Easy Shipping Rate for WooCommerce

Easy Shipping Rate gives WooCommerce store owners full control over shipping costs — without writing a single line of code. Build as many custom shipping methods as you need, assign them to any shipping zone, and price them with flexible conditions that match your exact business rules.

From a simple flat rate to a full table-rate matrix, everything is configured on one screen — a complete shipping toolbox in a single download.

At a glance

• 🚚 Conditional & table-rate pricing by cart total, weight, dimensions, products, location, role and more.
• 🧮 Formulas & percentages in the cost field — 5+[qty]*1.50 or [subtotal]*0.08.
• 🎁 Free shipping by minimum amount, coupon, postcode, or any combination.
• ⚡ One-click starter templates — load a ready-made rule set and tweak it, instead of starting from a blank table.
• 🔎 Built-in debug mode — see exactly which rule set each shipping cost, right on the cart, without guesswork.
• 🛒 Built for the block editor — works in the classic cart/checkout and the new WooCommerce Cart & Checkout blocks.
• 🌍 Multilingual ready — translate your method names, descriptions and labels with WPML or Polylang.
• ✅ HPOS compatible and ready to use out of the box — install it and start shipping.

Quick start: your first shipping rate in 2 minutes

Never set up shipping before? Follow these steps and you are done:

1. Activate the plugin. Make sure WooCommerce is active first, then activate Easy Shipping Rate.
2. Open your shipping settings. In the WordPress admin menu, go to WooCommerce > Settings > Shipping.
3. Pick where you ship. Click a shipping zone (a zone is simply an area you deliver to, like your country). If you have none yet, click Add zone and choose your country.
4. Add the method. Inside the zone, click Add shipping method, select Easy Shipping from the list, and confirm.
5. Name it and set a price. Open the new method, type a name your customers will see (for example “Standard delivery”), and enter an amount in the cost field (for example 5).
6. Save. Click Save changes. Your shipping rate is now live at checkout.

That is all you need for a flat rate. When you want to charge by weight, cart total, location, customer role and more, just add extra rules to the same method — every option is explained right on the screen.

Each method supports multiple stacked rules. Choose whether matching rules are summed, or whether only the lowest or highest cost applies — covering everything from simple flat rates to complex table-rate scenarios.

What you can do

• Set shipping costs based on cart subtotal, quantity, weight, volume, dimensional weight, or number of line items.
• Price rules with formulas and percentages: set the cost to 5+[qty]*1.50 or [subtotal]*0.08 using cart tokens.
• Target customers by location (postcode, city, state, country) or user role.
• Apply rules based on the products or shipping classes in the cart.
• Offer free shipping triggered by a minimum order amount, a valid coupon, a specific postcode, or any combination.
• Nudge shoppers with a “Spend $X more to get free shipping” reminder — on the cart and the checkout, in both the classic templates and the WooCommerce blocks.
• Set a minimum and maximum cost per method.
• Show customers a custom description and estimated delivery date at checkout.
• Translate method titles, descriptions and free shipping labels per language with WPML or Polylang.
• Restrict a method to logged-in users only.
• Pre-select a default shipping method on the cart page.
• Hide all other methods automatically when free shipping is available.
• Schedule a method with a start and end date.
• Import and export shipping methods as CSV files to copy them between zones or stores.
• Load a ready-made template and duplicate rules to build a full rate table in minutes.
• Debug why a rate was charged with an admin-only report on the cart and checkout.

Fast to set up, easy to manage

Building shipping rules should not feel like work. Every part of the interface is designed to get you to a working rate quickly and keep it maintainable as it grows:

• Start from a template — a “Load a template” picker fills the table with a ready-made scenario (flat rate, free shipping above an amount, weight-based tiers, free shipping for chosen postcodes) that you can adjust before saving.
• Duplicate any rule in one click — copy a row to build a big table fast, without retyping every condition.
• Tidy, collapsible sections — each group of settings folds behind a toggle, so a long method fits on one screen and nothing gets missed.
• Per-row controls — duplicate or delete a rule right where it sits, with a confirmation before anything is removed.
• Distraction-free screens — on the plugin’s own pages you only see the plugin’s own messages, not unrelated banners from other extensions.

Know exactly why a rate was charged (debug mode)

Turn on debug mode for any method and, as an administrator, you get a clear report right on the cart and checkout showing every rule that was evaluated, whether it matched, the cart value it was tested against, and the resulting cost — plus the final calculation. Customers never see it. It turns “why is shipping $12 here?” into a two-second answer, and you can switch it on temporarily by adding ?debug_shipping=1 to the cart URL. No other free shipping plugin makes troubleshooting this easy.

Works everywhere your store does

• WooCommerce Cart & Checkout blocks — the free shipping reminder and your method details show up in the new block-based pages, not just the classic shortcodes.
• Multilingual stores — names and labels you type are registered for translation, so WPML and Polylang shoppers see them in their own language.
• High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) and Cart/Checkout Blocks compatibility are declared, so WooCommerce never flags the plugin.

Why choose Easy Shipping Rate?

Many shipping plugins ship a deliberately limited base version — often only weight or cart-total rules — and spread everything else across a yearly subscription or a collection of separate add-ons. The features most stores actually need are routinely the ones you have to go looking for.

Easy Shipping Rate puts the essentials and the advanced tools in the same download. All of the following work as soon as you install the plugin, while they commonly cost extra elsewhere:

• Formula and percentage pricing — 5+[qty]*1.50 or [subtotal]*0.08 using cart tokens.
• Conditions on quantity, line items, volume, dimensional weight, shipping classes and specific products.
• Location and user-role targeting — postcode, city, state, country and customer role.
• Lowest-cost and highest-cost rule calculation modes.
• Stop and cancel rule actions for full control over rule evaluation.
• Free shipping triggered by a coupon, a postcode, a minimum amount, or a combination.
• A “Spend more for free shipping” reminder on the cart and checkout, including the block editor.
• Estimated delivery dates shown at checkout.
• Minimum and maximum cost caps per method.
• CSV import and export of your methods.
• Date scheduling to switch a method on and off automatically.
• One-click starter templates and rule duplication to build tables fast.
• A built-in debug report that shows why each shipping cost was produced — an admin-only troubleshooting tool other plugins simply do not offer.

Build a simple flat rate in seconds, or a full table-rate matrix with stacked conditional rules — all from one screen, with no code.
