Add extra fees based on the shipping method

This feature allows you to apply additional fees based on the shipping method selected by the customer at checkout. You can charge extra for express delivery, special handling, or local pickup services to recover shipping-related costs.

How it works

The plugin checks the selected shipping method during checkout and applies the relevant fee automatically. You can set different fees for each shipping method, like Flat Rate, Free Shipping, or Local Pickup, using conditional rules.
