How to fix: Incompatible shipping service for some orders

Update the shipping service for this product to include all of the possible shipping rates and minimum order values

In this article


Why this issue is happening

One or more of your offers doesn't include a shipping fee. This could be because a shipping fee hasn’t been created or hasn’t correctly been applied due to incompatibility with shipping rules that you have set regarding the price, destination, weight, or number of items in an order.

For example, let’s say you’re showing a pair of shoes that cost $75 USD and you’ve set shipping settings that assign shipping to orders between $0-$50 USD and $50-100 USD. If the customer’s cart already contains an item that costs $30 USD, and they add the shoes, which cost $75 USD, the total will exceed $100 USD and shipping will not be applied.


How to fix your issue

To resolve this issue, examine and change your shipping service settings, so that there’s an applicable shipping service for each potential order, whether it is determined by price, destination, weight, or number of items.
