How shipping methods work in Storeep
Every shipping method belongs to a specific market (country). When a buyer checks out, Storeep shows only the methods configured and activated for their market. You can create as many methods as you need per market, for example a "Standard" method and an "Express" method, each with its own pricing, product filter, and delivery time.
Adding a shipping method
- Go to Settings, then Markets.
- Open the market you want to configure.
- Click Shipping, then Add new shipping method.
- Fill in the fields described below and click Add.
Activate toggle
The Activate checkbox controls whether the method is shown at checkout. It is on by default. You can create a method and leave it deactivated, then enable it later. Deactivated methods are never visible to buyers.
Shipping Name
The name buyers see at checkout (for example, "DHL Express" or "Free Standard Delivery"). Required, maximum 50 characters.
Pricing type
Pick one pricing type. The fields below the selector change with your choice.
Free shipping
Buyers pay nothing for shipping. No price fields appear.
Fixed pricing
One flat amount for every order, regardless of item count or weight.
- Shipping price: the flat amount charged per order, in the market's currency. Required, must be a valid number.
Pricing by quantity
Shipping scales with the number of items in the cart.
- Shipping price: the base amount. Required.
- Per (Unit/s): how many units the base price covers. Required, a whole number between 1 and 999.
The cost is the base price multiplied by the cart item count divided by the per value (it scales proportionally, there is no rounding up). For example, a base price of 10 with Per set to 3 charges 10 for 3 items, 20 for 6 items, and about 13.33 for 4 items.
Pricing by weight
Shipping scales with the total cart weight in kilograms.
- Shipping price: the base amount. Required.
- Per first (Kilogram): the weight in kg the base price covers. Required.
- Charge price: an extra amount added for weight beyond the base. Optional.
- Charge every (Kilogram): the weight step for each extra charge. Optional, used together with Charge price.
The base price covers the first block of kilograms, prorated by the actual weight. Weight above that block adds Charge price for every Charge every kilograms. Leave both extra fields blank to charge only the base.
Calculated later
Tells the buyer the shipping cost will be communicated after the order is placed. No price fields appear, and the order saves a shipping cost of 0 that you set manually on the order later. Useful when the cost depends on details you only confirm after packaging.
Pricing by states / regions (Algeria only)
This type appears only when the market is Algeria. It lets you set a separate price for each of Algeria's 58 wilayat (states), each listed by number and name. States left blank carry no price for that method.
Free shipping threshold (optional)
For any paid type (fixed, quantity, or weight), you can make shipping free once the cart qualifies. Two fields control it:
- Free shipping rule: the condition to evaluate.
- None: always charge the price above (no threshold).
- Cart total: free when the cart subtotal reaches the amount.
- Item count: free when the cart holds that many items or more.
- Cart weight: free when total cart weight reaches the amount.
- Product price: free when any single product line (its price times its quantity) reaches the amount.
- Free shipping amount: the threshold value. Required when a rule other than None is chosen, and must be greater than zero.
Fill both fields or neither: a rule without an amount, or an amount without a rule, is rejected. The threshold is hidden for Free shipping and Calculated later, which never charge a base price.
Filter type (which products the method applies to)
Controls which carts can use this method:
- All products: available for any cart.
- Only specific products: the method appears only when every product in the cart is one you selected. If the cart contains even one product that is not in your list, the method is hidden at checkout. Use the product search to add products, and select at least one valid product.
Filtering by collection is not available, only by individual products.
Shipping duration (optional)
A short text estimate shown to buyers at checkout (for example, Between 24h and 48h). Maximum 50 characters. Leave blank to show no estimate.
Editing and deleting
Click a method in the list to open its edit form, where every field is pre-filled with the saved values. Save with the Save button. To delete, tick the checkbox next to one or more methods and choose Delete shipping methods from the table's dropdown. Deleted methods disappear from checkout immediately.
What to check
- If no methods appear at checkout, confirm at least one method for that market is both saved and activated.
- If a "specific products" method is missing, remember every cart item must be in its product list, so a mixed cart hides it.
- If quantity or weight pricing looks off, recheck Per or Per first: the base price covers that many units or kilograms and scales from there.
- If a buyer is not getting free shipping, confirm the Free shipping rule matches what you intended (cart total vs. item count vs. cart weight vs. product price).
- For Algeria, states left blank have no price for that method, so fill every relevant state.
