Checkout mockup: Move Free Shipping to top

Moves Free Shipping to the top of the delivery method list at checkout.

Why use it

The problem it solves

Free shipping is one of the strongest conversion levers you have — but only if shoppers notice it. When it sits below paid rates in the delivery list, plenty of buyers skim past it or pick a paid option out of habit, and you lose the goodwill you were paying for.

Benefits

What you get

Puts your most attractive delivery option in the first, most-clicked position.

Reduces accidental paid-rate selection when a free option is available.

Reinforces the “free shipping” message at the exact moment of choice.

No theme or carrier changes — the order is applied at checkout automatically.

FAQ

Questions

Move Free Shipping to top

Does this hide the paid shipping rates?

No. Every rate stays available — Free Shipping simply moves to the top of the list. Shoppers can still choose a paid option.

Will Free Shipping show even when the cart doesn’t qualify?

This template only reorders. If your Free Shipping rate already has a cart-value threshold in Shopify, it appears (and moves to the top) only when the cart qualifies.

Do I need to edit my theme?

No. Import the template and activate it — Nex Reorder applies the delivery order at checkout with no code.
