Your store's shipping setup may range from

a simple, singular shipping rate to more specific shipping categories and rates.
In this article, we will go through one example for each of the Base Calculator offered 

In this example, you run a store that sells one main product to the United States and Europe and ships from a single location. You work with two carriers:

To achieve this setup, you need the following configuration:

For each package that is shipped, this calculator takes the package's total and charges a percentage of it. For example:

You can select this option for products in specific stock locations or categories.

The calculator provides a flexible rate depending on the items in a package. (Or, a subset of specific items in a package.) It has the following preferences:

 field to 5, the cumulative shipping rate of your order would break down to:

 shipping rate is applied to the next additional product and the pattern starts over

The calculator computes a value for every item on an order. This is useful for providing a discount for a specific product without affecting other products. It has the following preferences:

Amount: The amount per item to calculate.

Currency: This value must match an available shipping method. The default value is your store's default currency setting.

Suppose your rate per item is $7; if your customers select three products in their order, the shipment is $21 

 calculator is helpful when you want to provide a discount for an order over a certain price. The calculator has the following preferences:

Suppose you want to charge your customers $4.95 for their orders up to $40, or $6.95 if your customers spend between $40 and $95, and offer free shipping if they spend $95 or more. 

Add $40 in your minimal_amount, add 4.95 in normal_amount and 6.95 in discount_amount

in Settings --> Store make sure that the variable 

For instance, using the example above, if your Threshold value is 50, any orders $50 and up will

 if your customers spend $30, the shipping rate is $4.95

 when your customer spends $90, the shipping rate is $6.95 

When your customers spend over $95, the shipping is free

You can select your shipment for a flat rate or ship it for free by selecting the "free" checkbox. 

If the variable is not listed, scroll down and add SHIPPING_FLAT_RATE with a value of your choice and click the checkmark to 

If you want the Shipping to be free. Select the Free checkbox 

You will see that it overrides the SHIPPING_FLAT_RATE variable.

You can automatically calculate shipping costs based on shipment weight. The cost will be presented to the customer at checkout. 

The calculator computes cost based on the weight of a shipment and not on an order. If an order splits into multiple shipments, the calculator will add individual costs for each shipment.

Input the currency code for shipping costs. The default is USD.

If you select another Currency, ensure you have the front-end appropriately set up.

The calculator presently supports three weight tiers.

Each weight tier contains a weight limit and an amount. The weight limit is the maximum total shipment weight for the specified shipping amount. If the total shipment weight exceeds the weight limit for a tier, the shipping cost will advance to the next tier.

The third tier is the default tier and will be assigned to 

 shipment that exceeds the tier 2 weight limit. There is no weight limit on tier 3; it is the most a customer will pay for shipping a shipment.

The small variant weighs 2.5 pounds. Shipping cost for a single unit falls within the tier 1 limit.

If two more units are added (bringing the total to three), the total weight increases to 7.5 pounds. The shipping cost advances to tier 2.

Even if you are shipping a ludicrous number of products, the total shipping amount will be capped at the tier 3 amount.

You can add a custom message below the shipping and billing address collection at checkout. For more information, please refer to the Environment Variables document
