Shipping methods

In short

You can hide a shipping rate, rename it, or change where it appears in the checkout list. This changes what checkout shows. It does not change how Shopify creates or prices the rate.

Applies to

  • All Shopify plans
  • Manual rates and carrier-calculated rates

Doesn't apply to

  • Creating or pricing shipping rates in Shopify Settings
  • Shopify POS

The three actions

ReorderSets which rate appears firstReorder shipping methods

Each rule does one action only. Use multiple rules if you want to combine actions.

What this does not do

Nex Reorder only works with the shipping rates Shopify already returns to checkout. If a rate is missing because of shipping zones, carrier setup, or Shopify shipping settings, the app cannot show it.

Rates stay in Shopify

Creating rates, pricing them, and assigning shipping zones still happen in Shopify Settings → Shipping. Nex Reorder only changes how those existing rates appear at checkout.

Presets

Presets are common shipping method names such as Standard Shipping, Express Shipping, Free Shipping, Local Pickup, and Overnight.

They are just shortcuts. If your checkout uses a different label, enter the exact label shown in checkout instead.

Targeting

Shipping rules use the same conditions as payment rules. The most common ones here are:

  • Shipping country
  • Shipping state / province
  • Shipping ZIP / postal code
  • Shipping method

These are useful because shipping rules usually depend on the destination or the selected shipping rate.

Frequently asked

Does this change what the customer is charged?

No. Rates and prices stay in Shopify Settings → Shipping. Nex Reorder only changes how existing rates appear at checkout.

Does it work with carrier-calculated rates?

Yes. Carrier-calculated rates can be hidden, renamed and reordered like any other rate.

What if I hide every shipping method?

The customer cannot complete checkout. Always leave at least one rate available.
