12Commerce Features
Shipping Zones & Rates
Shipping zones let merchants define geographic areas — right down to city level — each with its own rates. Rates can be flat per zone or calculated from product weights, and free-shipping thresholds (for example Rs 2,000+) are configurable. Rates display at checkout when the customer enters an address, so there are no surprises.
What you can do with shipping zones & rates
City-level zones, weight-based rates, and free-shipping thresholds — transparent at checkout.
Geographic zones
Define zones at city level — Karachi, Lahore, upcountry — each with its own pricing.
Weight-based calculation
Rates can compute from product weights and dimensions for accurate charges.
Free-shipping thresholds
Set order minimums that unlock free delivery — a common conversion tool.
Transparent checkout
Applicable rates appear when the buyer enters an address, reducing abandoned carts.
The problem it solves
Courier pricing varies by city and weight. Stores that guess shipping costs absorb losses or scare buyers away with inflated flat rates.
Who it is for
Merchants shipping across cities in Pakistan with courier or self-delivery models and varying rates.

Add the geographic areas you ship to, at city level if needed.
