Shift4Shop allows you to add shipping insurance to your orders. This is a method by which you specify an additional fee that can be added to regular shipping costs. The insurance can either be required on orders over a certain value or can be optional for your customer to choose.
Adding Shipping Insurance
- Go to Settings >Shipping
- Look under the "More Options" area and click on "Insurance"
- Click the "+Add New" button
- In the Min and Max fields, type the minimum and maximum value of the order for your first range. For example, for $0 - $100, you would type 0, 100 into the Min and Max fields.
- Enter the cost of the shipping insurance into the Price field.
- Check the % checkbox, if you would like the insurance cost to be a percentage of the order total.
- Check the Required checkbox if the insurance is to be required on the order. Leave it unchecked if the insurance is optional.
- Click Save when ready.
When applicable, the Shipping Insurance notification appear to the shopper during their checkout process.
Tip: To change the default wording for the shipping insurance notification, go to the Settings >Design >Themes & Styles page, and go to the Store Language section and click on Edit. On the following page, you can modify your wording in the checkout2 section.
A few notes about Shipping Insurance
*Shipping Insurance settings are global to all shipping situations, meaning that Insurance will still be offered/required (when applicable) even if free shipping is displayed. *Finally, Shipping Insurance will not display if you have only one shipping method applicable to the order and you have "Auto Select Shipping" set in your store's Shipping Settings section. (Settings >Shipping >Shipping Settings.)
