Shopline: Installing Rates at Checkout

When setting up Easyship Rates in your Shopline store, there are some settings that need to be added.

Activate Checkout on Easyship

In the Store Settings (Connect > Store) scroll to Shipping at Checkout. Click Activate.

Here it’s important to ensure that the store has fallback settings available, since this information will be used to calculate the rates at checkout, in case the product information is incomplete. 

Correct Shipping Zone/Rate Setup in Shopline

Please follow these steps:

• Navigate to your Shopline admin dashboard.
• Settings > Shipping and Delivery > Shipping rate setting 

• Set up shipping zones. If your zones have rates, we suggest deleting them when adding Easyship.
  • Once you have deleted existing rates and have a shipping zone already set up, follow these steps:
    • Click on Add the shipping rates
    • Select Use a carrier or third-party app to calculate rates > select Easyship
    • Select all available services and select Notify customers whenever a new service is ready for use. This is essential in order for live checkout to work properly. You can always block rates from showing up in your Shipping Rules. 

Additional Requirements

Products: Your products on Shopline must be synced to Easyship, and include all required details (weight, dimensions, product category). Learn how to set up products accurately here: Adding and Editing Products 

Boxes: In order to ship products, you must use packaging for your shipment. Saving frequently used packaging is essential when it comes to accurate rates at checkout, as Easyship's box selection algorithm will assign a saved box that fits the order best.

Markup Shipping Costs

Note that you can also mark up prices to account for handling/processing fees by a certain percentage or a flat amount in the rate profile in the above screenshot.
