Choose when a shipping method applies

Flat Rate Shipping Plugin Pro lets WooCommerce stores create multiple shipping methods and set the conditions that control when each appears. For example, a store can apply a method based on both the destination and the products in the cart. Conditions can use countries, states, postcodes, shipping zones, simple or variable products, categories, tags, SKUs, product attributes, visitors, visitor roles, payment methods, coupons, shipping classes, cart quantity, weight, or subtotal before or after discounts.

Combine conditional rules to narrow when a method applies. Set minimum and maximum values for product, category, or cart quantity, subtotal, and weight, as well as shipping-class subtotal. Methods can also be scheduled by start and end date, day of the week, and time.

Calculate the shipping cost

Create fixed-cost, percentage-based, or custom flat-rate methods. Charges can be based on cart quantity or the quantity of a particular product. The [QTY] parameter multiplies a charge by the total number of items in the cart. Percentage rules calculate a fee from the cart subtotal and can use a minimum or maximum shipping amount. Positive amounts add to the charge; negative amounts deduct from it.

Free shipping rules can use different conditions, including minimum order and coupon order amounts. You can create unlimited shipping methods and cost calculation rules.

Choose how matching methods are handled

When several methods apply, options can let customers pick, choose the method with the smallest or highest cost, or charge all applicable methods together. Show methods as radio buttons or a dropdown, set a default method, or restrict a method to logged-in users. Tooltip descriptions and tax calculation controls are also available.

Import or export shipping zones and methods, enable logging, delete existing methods from the backend, and clone configured table-rate methods.

Set up the rules

Install the Pro add-on in a WordPress and WooCommerce environment, then open the shipping settings. Define the locations, products, quantities, weights, or order values that determine when a method applies. Set its cost calculation and checkout display, then review the checkout behavior before making the method available to customers.
