Find out here.

Harness the power of Intuitive Shipping to create a series of prioritized, tiered Shipping Scenarios.

Let’s say you have three special product groups, each with its own flat rate and all of which take priority over general rates. You can create multiple Shipping Scenarios to ensure that the correct rate is always displayed no matter what’s in the cart.

For this example, we’ll use Product Tags to identify our special product groups and general weight-based rates for our remaining products. We’ll tag the product group with the highest flat rate as ‘Large’, we’ll tag the group with the next highest flat rate as ‘Medium, and we’ll tag the group with the lowest flat rate as ‘Small’. However, you can use Conditions that look for any product identifier, such as ‘Name’, ‘Collection’ or ‘Vendor’.

This setup guide is useful if you want to charge a tiered, single flat shipping rate for special products regardless of what other products are in the cart. For example, if a customer orders a product tagged ‘Large’, a product tagged ‘Small’ and a general product, only the rate associated with the ‘Large’ product will be displayed at checkout.

This setup process does not combine your special flat rates with your general rates. To learn more about Combined Shipping Methods, click here.

Add The Highest Priority Shipping Scenario

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click the Add Shipping Scenario button.

3) Set Visibility to On.

When Visibility is set to Off, Shipping Methods from this Scenario will only be visible when you use the customer name ‘Intuitive Shipping’ at checkout. Learn more about Visibility settings here.

4) Enter a Title for your Shipping Scenario – e.g. ‘Special Large’.

Shipping Scenario Titles are not visible to customers, so name them something that keeps you organized.

Set The Priority Condition

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Click the Add Another Condition button.

For this example, we’ll set the Condition based on a Product Tag. You can set the Condition based on other product criteria if desired.

3) Click the Condition field, then select Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

Tag is also an option for Customer Conditions. Be sure you select the Tag Condition from the Per Product Conditions group.

4) Set the Condition logic to Equals.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Contains instead of Equals if all of the applicable ‘Large’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

5) Enter the Value as the Tag name you assigned to your highest priority products – e.g. ‘Large’.

Tag values are not case sensitive and can be entered as ‘Large’ or ‘large’.

6) Leave the setting below the Tag value set to ‘ANY product must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the Large product flat rate Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there is at least one product in the cart tagged ‘Large’.

Add A Shipping Method

1) In the Shipping Methods section, click Add Shipping Method beside a Shipping Zone.

Shipping Zones are set up in your Shopify Settings. To learn how to adjust your Shipping Zones, click here.

2) Add a Title for your Shipping Method – e.g. ‘[Carrier Name] Flat Rate’.

3) If desired, enter a custom delivery time or range under Delivery Time (Optional).

Select The Shipping Calculation Method

1) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, leave ‘Select The Shipping Calculation Method’ on Cart quantity. This is the default setting.

Enter The Shipping Cost

1) In the Shipping Costs section, click the Add Another Shipping Cost button.

2) Enter the Up To limit as the ~ tilde symbol.

In the Intuitive Shipping app, the ~ tilde symbol means ‘no limit’.

3) Enter the Shipping Cost. For this example, we’ll use ‘80.00’ – i.e. $80.00.

Shipping Costs are based on your default currency which is set in your Shopify settings. If you change your default currency in Shopify, be sure to re-sync your settings with Intuitive Shipping.

4) Leave the Per Unit (Optional) setting blank.

Additional Settings are not required for this setup.

Add The Second Highest Priority Shipping Scenario

To simplify the process, you can make a Duplicate of your highest priority Scenario, then make minor adjustments to the Condition and Shipping Method, rather than creating a new Scenario from scratch.

If you’re still on the Edit Shipping Scenario screen from setting up your first Scenario, skip ahead to Step 3. Otherwise, begin at Step 1.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside your highest priority Scenario.

3) Click the Duplicate button in the top right. This will create an exact copy of the original Scenario, including the Shipping Method.

4) Confirm Visibility is set to On.

5) Change the Shipping Scenario Title from ‘Copy of [whatever you titled the first Scenario]’ to whatever you want to title your second-highest priority Scenario – e.g. ‘Special Medium’.

The Shipping Scenario Title is not visible to customers, but it helps keep you organized within the Intuitive Shipping app.

