How do I set up tiered shipping?
Learn how to set up tiered shipping options.
Tiered shipping can be based on shopping cart price and/or weight using Price tiers and Weight tiers, or for specific countries based on the zone you add the rules to (more info below).
Note: You will need to have at least one shipping zone set up prior to creating your tiered shipping. You will also need to add tiered shipping to each applicable zone as your tiers may vary from zone to zone.
Add tiered shipping - Rule examples and guidelines
To create tiered shipping, add a rule using the instructions for flat rate shipping. Add multiple tiers to one rule to create a tiered shipping option.
Here is an example of tiered shipping and how to create the rules for it:
