shipping zone,before continuing open up a new tab in,your browser and navigate to the lulu,pricing calculator,enter your book details in the,calculator then scroll down to book,shipping estimator,we'll use this estimator to set our,shopify shipping prices according to,what lulu charges for shipping,back to shopify you will now add your,customer facing shipping rates for each,shipping zone we created earlier,under the shipping zone you created,click the add rate button and choose set,up your own rates,let's set up a mail option within the us,for the shipping speed select

in the us,will currently cost four dollars and,ninety four cents,back to shopify now that you know what,your cost will be you can decide what,you would like to charge your customers,for one copy shipped to the us,in this example i simply want to pass on,lulu's cost to my customer so i will put,4.94,in the price field,next we want the shipping price to,correspond with the number of copies the,customer purchases,you can do this with rate conditions,click on add condition below the rate,name and price fields the easiest way to,do this is to base your shipping prices,on the item weight,remember that we have set our shopify,product to weigh one pound,therefore in the minimum weight field,leave it as zero,in the maximum weight field put one,pound,this will ensure that whenever a,customer has one book in their cart they,will be charged four dollars and ninety,four cents if they choose mail shipping,click done,it can get tedious to add a shipping,rate for every possible quantity one way,to get around this is to group,quantities together for example let's,set up our next shipping rate for two to,five copies,click add rate,choose custom flat rate and enter mail,again,in the lulu shipping estimator we see,that the price to ship five books is,seven dollars and ninety four cents,enter this price into the price field,then click add conditions,enter two pounds for the minimum weight,and five pounds for the maximum weight,this will ensure that the user is,charged seven dollars and ninety four,cents for shipping if they have between,two and five copies of the book in their,cart,continue to set up a rate for 6 to 10,copies then 11 to 20 and so on,you will repeat these steps for all of,the shipping options you would like to,offer,in most cases it is helpful to have at,least one other shipping method besides,mail such as ground or express,the process is the same for setting up,those options,click save when you are finished setting,up your shipping rates,after you set up all of your customer,facing shipping options in shopify you,will want to make sure those options are,mapped correctly in the lulu direct app,to ensure lulu ships your order with the,correct shipping method,navigate to the lulu direct app and,click more actions and then settings,scroll all the way to the bottom of this,page and you'll see the shipping options,you've set up in shopify,they will default to automatic mapping,however we recommend clicking into each,option and mapping it directly to the,lulu shipping method you would like to,use,click save,now that you have your product connected,and shipping options created let's test,to make sure everything is set up,correctly by placing a test order within,shopify,navigate to the shopify orders dashboard,click create
