Shipping Rates in Bold Checkout

Bold Checkout allows you to use price-based, weight-based, or carrier-calculated rates when added directly into the app.

When using Bold Checkout, you must have at least one shipping zone. These zones determine which regions your customers can make orders from and how much it costs to ship your product(s) to them.

If you're ready to proceed with setting up the Shipping process on your store, please visit Creating Shipping Zones in Bold Checkout for more information.

Price-Based Shipping Rates

With Bold Checkout, you can offer price-based shipping rates to your customers.

Creating a price-based rate for shipping is ideal for offering shipping discounts to customers who spend more in your store.

When creating a free shipping rate, we recommend setting it to a rate of $0 with no maximum value. You can then select the Free shipping option.

To setup price-based rates, please follow the steps below.

1. From within the Bold Checkout admin, select Shipping, then Shipping Zones.
2. Select Create Zone.
3. Enter a zone name and select your countries.
4. Under Price-based rates, select Add Rate.
5. Adjust your rate settings accordingly.
6. Select Save.

Weight-Based Shipping Rates

If the weight attached to your store's products vary significantly, you may want to offer weight-based shipping rates to your customers.

To create weight-based rates within Bold Checkout, please follow the steps below.

1. From within the Bold Checkout admin, select Shipping, then Shipping Zones.
2. Select Create Zone.
3. Enter a zone name and select your countries.
4. Under Weight-based rates, select Add Rate.
5. Adjust your rate settings accordingly.
6. Select Save.

Add Custom Carrier Credentials

Bold Checkout gives you the ability to use carrier credentials. Your customers will then receive their shipping rates directly from your preferred provider.

To offer custom carrier shipping rates to your customers, please follow the steps below.

1. From within the Bold Checkout admin, select Shipping, then Custom Carriers.
2. Select Setup Custom Carrier.
3. Name your credential set and select your provider.

   Note: Give this a name that you can distinguish from the Standard Carrier name. IE. "FedEx Custom". You will need to differentiate it from the Standard Carrier Rates when you select it in the Shipping Zone section.

4. Fill out the credentials.

   Note: These credentials can be found within your account with this provider.

5. Select Save.
