If you’re running a WooCommerce store, you may have noticed that there’s no built-in way to offer quantity-based free shipping. This is a feature that’s often requested by customers, as it allows them to take advantage of free shipping when they purchase multiple items.
Fortunately, there’s a way to add this functionality to your store with the help of a plugin. In this article, we’ll show you how to set up quantity-based free shipping in WooCommerce.
First, you’ll need to install and activate the WooCommerce Quantity Based Shipping plugin. Once the plugin is activated, you’ll need to go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping and click on the “Add Shipping Method” button. Select the “Quantity Based Shipping” option from the dropdown menu and click on the “Add Shipping Method” button.
You’ll now be able to configure your quantity based shipping method. The first setting you need to configure is the “Method Title”. This is the name of your shipping method that will be displayed to customers during checkout.
Next, you need to choose whether you want to offer flat rate shipping or variable rate shipping. If you choose flat rate shipping, you’ll need to enter a fixed price that will be charged for shipping regardless of the number of items purchased. If you choose variable rate shipping, you’ll need to enter a per-item price that will be charged for each item in the order.
Once you’ve configured your shipping rates, you’ll need to scroll down and configure the “Free Shipping” settings. First, you need to enable free shipping by selecting the “Enable Free Shipping” option.
Next, you need to enter the minimum order amount required for free shipping in the “Free Shipping Minimum Order Amount” field. Finally, you need to enter the maximum order amount allowed for free shipping in the “Free Shipping Maximum Order Amount” field.
Once you’ve configured all of your settings, click on the “Save Changes”. Your quantity based free shipping method will now be available during checkout.
How Do I Set Quantity Based Free Shipping in WooCommerce?
If you’re running a WooCommerce store, you may have noticed that there’s no built-in way to offer quantity-based free shipping.
First, when offering free shipping, you need to make sure that your products are properly priced. Otherwise, customers may take advantage of your offer and order a large quantity of items that they would not otherwise purchase.
Second, you need to be aware of the potential for fraud when offering free shipping. If you are not careful, people may place orders for products they do not intend to pay for, and then cancel their order after the products have been shipped. To avoid this, be sure to set up a fraud prevention system such as requiring a credit card for all orders, or using a service such as PayPal that offers buyer protection.
Finally, be aware that offering free shipping may increase your shipping costs. If you are not careful with your pricing, you could end up losing money on each sale.
