Vary a markup by amount, weight or number of products

Charge a markup that changes with the order, for example $1.00 handling up to 10 lb, $2.50 from 10 lb and $5.00 from 50 lb. You do this with a markup Table.

Choose a basis

The row used is the last row whose From is less than or equal to the value, just like a shipping rule table.

What "Amount" is based on

Base table-amount markup rules on, in Settings, decides the value an Amount table looks at:

• Package value — the value of the products in each box.
• Order value — the whole order's value.
• Shipping rate — the method's shipping rate.

See Global shipping settings explained.

Examples

A 6 lb package adds $1.00; a 12 lb package adds $2.50.
