Overview

Standard shipping settings in WooCommerce can feel limiting when a store sells to different regions, serves different customer groups or carries products that cost different amounts to ship. This plugin adds a rule-based layer on top. You create as many shipping methods as you need and attach conditions to each one, such as location, product category, SKU, tag or supplier. Customers then see only the options that apply to their order.

Rules can also draw on the cart itself. You can set a rate or free shipping based on cart value or the number of items, and you can vary shipping by user role, such as guests, registered customers or wholesale buyers. Delivery day and time controls, payment method rules and variable price rules add finer control. Everything is set up and edited from one management dashboard, which keeps a large rule set easy to review.

Features

  • Unlimited shipping rules: Create as many flat rate shipping methods as you need, each with its own conditions such as location, product categories, SKUs, tags and suppliers.
  • Location-based rates: Set shipping rates for specific countries, states, cities or postal codes, so each destination gets the cost that fits it.
  • Cart total and item rules: Base shipping costs on cart value, item quantity or specific product rules, or offer free shipping when an order reaches a set threshold.
  • User role shipping: Offer different shipping methods to guests, registered customers, wholesale buyers or premium members, so each group sees the options meant for it.
  • Delivery time controls: Block or allow shipping on certain days or times, which helps you plan logistics and avoid delivery conflicts.
  • Payment method rules: Link shipping rules to the payment method a customer picks, giving you another way to decide how shipping fees are charged.
  • Combined targeting: Mix location, user group, cart content and product type in one method, so customers see flat rate options that match their purchase.
  • Free shipping conditions: Turn on free shipping automatically when the conditions you define are met, then manage every rule from a single dashboard.

Best for

  • WooCommerce stores with varied shipping zones
  • Shops that serve wholesale and retail customers
  • Store owners who want free shipping thresholds
