You need to create product groups in order to set up your rates.

A product can be added to only one group at a time. You cannot add the same product to several groups.


Requirements

  • The Carrier Service API is required when using Zapiet - Product Rates, in order to show the rates in the checkout. You can learn more in our Shopify Carrier API guide.

  • All physical products need to be marked as This product requires shipping in Shopify.

  • Every product group needs to contain a unique set of products.


Create your first product group

For example, you would like to charge more to deliver fragile items.

  1. Click Products and rates.

  2. Click Create a custom product group.

  3. Add a Group name.

In the products section, you can add:


Specific products

  1. In the Products section, product availability is set to Specific products by default. Click Add products.

  2. Tick the items that should be added to this group of products.

    • A product can be added to only one group at a time. You cannot add the same product to several groups.

  3. Click Add.

  4. Click Create group.

Repeat this process to create as many product groups as needed.


Specific collections

  1. In the Products section, click Specific collections.

  2. Click Add collections.

  3. Tick the collections that should be added to this group.

    • If your products belong to multiple collections, you will not be able to add those collections to different product groups.

    • Manual and automated collections are supported.

  4. Click Add.

  5. Click Create group.

Repeat this process to create as many product groups as needed.
