Free shipping over a certain amount
Guide to creating free shipping above a certain amount in your Shoporama online shop.
You can offer free shipping to customers who purchase over a certain amount. It's an effective way to increase the average order value.
How to set up free shipping
- Go to Settings → Shipping
- Create a new shipping option or edit an existing one
- Set the price to 0 kr.
- Under Minimum order amount, enter the amount you want the customer to buy (e.g. 499 kr.)
- Click Save
When the customer's cart exceeds the minimum amount, the free shipping option will automatically appear in checkout.
Combination with paid shipping
Most merchants create two shipping options:
- Standard shipping - e.g. $49, no minimum
- Free shipping - 0 kr, minimum order amount 499 kr.
The customer sees both options, but the free option only appears when the order exceeds the minimum amount.
Show free shipping message in the theme
Many themes display a message such as "Free shipping on orders over 499 kr.". You can customize this text in your shop settings or directly in your theme.
Tip: Free shipping over a certain amount
Free shipping over a certain amount is one of the most effective conversion optimizations. Many customers add an extra product to reach the limit. Set the amount slightly above your average order value for maximum impact.
