What is a shipping zone in this app?
An app shipping zone is where you build the prices checkout should return: fixed rates, weight- or cart-based pricing, conditions, and a visual flow. This is separate from Shopify’s own shipping zones or markets — those decide where the carrier is attached; the app zone decides what prices to return.
Create a zone
- Open Shipping rates in the app.
- Click Create shipping zone (or Create first zone from the home checklist).
- The rates flow window opens. Open Start when… on the left and enter a zone name.
- Use + on the canvas to add conditions and rates.
- Click Save. The zone must have a name before it can be saved.
Tips
- Name zones by destination or purpose (for example “Netherlands” or “EU express”).
- You can open an existing zone from the list to edit the same flow.
- Unsaved changes show a save bar; closing the window while dirty asks for confirmation.