Set The Priority Conditions

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Leave the Condition type set to Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

For this example, we’ll keep the Conditions based on a Product Tag to be consistent with the first Scenario. No matter what type of Condition you used in your highest priority Scenario, leave it as-is.

3) Change the Condition logic to Does not equal.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Does not contain instead of Does not equal if all of the applicable ‘Large’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

4) Leave the Value as whatever Tag name you assigned to your highest priority products – e.g. ‘Large’.

5) Change the setting below the Tag value to ‘ALL products must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the Medium product flat rate Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there are no products in the cart tagged ‘Large’.

6) Click the Add Another Condition button.

For this example, we’ll also set the additional Condition based on a Product Tag. You can set the Condition based on other product criteria if desired.

7) Click the Condition field, then select Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

Tag is also an option for Customer Conditions. Be sure you select the Tag Condition from the Per Product Conditions group.

8) Set the Condition logic to Equals.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Contains instead of Equals if all of the applicable ‘Medium’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

9) Enter the Value as the Tag name you assigned to your second-highest priority products – e.g. ‘Medium’.

Tag values are not case sensitive and can be entered as ‘Medium’ or ‘medium’.

10) Leave the setting below the Tag value set to ‘ANY product must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the Medium product flat rate Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there is at least one product in the cart tagged ‘Medium’.

Save Your Settings

Edit Shipping Method

When you created a Duplicate of the highest priority Scenario, it included an exact copy of the Shipping Method you added to it.

For your second-highest priority Scenario, you will need to edit the Shipping Method that was copied from your first Scenario.

1) Click Edit beside the Shipping Method.

2) If you want the tier 2 Shipping Method to have the same title, leave the title as-is. Or, change it if desired.

3) If desired, add or edit any other Display Settings.

4) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, leave ‘Select The Shipping Calculation Method’ on Cart quantity.

5) In the Shipping Costs section, change the Shipping Cost. For this example, we’ll change it to ‘50.00’ – i.e. $50.00.

Shipping Costs are based on your default currency which is set in your Shopify settings. If you change your default currency in Shopify, be sure to re-sync your settings with Intuitive Shipping.

Add The Third Highest Priority Shipping Scenario

To again simplify the process, you can make a Duplicate of your second-highest priority Scenario, then make minor adjustments to the Conditions and Shipping Method, rather than creating a new Scenario from scratch.

If you’re still on the Edit Shipping Scenario screen from setting up your second Scenario, skip ahead to Step 3. Otherwise, begin at Step 1.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside your second-highest priority Scenario.

3) Click the Duplicate button in the top right. This will create an exact copy of the Scenario, including the Shipping Method.

4) Confirm Visibility is set to On.

5) Change the Shipping Scenario Title from ‘Copy of [whatever you titled the second Scenario]’ to whatever you want to title your third-highest priority Scenario – e.g. ‘Special Small’.

The Shipping Scenario Title is not visible to customers, but it helps keep you organized within the Intuitive Shipping app.

Set The Priority Conditions

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Leave the first Condition as-is.

3) Leave the second Condition type set to Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

For this example, we’ll keep all the Conditions based on a Product Tag to be consistent with the first and second Scenarios.

4) Change the Condition logic to Does not equal.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Does not contain instead of Does not equal if all of the applicable ‘Medium’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

5) Leave the Value as whatever Tag name you assigned to your second-highest priority products – e.g. ‘Medium’.

6) Change the setting below the Tag value to ‘ALL products must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the Small product flat rate Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there are no products in the cart tagged ‘Medium’.

7) Click the Add Another Condition.

For this example, we’ll also set the additional Condition based on a Product Tag. You can set the Condition based on other product criteria if desired.

8) Click the Condition field, then select Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

Tag is also an option for Customer Conditions. Be sure you select the Tag Condition from the Per Product Conditions group.

9) Set the Condition logic to Equals.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Contains instead of Equals if all of the applicable ‘Small’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

10) Enter the Value as the Tag name you assigned to your third-highest priority products – e.g. ‘Small’.

Tag values are not case sensitive and can be entered as ‘Small’ or ‘small’.

11) Leave the setting below the Tag value set to ‘ANY product must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the Small product flat rate Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there is at least one product in the cart tagged ‘Small’.

