Managing Shipping Methods and Costs

The shipping management system in Webito is designed to cover all the logistical needs of merchants. Because shipping costs and methods vary for each store depending on the product types and sales policies, Webito allows you to define your own customized Shipping Methods dynamically. For example, you can seamlessly add methods like "Express Mail", "Standard Post", "Local Courier (Tehran Only)", or even "In-store Pickup" directly from your dashboard. When creating each shipping method, you can provide an appealing name, a short description (such as estimated delivery times), and a flat-rate cost for that specific method. These costs are completely transparent and are added to the customer's cart during checkout. You can also toggle the active/inactive status of each method, allowing you to quickly hide a service from customers if a particular delivery option is temporarily unavailable. Currently, shipping cost calculations are based on a Flat Rate per method. However, the development of more advanced features—such as "Free shipping for orders over a specific amount", "Cost calculation based on item weight and dimensions", and "Direct API integration with national postal services for real-time rates"—is heavily prioritized on Webito's roadmap and will be added to your panel soon. By accurately configuring your shipping methods, you not only increase financial transparency for your customers but also optimize the order processing and delivery workflow for your team.
