Overview

Providing free shipping is one of the best benefits for members who make regular purchases in your store. For this, Appstle Memberships offers an automated way to provide free shipping to users who are a part of your membership program.

The process of setting up an automated free shipping is quite simple.

Preliminary Step:

Before jumping into the step-by-step process on how you can set up shipping discounts for members, you need to make sure that you have a discount code that can act as a sample discount code with the conditions/rules you want to have. This discount code needs to be created only in the Shopify's Discounts section as shown in the screenshot below.

For a detailed, step-by-step process on creating a discount code on Shopify, please click here.

Once the discount code is created on Shopify, please follow the steps below to offer free shipping.

Step 1: Create a Membership Plan.

Before providing perks, you first need to create a membership plan. If needed, you can access the detailed process for creating a membership plan here.

Step 2: Assigning a Free Shipping Discount

The next step is to configure the free shipping perk discount so it automatically gets applied whenever a member purchases a product. Once the membership plan is created,

  1. Navigate to the Plan & Perks section.

  2. Click on the edit icon under the Membership Perks column for your chosen membership plan.

  3. Under the Select Perk dropdown. Select the perk for Free Shipping Discount.

  4. Now, you can either create a free shipping discount from Appstle's end(that you can edit later in Shopify's backend discount section), or you can create a free shipping discount code in Shopify and link it with the membership perk. To see how you can create a free shipping discount in Shopify, click here. To see how you can associate an existing discount code in Shopify with perks, click here.
