Offer your customers incentives like Free Shipping or Shipping Discounts on specific products. This is a great way for you to promote and provide incentive to buy high ticket items or featured products!
The module allows you to specify which products should be available for Free Shipping and which Shipping Method free shipping applies to, such as UPS Ground. When your customers place an order for one or more products with Free Shipping and select the appropriate shipping method, in our example UPS Ground, the entire cost of shipping will be discounted.
If the customer’s order contains products with Free Shipping in addition to products without Free Shipping then a Shipping Discount for each Free Shipping product will be applied to their order as specified for each product. This allows you to still offer your customers an incentive to purchase featured products while not having to offer them free shipping on their entire order.
Method of discounting
The module works by dynamically excluding each product which is configured for free shipping from the customer’s basket weight at checkout. This effectively reduces the total weight of the basket and the shipping cost returned from any weight based shipping module such as those for UPS, USPS, FedEx, as well as other generic modules that calculate shipping cost based on weight
This dynamic exclusion can be limited to only occur when the customer selects a specific shipping method such as UPS Ground.
