Shopify Settings

Install Addition

If you haven't already, add the Australia Post Shipping app to your store

  • Add the Australia Post Shipping app:
    • Open your browser and go to console.addition.app.
    • Enter your myshopify.com domain (e.g., shopname.myshopify.com) and click "Submit"

  • Authorise the App:
    • During installation, authorise the app. This allows the app to provide Carrier Rates and set up the subscription charge (Note: Addition is available on ALL Shopify plan types, including Basic - you do not need to be on a higher tier Shopify Plan).
  • Complete Setup:
    • After approval, you'll be redirected to the Addition dashboard to complete the setup.

  • Update Shipping Zones

Create a Shipping Zone (if not already created):

  • Go to Shopify Settings > Shipping and delivery.
  • Click "Manage rates" on one of your shipping profiles.

  • In the "Add rate" window, select "Use carrier or app to calculate rates," and choose "Australia Post Shipping (Rates provided by app)" from the dropdown menu.
    • If greyed out, the app is already added to this zone. You only need to add the app once to each zone.

Configure Services:

  • Check the desired post services (e.g., Express Post, Parcel Post) and "Automatically show new shipping services to customers when available."
  • Click "Done" and save your changes.

Delete Shopify default rates (Optional)

It's a good idea to delete Shopify's default shipping rates to avoid confusion. By default rates, we mean the standard rates created in Shopify, not the calculated rates provided by a carrier or app. Any rates you set up in Shopify before installing our app are likely default rates.

Access Shipping Settings:

  • Go to your Shopify Dashboard and click Settings in the bottom left corner.
  • Select Shipping and delivery.

Manage Rates:

  • Click Manage Rates in the 'Rates at checkout' section.
  • Scroll to the 'Shipping to' section to see your rates.

Delete Default Rates:

  • If you see a 'Your rates' tab, these are Shopify default rates. Click the three dots next to each rate and select Delete.
  • If Australia Post Shipping is listed under 'Carrier and app rates' tab, you don't need to do anything.

Check Other Zones:

Ensure there are no default rates in other zones, such as international ones.

Save Changes:

Click the Save button at the top right if you've made any changes.

Tip: Delete any default rates in all shipping zones to avoid conflicts.
