Delivery Price Breaks

Price Breaks can be added to Delivery Items to allow the delivery cost to be adjusted based on the quantity ordered or the price of an order.

Content Loader

To add price breaks to a Delivery Item in the Content Loader simply copy the delivery item, so you have a duplicate, and modify two fields:

1. Unit Price

2. Minimum Order Quantity

To create price breaks based on the number of items in the basket, enter Item into the Delivery Type column. Then modify the MOU cells to specify the breaks, and the Unit Price cells to enter the delivery costs.

The screenshot below shows a price break at 10 items, so that when the buyer orders 10 or more boxes of bees the delivery will drop from £2.50 to £1.00 per item.

 

To create price breaks based on the price of the items, enter Basket into the Delivery Type column. Then modify the Minimum Order Quantity cells to specify the breaks and the Unit Price cells to enter the delivery costs.

Note, that Basket Delivery Items the Minimum Order Quantity is the total price, not number, of the items. For example, the screenshot below shows a price break at £50, so that when the order for this item is for £50 or more the delivery will be free.