Edit Shipping Method

When you created a Duplicate of the second-highest priority Scenario, it included an exact copy of the Shipping Method added to it.

For your third-highest priority Scenario, you will again need to edit the Shipping Method that was copied from your second Scenario.

1) Click Edit beside the Shipping Method.

2) If you want the tier 3 Shipping Method to have the same title, leave the title as-is. Or, change it if desired.

3) If desired, add or edit any other Display Settings.

4) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, leave ‘Select The Shipping Calculation Method’ on Cart quantity.

5) In the Shipping Costs section, change the Shipping Cost. For this example, we’ll change it to ‘30.00’ – i.e. $30.00.

Shipping Costs are based on your default currency which is set in your Shopify settings. If you change your default currency in Shopify, be sure to re-sync your settings with Intuitive Shipping.

Add The General Shipping Scenario

To again simplify the process, you can make a Duplicate of your third-highest priority Scenario, then make minor adjustments to the Conditions and Shipping Method, rather than creating a new Scenario from scratch.

If you’re still on the Edit Shipping Scenario screen from setting up your third Scenario, skip ahead to Step 3. Otherwise, begin at Step 1.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside your third-highest priority Scenario.

3) Click the Duplicate button in the top right. This will create an exact copy of the original Scenario, including the Shipping Method.

4) Confirm Visibility is set to On.

5) Change the Shipping Scenario Title from ‘Copy of [whatever you titled the third Scenario]’ to whatever you want to title your lowest-priority Scenario – e.g. ‘General’.

The Shipping Scenario Title is not visible to customers, but it helps keep you organized within the Intuitive Shipping app.

Set The Conditions

1) Leave the settings under Condition Match, Product Filtering, and Advanced Options on their Default settings.

2) Leave both the first and second Conditions as-is.

3) Leave the third Condition type set to Tag from the Per Product Conditions group.

For this example, we’ll keep all the Conditions based on a Product Tag to be consistent with the first, second and third Scenarios.

4) Change the Condition logic to Does not equal.

If using Product Name instead of Tag, you can use Does not contain instead of Does not equal if all of the applicable ‘Small’ products have a common word in their name that distinguishes them from other products.

5) Leave the Value as whatever Tag name you assigned to your third-highest priority products – e.g. ‘Small’.

6) Change the setting below the Tag value to ‘ALL products must satisfy this condition’. This will ensure that the General rates Shipping Method is displayed at checkout as long as there are no products in the cart tagged ‘Small’.

No other Conditions are required.

Edit Shipping Method

When you created a Duplicate of the third-highest priority Scenario, it included an exact copy of the Shipping Method added to it.

For your lowest priority Scenario, you will again need to edit the Shipping Method that was copied from your third Scenario.

1) Click Edit beside the Shipping Method.

2) Change the Title of your Shipping Method – e.g. ‘Standard Shipping’

3) If desired, add or edit any other Display Settings.

For this example, we’ll create a weight-based rate table for any products that are not in one of the three ‘Special’ groups. You can calculate shipping based on any criteria, including Live Rates.

4) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, change ‘Select The Shipping Calculation Method’ to Cart weight.

In the Shipping Costs section, you’ll see that the Up To limit and Shipping Cost from your tier 3 Shipping Method are still there, but the unit of measure for Up To has changed from ‘Items’ to your weight unit. For this example, we’ll use kilograms (kg) to calculate weight-based shipping costs.

To change the unit of measure for weight, go to the Settings page after saving your Shipping Method.

5) Under Up To, change the ~ tilde symbol to the maximum weight for your lowest weight-based rate. For this example, we’ll use 5 – i.e. 5 kg.

6) Under Shipping Cost, change ‘30.00’ to the cost of your lowest weight-based rate. For this example, we’ll use 10.00 – i.e. $10.00.

Shipping Costs are based on your default currency which is set in your Shopify settings. If you change your default currency in Shopify, be sure to re-sync your settings with Intuitive Shipping.

7) To add more weight-based rates, click the Add Another Shipping Cost button and repeat the above two steps for each additional rate. For this example, we have five weight limits ranging from ‘up to 5 kg’ to ‘up to 30 kg’, with Shipping Costs ranging from $10.00 to $50.00.

