How it sells itself

ShipCheck simulates shipping rate requests across multiple addresses, products, and quantities — all from within your Shopify admin. It highlights anomalies such as unexpected free shipping, rates that exceed product prices, missing shipping methods, and inconsistent rate jumps between similar destinations.

ShipIQ gives you complete control over Shopify checkout shipping rates. Create unlimited rules using 7 rate behaviors: flat rate, per-item, weight-based tiers, zip code zones, cart value thresholds, quantity pricing, and free shipping. Target specific products, collections, vendors, or destinations. Rules are evaluated by priority-first match wins.

Key points
  • Bulk shipping rate simulation across addresses and products
  • Anomaly detection: free shipping errors, rate jumps, missing methods
  • Auto-Scan generates test scenarios from your shipping config
  • CSV import and export for scenarios and results
  • Priority-based shipping rules for predictable checkout behavior
  • Flat rate shipping threshold rules
  • Built-in fallback rate to prevent blocked checkouts
  • Shipping rule tester explaining why a rate is shown

How Shoplist compares apps

Store counts come from Shoplist’s crawl of Shopify storefronts, which detects the apps each store runs; they are as of Oct 13, 2026. Reviews, ratings, plans, features and integrations come from each app’s Shopify App Store listing. 28-day figures are labeled when estimated, and a figure that is missing or estimated never decides who leads.
