Shipping Rules
This document explains all fields, settings, and configuration steps inside the Shipping Rule tab of the CartLift: Cart Drawer & Upsell app.
Note: In this documentation screenshot, only the Shipping Rules tab is active. All other tabs are blurred to focus purely on Shipping configuration.
1. Overview of Shipping Rule Tab
The Shipping Rule tab allows merchants to create and manage dynamic shipping rewards based on cart subtotal thresholds. It supports two shipping reward types:
- Free Shipping
- Reduced Shipping
These rules can be displayed in the cart drawer using a progress bar to motivate customers to increase their order value.
2. Shipping Type Options
2.1 Free Shipping
Free Shipping removes the shipping charge when the customer reaches the defined minimum subtotal threshold.
Example: If threshold is 2000, customer must add ₹2000 worth of products to unlock free shipping.
2.2 Reduced Shipping
Reduced Shipping applies a discounted shipping rate when the cart subtotal reaches a defined threshold instead of completely free shipping.
Example: Shipping reduces from ₹200 to ₹99 after crossing threshold.
