What is a shipping profile and when should you create one?
By default, Appstle processes subscription orders using the same shipping settings found in your Shipping and Delivery section inside your Shopify settings.
A shipping profile lets you choose different shipping settings for subscription orders including adding custom rates and shipping rules for specific products and delivery locations.

Creating a Shipping Profile
Step 1: Navigate to More > Shipping Profile - Add/Manage.
Step 2: Click on the Create Shipping Profile button and give your shipping profile a name.
Step 3: Add one or more subscription plans to the profile by clicking Edit Subscription Plans and choosing any of your current plans that you want to use the shipping profile rules.
Step 4: Add rates to your shipping profile by clicking Edit on Shopify. This will redirect you to the Shipping and Delivery section inside the Shopify Settings.
Step 5: After entering the rates for your shipping profile, click Add Rates.
Step 6: Click Create Zone to set the shipping profile region and rates within that region. To keep the same shipping rates for all locations, add all countries/regions to one zone. To setup different shipping rates based on location, create multiple zones. After creating your zones, click Add Rate again.
Step 7: Set the rate you want for each zone, for example, in the screenshot below the zone is setup for free shipping on all orders within the United States. Once all the rates have been set, click Done.
Note: To add any conditional pricing, like free shipping on orders over $100, click Add Conditional Pricing and set your desired parameters.
