See every featureHigh 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.
Zonal gives you control over shipping rates, shipping rules and delivery dates. Set rates by weight, order value and courier. Include or exclude postcodes and ZIP codes, and restrict couriers by collection. Show estimated delivery dates using cut-offs, working days and holidays, with a countdown on product pages.

- Streamlined configuration: add lettermail rates & product tags and you're set
- Non-intrusive: Shopify-native performance invisible to customers
- Set courier rates by weight and value
- Restrict rates by postcode or collection
