The WooCommerce Weight Based Shipping plugin is a versatile shipping solution designed for WooCommerce stores, enabling store owners to calculate shipping costs primarily based on cart weight, with additional customizable conditions. This plugin allows for the creation of multiple shipping rules tailored to various scenarios, ensuring flexible shipping options for customers.
Key Features:
- Table Rate Shipping: Create an unlimited number of shipping rules based on factors such as customer location, cart weight, and subtotal ranges, giving you complete control over shipping logistics.
- Flexible Price Calculation: Each shipping profile can be set to provide a constant price (similar to a Flat Rate) or a dynamic price that varies according to the cart weight. This dual functionality allows for tailored pricing strategies.
- Shipping Classes Support: Override shipping price calculations for specific shipping classes, enabling customized pricing based on product categories or other attributes.
- Weight Step Calculation: Configure shipping rates to apply at specific weight intervals (e.g., every 500g), rather than using actual weight. This feature is useful for simplifying pricing structures for heavier items.
- Flat Rate Shipping: Easily set up any shipping rule as a flat rate option, providing straightforward pricing for customers.
- Conditional Free Shipping: Implement free shipping based on predefined conditions, such as subtotal thresholds, total weight, or other criteria. This can incentivize larger purchases and enhance customer satisfaction.
