See every featureShopify shows checkout shipping options as bare carrier names like "UPS Ground," with no context, so shoppers hesitate and email you instead of buying. Avid Shipping Rules rewrites those names in seconds: append a deadline like "Order by 1pm," clarify delivery, or replace a confusing label, all from one admin screen, no code or theme edits. Most checkout apps require Shopify Plus.
Hide, rename, reorder, sort, and de-duplicate shipping methods so checkout shows the rates that actually apply. Build rules from cart value, products, customer tags, and destination - wholesale vs retail, pickup vs shipping, or a rate that should not appear in a given place. Preview a rule on a tester checkout before it goes live. Ask Sidekick what is hidden, renamed, or preview-only, then open the rule.
