What’s New at Shopify?

Introducing shipping profiles, a new way to customize shipping settings for specific products and locations. Assign different rates depending on what you sell, where you ship from, and your customer’s location to optimize your checkout experience.

Some uses for shipping profiles could include:

• You sell fragile or bulky items and want to cover the cost of extra packaging, handling, or insurance.
• You ship from multiple locations and want to ship from the one that’s closest to your customer.
• You work with multiple vendors and want to charge different rates based on where the product is shipping from.
• You ship some products with specific mail classes (for example, you sell books using USPS media mail).
