Creating delivery zones

Delivery zones are countries or regions that you offer delivery to, which you can add in your account so that appropriate delivery rates will be shown to a customer based on the delivery country they choose during checkout.

• Delivery zone types
• Creating zones
• Managing zones
• Default delivery country


Delivery zone types

The delivery zone types that you can create are:

  • An individual country (e.g. United States, Canada)
  • Multiple countries (e.g. Rest of the World, European Countries)
  • Click + Collect - If you want to offer your customers the ability to pick up their order, you can create the ‘Click + Collect’ delivery zone. You will also need to create a delivery rate for the zone, but it can be free of charge. Click here to learn more about click + collect.

Notes about multiple country/area delivery zones

  • Rates configured for the Rest of the World delivery zone will apply to any country selected by the customer that you haven't specifically added as a delivery zone.
  • Rates configured for the European Countries delivery zone will apply to any country selected by the customer that is part of the continent of Europe that you haven’t specifically added as a delivery zone.
  • A similar delivery zone to European Countries exists called EU VAT Zone Countries, which applies to countries that are part of the EU VAT Zone.
  • If you have set rates for both the European Countries and the EU VAT Zone delivery zones, for countries that are part of both, the rates set for the EU VAT Zones will take precedence.

Important!

Both the EU VAT Zone Countries and European Countries zones do not include the UK.
