How it sells itself

Rule changes shouldn't go live untested. Drydock lets you build rules that hide, rename, or reorder shipping options and payment methods, or block invalid checkouts — and run them against a synthetic checkout before publishing. See exactly what customers would see, with a trace of every condition. Save scenarios as test cases that re-run on every publish.

Show each customer only the delivery options that make sense. Build shipping rules that hide a shipping rate, rename it or move it to the top or bottom at checkout. Conditions: cart subtotal, country, state, postcode prefix or range, PO Box address, customer tag, product tag or collection, and shipment weight. Start from templates such as hide free shipping below an amount or hide express for remote postcodes.

Key points
  • Simulate any checkout before publishing — full trace of every rule and condition
  • Hide, rename, reorder shipping options & payment methods by address, cart, tags
  • Block invalid checkouts with your own message (PO boxes, restricted regions)
  • Saved test cases re-run on every publish — catch broken rules before customers
  • Hide, rename or reorder shipping rates and delivery options at checkout
  • Conditions: cart total, country, state, postcode, PO Box, tags and weight
  • Test a checkout in the app; a shipment always keeps one delivery option
