Standard Plan
Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureWhen there's a roadblock with your shipping rates our app and highly rated customer support are here to help! Finely control your shipping rates using advanced yet simple conditional logic. Hide, show, add to, or subtract from a shipping rate based on a wide variety of variables and conditions including postal codes, SKU, tags, and more.
High shipping rates kill conversions for small items. But standard Shopify settings double-charge customers by stacking Lettermail and Parcel rates at checkout, leading to even more abandoned carts. FixShip solves this instantly. Tag your lightweight products, and our logic does the rest: Lettermail pricing appears only when the entire cart is eligible. If a parcel-sized item is added, the Lettermail rate vanishes.
- Flexible, easy to express conditional logic w/ many variables & conditions
- Advanced real-time carrier rates
- Control shipping rate titles and how to combine rates
- Restrict some products from shipping certain areas
- Clear logic: lettermail option available if and only if it should be
- Streamlined configuration: add lettermail rates & product tags and you're set
- Non-intrusive: Shopify-native performance invisible to customers
