Before you create rates
Rates are tied to the zone, and you can have as many rates as you like. You can create price-based rates, weight-based rates, or have both active at the same time—Zapiet - Rates by Zip Code will show all the rates your customer is eligible for.
Create your first rate
In Zapiet - Rates by Zip Code, go to Zones & Rates.
Click the zone you want to create rates for.
Go to the Rates section.
Click Add price-based rate or Add weight-based rate.
You’ll now be able to give your rate a name and a description, set rate limits (minimum and maximum order price/weight), and adjust pricing.
Note
You can change the weight unit and the currency symbol in Settings.
Create a price-based rate
In this example, we’ll create rates based on the order price.
Rate | Order price | Delivery price |
1 | Less than $30 | $5 |
2 | More than $30 | Free |
Rate 1
Let’s give this rate a recognizable name: Delivery rate. We’ll also tell our customers they can get free delivery if they spend more than $30 to give them the incentive to spend more.
For Rate limits, we’ll set:
no minimum order price
maximum order price of $30
For Rate price, we’ll set it to $5.
Click Create rate.
Rate 2
Let’s give this rate a recognizable name: Free delivery.
For Rate limits, we’ll set
minimum order price of $30
no maximum order price
For Rate price, we’ll set it to $0.
Click Create rate.
All done! You should now have these rates:
Create a weight-based rate
In this example, we’ll create rates based on the order weight.
Rate | Order weight | Delivery price |
1 | Less than 60lb | $5 |
2 | More than 60lb | Free |
Rate 1

For Rate limits, we’ll set:
no minimum order weight
maximum order weight of 60kg
