Free shipping can be implemented through shipping rates or promotional discounts to boost sales. Here's how to set it up effectively:

Create a Free Flat-Rate Option Set up free shipping by using the Flat Rate option. Name it "Free Shipping" and set both Per Order Fee and Fee Per Item to $0.00.

Implement Weight-Based Free Shipping Offer free shipping for specific weight ranges by setting the cost to $0.00 for selected ranges. Ensure all products have accurate weights for proper checkout calculations.

Free Shipping Discounts Two ways to offer free shipping discounts:

• Create a promo code for customers to enter at checkout
• Set up automatic discounts (Commerce Advanced) that apply when specific conditions are met

You can:

• Remove shipping costs for all orders
• Offer free shipping above a minimum purchase amount
• Apply to all shipping options or specific ones
• Set order minimums (calculated after other discounts)

Benefits:

• Increases conversion rates
• Improves customer satisfaction
• Competitive advantage
• Can offset costs by adjusting product prices

For optimal results, factor shipping costs into your product pricing strategy while maintaining competitive market rates.
