Frequently Asked Questions
Can I set up different shipping zones?
Yes, you can configure unlimited shipping zones with different rates for local, domestic, and international destinations.
Does it support multiple carriers?
Absolutely. You can add rates for USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL, or any carrier you work with, allowing customers to compare options.
Can I offer free shipping thresholds?
Yes, you can configure free shipping for orders over a certain amount, specific products, or promotional periods.
Does it handle dimensional weight?
Yes, the calculator supports both actual weight and dimensional weight (DIM weight), automatically using whichever results in the higher rate.
