Advanced Shipping Price Rules - Shipping Cost on Total Cart Qty
A simple setup is to have a base cost for a product, and then add the price per quantity on the Cart page. By using this feature, you can easily set this up.
As an example given below, where the base cost of a product is $3, and there are three different rules that help to calculate the extra cost per quantity.
1. Shipping Discount on Specific Total Cart Quantity: (Based on discount (minus) -1 = Qty between 1 to 4)
If you want to add a discount to specific Cart quantity this rule is helpful.
For example, as shown in the above settings:- I have applied a rule, if Cart Qty is between 1 and 4, Fee Amount is -1
Let’s see on Cart Page:-
The Base cost is $3 always as given at the top of the basic settings. And the discount is -1 on shipping charges. Thus, the total shipping charges would be $2.
2. Quantity based shipping charge on Cart Subtotal - Based on a percentage (5%) = Qty between 5 to 10
If you want to add charges in Percentage on Cart Subtotal for a specific Cart quantity this rule is helpful.
For example, as shown in the above settings:- I have applied a rule, if Cart Qty is between 5 and 10, Fee Amount is 5% on Cart Subtotal.
Let’s see on Cart Page:
The Base cost is $3 always as given at the top of the settings. And charges applied 5% on the total cart. Thus, the total shipping charges would be $16.50
Calculation:
Cart Subtotal = $270 * 5% = 13.50
+
Base Charges = $3
Shipping = $3 + $13.5 = $16.50
3. Quantity based shipping charge on Cart Subtotal - Based on fee amount +4 = Qty between 11 to 20
If you want to add charges an amount on Cart Subtotal for a specific Cart quantity this rule is helpful. For example, as shown in the above settings:- I have applied a rule, if Cart Qty is between 11 and 20, Fee Amount is $4.
Let’s see on Cart Page:-
The Base cost is $3 always as given at the top of the settings and charges applied $4. Thus, the total shipping charges would be $7
