Create Per-Unit Shipping Rules

What This Does

Per-unit shipping rules let you:

• Add a fee for every X items, pounds, or volume units in the cart

• Stack this on top of a base shipping cost (optional)

📦 Examples:

• Charge $2 per item after 5 items

• Charge $5 per 10 lb after 5 lb

• Charge $5 per 200 volume after 500

🛠 Available on Standard, Advanced, and Enterprise plans.

How It Works

🔢 Per Unit Price (by quantity)

Charge based on item count.

Example:

• $5 per 2 items

• Starts after 5 items

10 items = ⌈((10 - 5) / 2)⌉ * $5 = $15

⚖️ Per Weight Unit

Charge based on total cart weight.

Example:

• $5 per 2 lb

• Starts after 5 lb

10 lb = ⌈((10 - 5) / 2)⌉ * $5 = $15

📐 Per Volume Unit

🔒 Only available to select Magento 1 users

Example:

• $5 per 200 volume

• Starts after 500

1000 volume = ⌈((1000 - 500) / 200)⌉ * $5 = $15
