Additional cost per item
Once you have a rate setup with your conditions, you can always decide to add additional charges for specific items.
Say you sell both postcards and tables, your $2.99 standard shipping might not cut it for those big, heavy items. That’s where those “extras” come handy.
They rely on the same field, verb, and value pattern as described for filters, with the addition of a “price to add”, which represents the value you’d like to add on the shipping rate if described condition is met.
Let’s say you’d like to add $50.00 shipping for each of those tables (sku: ABC1) in a cart, starting after the first one. You could add an extra;
- Field: Product SKU
- Verb: Equals
- Value: ABC1
- Price to add: $50.00
- After N items: 1
That way, in addition to our $2.99 standard shipping, an extra charge of $50.00 would be added for every table present in the cart, except for the very first one.
Or if you need to add the extra charge even for the first table set the After N item to 0.
- Field: Product SKU
- Verb: Equals
- Value: ABC1
- Price to add: $50.00
- After N items: 0