Cost rows should be listed in order of lowest to highest ‘Up To’ value. You can drag and drop each shipping cost row to rearrange the order if needed.

When there are no ‘Special’ items in the cart – i.e. no items tagged ‘Large’, ‘Medium’ or ‘Small, the shipping cost displayed at checkout will be based on the total weight of the cart.

For example, a customer with an entire cart weight of 8 kg will pay $30.00 for shipping. A customer with an entire cart weight of 22 kg will pay $50.00 for shipping.

If your highest Up To limit is a fixed amount – e.g. 30 kg – a customer whose cart exceeds this limit will not be able to check out.

For example, a customer with a cart weight of 34 kg will not get a shipping cost a checkout because 34 kg exceeds the Up To limit of your highest shipping cost (30 kg).

If your highest shipping cost has no Up To limit, enter the ~ (tilde) symbol under ‘Up To’. In Intuitive Shipping, ~ means ‘no upper limit’.

8) If you want to charge $50.00 for any weight higher than 20 kg, change ’30’ to the ~ tilde symbol. In this case, a customer with a cart weight of 34 kg – or any cart weight greater than 20 kg – (with no ‘Special’ products) will pay $50.00 for shipping.

Additional Settings are not required for this setup.

9) Leave all Optional settings blank or on their default setting.

Save Your General Weight-Based Shipping Method

Click the Save button to save your Shipping Method!

Save Your Settings

After saving your weight-based Shipping Method, you’ll be returned to the Edit Shipping Scenario screen.

1) Click the Save button!

Review Your Settings

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Review your Shipping Scenarios. For this example, you should have four (4) Scenarios – General, Special Large, Special Medium, and Special Small.

Shipping Scenarios are listed alphabetically in Intuitive Shipping.

If you prefer to list your Scenarios in order of priority, edit each Scenario Title by adding a number beside it – e.g. ‘1. Special Large’, ‘2. Special Medium’, etc.

How It Works

A customer ordering at least one Large product, any number of Medium or Small products and any weight of General products will pay $80.00 for shipping because only the tier 1 Shipping Method from the ‘Special Large’ Scenario will be activated at checkout.

A customer ordering no Large products, at least one Medium product, any number of Small products and any weight of General products will pay $50.00 for shipping because only the tier 2 Shipping Method from the ‘Special Medium’ Scenario will be activated at checkout.

A customer ordering no Large or Medium products, at least one Small product and any weight of General products will pay $30.00 for shipping because only the tier 3 Shipping Method from the ‘Special Medium’ Scenario will be activated at checkout.

A customer ordering no Large, Medium or Small products and any weight of General products will pay between $10.00 and $50.00 for shipping (depending on the weight) because only the standard Shipping Method from the ‘General’ Scenario will be activated at checkout.

Nice!
You just created a set of Prioritized Shipping Scenarios

With Intuitive Shipping, you can easily create a Shipping Method that applies a signature fee to your Live Rates. You can create a new Signature Required Shipping Method from scratch by following the steps below, or you can skip ahead to learn how to copy an existing Shipping Method and simply add the fee to the rate, allowing your customers the option to choose one or the other.

Add A New Signature Required Shipping Method

If you don’t currently have a Shipping Method that can be copied, or if you prefer to offer only a ‘Signature Required’ Shipping method instead of an option, you can create a new one from scratch.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside an existing Scenario or click the Add Shipping Scenario button to Create A Shipping Scenario.

3) In the Shipping Methods section at the bottom of the Edit Shipping Scenario page, click Add Shipping Method beside the applicable Shipping Zone – e.g. ‘USA’.

Shipping Zones are set up in your Shopify Settings. To learn how to adjust your Shipping Zones, click here.

4) Create a Title for your Shipping Method – e.g. ‘FedEx Ground Signature’.

5) Enter a Description that will help your customers understand that a signature is required – e.g. ‘Signature required upon delivery’.

Select The Shipping Calculation Method

1) In the Calculate Shipping Based On section, choose the desired Shipping Carrier from the Live Rates section of the drop-down list. For a list of which Shipping Carriers are supported by Intuitive Shipping, click here. For this example, we’ll select FedEx.

Set the Shipping Origin Address

1) In the Ship From Location section, select whether your location will be the one provided by Shopify or if you will define a custom ship from location.

