What is Free shipping threshold?

A free shipping threshold is the minimum qualifying order amount a shopper must reach before shipping becomes free.

Who this applies to#

  • Use a threshold when free shipping should depend on a minimum purchase amount

What Free shipping threshold requires#

  • Define which products, regions, purchase types, and shipping rates count toward the offer

AOV Progress Bar can show progress toward a free-shipping goal, while the commerce platform still owns the actual discount or shipping rule

What this does not require#

  • A free shipping threshold does not require every destination or shipping method to qualify

Common mistakes#

  1. Showing progress toward a threshold the checkout does not enforce
  2. Setting one threshold without checking shipping cost and margin

Free shipping threshold checklist#

  • Set the qualifying amount
  • Set eligible regions
  • Configure the checkout rule
  • Match the progress message
