How to save on product shipping?

Too high shipping cost is one of the reasons why customers don’t complete their purchase. To increase customers’ trust level, you need to inform them about all your shipping opportunities and minimize the shipping fee. At the same time, the well-organized shipping process will decrease your costs. Let’s see 3 tools that will help you to save money on Magento product shipping.

Another way to save on shipping costs is to add various shipping methods and rates. Shipping Table Rates module allows you to set delivery prices based on an address, cart weight, and order subtotal. You can set different shipping costs for specific products, mix rates, and create their combinations. Moreover, you can calculate the shipping rate not only by the parcel weight but also by dimensional weight, i.e. its volume. Show delivery time intervals, comments, and images on the checkout page to motivate customers to complete the order.
