Setting up shipping & fulfillment

Wix Stores: Setting Up a Flat Rate Shipping Rule

Important:

We're in the process of rolling out new shipping settings. If you have a Create Region button instead of Add Region, then you have the new version. Learn how to set up shipping using the new settings.

Set up flat rate shipping to charge the same rate for all purchases delivered to a certain region.

Step 1 | Create or Select a Shipping Region

To start, create the region the shipping rule applies to.

Tip:

If you already created the shipping region, just select it and move on to step 2.

A region can be made of one or more countries. Alternatively, it can be made of one or more regions within a country. You can set up different shipping regions for your store. For example, a merchant might set up 4 shipping rules: a local shipping region for California, a region for the rest of the US, another for Mexico and Canada, and finally one for the rest of the world.

Important:

  • If there is no rule for a region, customers from that region cannot make store purchases.

  • If you previously set up shipping (and tax) in a merchant account (e.g. in PayPal), remove these settings before starting.

  • Can't find a shipping region you need? Contact us to let us know which region is missing.