2) If you selected Define a custom ship from location in Step 1, the Custom Ship From Location section will appear on the screen. Enter the Country and Postal/ ZIP Code for your custom location in this section.

Enter The Delivery Method

1) In the Delivery Methods section, select the applicable delivery methods provided by your preferred carrier. For this example, we’ll select FedEx Ground.

Signature charges may vary depending on the delivery method. Be sure to confirm the correct fee with your preferred carrier.

Add Fallback Cost (Optional)

The Carrier Service Fallback Rate allows you to set up a flat, fallback shipping rate that is displayed to your customer in the event that the rate request sent to the carrier times out.

Carrier Service fallback Rates do not appear if carrier rates fail for any reason other than a request time out.

For example, if rates fail due to an error with account credentials or if the order exceeds the carrier’s size restrictions, the Carrier Service Fallback Rate will not be displayed.

If you do not want a fallback rate to appear, leave this section blank. If blank, and carrier rates time out, the customer will be shown the default error message at checkout.

Learn more about how the Carrier Service Fallback Rate setting works here.

Enter Package Details

1) In the Packages section, select how you would like your packages to be split – e.g. by Cart Weight. Learn more about splitting packages here.

2) Click the Add Another Package button for each package.

3) Enter the Up To value that will be used to determine when packages will be split.

The unit of measure for the Up To value is determined by the Split Packages Based On setting.

4) Enter the Length (or Depth), Width and Height dimensions for your first package.

5) If desired, enter a value for the Empty Weight of the package. When present, this weight will be added to the total weight of the products in the package.

6) Repeat Steps 1 to 5 to add as many packages as you need.

When splitting packages based on the SmartBoxing™ packing system, Intuitive Shipping supports up to 40 package sizes.

Carrier Settings (Optional)

1) If you have an account with one of our carrier partners, enter your account credentials to access your negotiated rates.

Most carriers do not require an account to access rates. If you do not have an account with a carrier, leave the Carrier Settings blank. When the Shipping Method is triggered, rates will be calculated using the carriers’ standard retail rates when possible.

Carrier account credential requirements vary by carrier. Settings fields will be different depending on which carrier you selected.

Adjust Final Shipping Costs

1) Under Mark Up/ Mark Down, enter the carrier’s flat fee to be applied to the final shipping cost – e.g. ‘5.75’ to mark up the final shipping cost by $5.75.

2) Adjust the other Optional settings as needed.

Save Your Settings

Click the Save button!

Copy From An Existing Shipping Method

Alternatively, you quickly make a copy of an existing standard, ‘no signature’ shipping method, then add the flat fee to the copy.

1) Click Shipping on the main menu, then select Scenarios from the drop-down list.

2) Click Edit beside one of your existing Shipping Scenarios. For this example, we’ll make a copy of FedEx Ground and edit the settings required to make it ‘Signature Required’.

3) In the Shipping Methods section at the bottom of the Edit Shipping Scenario page, click Copy beside the standard ‘no signature’ Shipping Method you wish to copy and edit.

4) Click the same Shipping Zone where your original Shipping Method exists – e.g ‘USA’.

5) Click Edit beside one of the copies of the Shipping Method.

The copied version is identical to the original in every way until it is edited, so it does not matter which copy you edit. Editing one version will not affect the other Shipping Method.

6) Edit the Title of your Shipping Method to distinguish it from the original – e.g. ‘FedEx Ground Signature’.

7) Edit or add a Description that will help your customers understand that a ‘Signature Required’ option is available – e.g. ‘Signature required upon delivery’.

Adjust Final Shipping Costs

All of the settings for the newly copied Shipping Method are the same as the original until manually edited.

1) Under Mark Up/ Mark Down, enter the carrier’s flat fee to be applied to the final shipping cost – e.g. ‘5.75’ to mark up the final shipping cost by $5.75.

Signature charges may vary depending on the delivery method. Be sure to confirm the correct fee with your preferred carrier.

2) Adjust the other Optional settings if required.

Save Your Settings

Click the Save button!

You will now see two (2) Shipping Methods displayed in the Shipping Zone, one for no signature and one for ‘Signature Required’. When the Conditions of the Scenario are met, both options will be displayed to the customer at checkout.
