We’ve launched Shipping protection – a feature that safeguards customer orders from delays, damage, or loss. With one click at checkout, shoppers gain peace of mind while you reduce claims, streamline operations, and unlock a new revenue stream.
📍 Go to Navigation > Shipping protection > Choose your preferred display.
How It Works
1. Display at Cart and Checkout
- When customers are ready to pay, they will see the Shipping Protection option directly on the cart or checkout page.
- With just one click, they can add protection to their order.
2. Automatic product creation
- The app automatically generates a virtual product in Shopify called “Shipping Protection”.
- This product is added to the cart to ensure the protection fee is clearly displayed and transparently charged.
3. Flexible pricing methods
✅
Percentage pricing
- Merchants set a percentage (e.g., 2% of the cart value).
- The app calculates the fee based on the cart total.
- The fee is then rounded up to the nearest available SKU price from an auto-generated list (up to 100 SKUs, with incremental prices, e.g., $1.00, $2.01, $3.02…).
- Example: Cart value $60 × 2% = $1.20 → rounded up to $2.01 SKU.
✅
Fixed price
- Merchants set a single flat fee (e.g., $1.00), applied to all orders regardless of cart value.
4. Advanced settings
Merchants can fine-tune rules to maximize revenue and align with business strategy:
Percentage pricing
- Percentage: set the base rate
- Minimum charge: ensure a fee never falls below a certain amount.
- Increment amount: adjust SKU price steps (e.g., +$1.00, +$1.50, +$2.00).
Fixed price
- Min cart value: minimum cart threshold to apply protection.
- Max cart value: maximum cart threshold to apply protection.
- Protection price: the flat fee to charge.
This gives merchants full control over how Shipping Protection fees are calculated and applied.
You can now include the estimated delivery date (ETA) in the “Additional details” section of each order in Shopify.
📍 Go to ETA Checkout Extension > Checkout product line items > Customize to enable this setting.
Once enabled, the ETA shown for each product at checkout will also appear in the order’s backend, making it easier to review delivery expectations after purchase.
You can now create delivery rules based on specific states, provinces, or counties within a country, giving you more control over regional delivery settings.
To use this condition, make sure to add the Country condition first, then add States/Provinces/Counties condition.
📌 Note: Location name differences may occur between the Estimated app and Shopify checkout due to local languages or administrative formats. If a location is missing or mismatched, please contact us for assistance with review or customization.
We’ve enhanced the Product Metafield and Variant Metafield item conditions in Estimate Rule Setup by adding support for two numeric metafield types:
- Decimal
- Integer
This update allows you to create more precise and flexible estimated delivery rules based on numeric metafield values, such as product weight, custom measurements, or production batch numbers.
How to set up:
- Add a new include or exclude Product/Variant Metafield condition.
- Select a metafield type: Decimal or Integer.
- Choose a metafield name (retrieved from your store’s metafields).
- Enter value in one of the following ways:
- Set a minimum (e.g. weight ≥ 2)
- Set a maximum (e.g. inventory ≤ 10)
- Set both min and max to define a range
- Leave both blank to apply the rule to products that do not have this metafield.
Note:
You can add multiple metafields under Product/Variant Metafield conditions. They have an OR relationship at the same level. 
We've introduced a new setting for the
'Inventory locations'
condition when using 'AND'
logic with 'Inventory Quantity'
: "Count inventory only from selected locations"- Turn OFF → Counts the total available quantity across all inventory locations.
- Turn ON → Counts only the available quantity from the selected locations.
Example:
Merchant setup:
- Location A: 0 units
- Location B: 100 units
- Total available quantity: 100
Rule setup:
- Include Inventory Location A
- AND Inventory quantity is min=max=10
Scenario 1: Option OFF (Counts all locations)
- Count total inventory = 100 (A + B)
- ✅ Condition matches → Rule is applied
Scenario 2: Option ON (Counts only selected locations)
- Count inventory in Location A = 0
- ❌ Condition does not match → Rule is not applied
In Rule Display Condition > Location Condition > Countries, Regions, we've added a new option: "Rest of the World."
Selecting "Rest of the World" includes all countries except those specified in other rules. If any country conditions exist in other rules, this option will automatically select all remaining countries.
The new template supports creating rules with most conditions and logic. Instructions are included in the file.
Unsupported conditions: Exceptions, States

Checkout rule name
When creating a rule, you must now specify an internal rule name that is not visible to customers. Existing rules will have their shipping method names converted into rule names.
You can now easily duplicate estimate and checkout rules. This creates an exact copy of the original rule, including all settings.
