Magento 2 shipping cost as percentage of order
Magento 2 Shipping Cost as Percentage of Order allows you to offer flexible, percentage-based shipping rates instead of relying only on flat fees or carrier-calculated prices. This extension is ideal for merchants who want to tie shipping charges directly to the value of the customer’s cart, ensuring fairness and profitability on every order.
Unlike default Magento shipping options, which don’t allow percentage-based rules, this module introduces a simple yet powerful way to align shipping costs with your business model. For example, if you set a 5% shipping rule, an order of $100 will generate a $5 shipping fee, while a $500 order will automatically calculate $25.
Key Features:
-
✅ Set shipping costs as a percentage of the order subtotal
-
✅ Flexible configuration — define minimum and maximum shipping charges
-
✅ Apply to specific customer groups or store views
-
✅ Combine with free shipping rules for large orders
-
✅ Works seamlessly with discounts and tax-inclusive orders
-
✅ Compatible with Magento 2.4.x and PHP 8.2+
Why Use Percentage-Based Shipping?
Flat rate shipping isn’t always profitable — especially for high-value or low-margin items. By using percentage-based shipping, you ensure that larger orders contribute fairly to logistics costs, while smaller orders remain affordable to customers. This approach creates a balanced strategy that protects your margins without discouraging buyers.
Use Cases:
-
Luxury Goods – align shipping costs with higher-value orders.
-
Wholesale Stores – charge proportionally for bulk orders.
-
Specialty Retailers – provide fair, scalable shipping charges across varying product lines.
Compatibility & Support:
-
Works with Magento Open Source and Adobe Commerce.
-
Supports latest Magento 2.4.7+ versions and upcoming releases.
