See every featureShipping costs can discourage customers from placing smaller orders. This app lets customers collect items across multiple orders toward a free shipping threshold. Once reached, all orders release and ship together at no cost. If the cart expires before the threshold is met, a shipping invoice is automatically sent to the customer. You control the item threshold, cart duration, and which products qualify.
SP Smart Shipping & Batching calculates accurate freight rates by DIM (dimensional) weight or actual weight, then auto-groups orders into smart batches to cut freight costs. Built for B2B and bulky-item stores, it supports fallback product dimensions, carrier surcharges, future delivery dates, and automated email alerts to your warehouse. Track every batch from collecting to dispatch in one dashboard.
