# Shipping Settings

**Shop supports three shipping modes:**

1. **Free Shipping**\
   No shipping fee is charged.
2. **Flat‑Rate Shipping**\
   You set a fixed shipping fee. Every order is charged this same amount.
3. **Free Shipping over X**\
   When an order’s paid amount is **≥ {your threshold}**, no shipping fee is charged.

### STEP 1. Create a Shipping‑Fee Template

Before you go live, you must create at least one shipping‑fee template in Shop to avoid taking losses from uncharged shipping.

**Path:** Shop → Shop → Shipping

Click **Add**

**Select Market**

* **Global:** applies the same shipping rules to all countries you sell to.
* **Specific Regions:** applies the same shipping rules only to the regions you check.

### STEP 2. Choose Your Shipping‑Fee Calculation Method

Within your selected market(s), choose one of these three options:

* **Free Shipping**\
  Customers in the selected market pay no shipping fee.
* **Flat‑Rate Shipping**\
  You enter a fixed fee. Every order placed in the selected market pays that fee.
* **Flat‑Rate + Free‑Over Threshold**
  * If **order total < {threshold}**, charge the flat rate.
  * If **order total ≥ {threshold}**, ship for free.

{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure your template covers *all* your target markets. If you forget a country, its shipping fee will default to 0, and you could lose revenue.
{% endhint %}

Shop displays a warning like this，when some issues show the tips below

> ***issue***

Follow the instructions above to **Add Shipping Rules** for each country listed in the warning.

### 3. Configuration Examples
