What problem does it solve? Stores lose average order value when customers have no visibility into how close they are to free shipping, and merchants struggle to configure threshold rules, progress indicators, and per-segment variations across platforms. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Platform-specific setup guides: Step-by-step configuration for Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, and custom/headless storefronts, covering both the shipping rule and the progress bar UI. - Rule engine and progress bar code: TypeScript rule resolver with zone, segment, date-window, and priority handling, plus a React FreeShippingBar component with currency formatting. - Threshold economics guidance: Rules of thumb for setting thresholds 20-30% above AOV, A/B testing approaches, and geographic restriction pitfalls. - Use Case: A merchant wants to show "Add $12 more for free shipping" in the mini-cart, with a lower threshold for loyalty members and no free shipping for international orders; this Skill walks through the exact settings and code to implement it. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to set up a free shipping threshold of $75 with a real-time cart progress bar on your Shopify or WooCommerce store.

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I add a free shipping progress bar to my Shopify store?▼

Create a free shipping rate in Settings → Shipping and delivery with a minimum order price condition, then install an app like Hextom Free Shipping Bar. The app reads your threshold and displays a dynamic "Add $X more" message on the cart page and mini-cart.

How to set up free shipping threshold in WooCommerce?▼

Add a Free Shipping method under WooCommerce → Settings → Shipping for your zone, set it to require a minimum order amount, then install a plugin like WooCommerce Free Shipping Bar by WPFactory to render the progress indicator.

What free shipping threshold amount should I set?▼

Set the threshold 20-30% above your current average order value so it is achievable but drives upsells. Verify the economics by confirming the incremental margin covers your average shipping cost, and A/B test different amounts.

Can different customer tiers have different free shipping thresholds?▼

Yes. On Shopify Plus use Scripts with customer tags, on WooCommerce use role-based shipping plugins, and in custom builds use a rule resolver that filters rules by customer segments and selects the highest-priority match.

Why does the progress bar show free shipping but checkout still charges?▼

This happens when the free shipping rate is inactive or overridden by another rule, or when the progress calculation uses a different subtotal than the shipping rule. Ensure both use the post-discount subtotal and that the rate is scoped to the correct zones.

Should free shipping apply to international orders?▼

No, international shipping costs can exceed your margin. Scope free shipping rates to domestic zones only and configure the progress bar app to display only for domestic visitors.
