Free Shipping Bar with Progress Indicator

One of the most popular and effective ways to boost your store’s order values is with a Free Shipping Bar. A persistent note at the top of the page (or bottom, on mobile!) shows your shoppers how close they are to meeting your minimum order size for free shipping. This encourages shoppers to add more products to their order!

Why Use A Free Shipping Banner?

• It prints money
• Provides customer reassurance (re:surprise shipping costs)
• Boosts order value
• Very high return on time invested

How To Create A Free Shipping Bar with Progress Indicator

From your dashboard, click New Banner and select the Free Shipping Banner type.

The Contents section controls the Free Shipping Goal amount, and the text displayed:

• Free Shipping Minimum Amount: This is the subtotal of the merchandise the shopper needs in their cart to qualify for free shipping.

• Empty Cart Message: Shown when the shopper’s cart is empty. You can use the special variable {{ amount_remaining }} to show the free shipping goal amount.
  For example: “Get Free Shipping with any purchase of $100 or more”

• Progress Message: Shown when the shopper’s cart is not empty, but the subtotal is lower than the free shipping goal amount. You can use the special variable {{ amount_remaining }} to show the free shipping goal amount. For example: “Add ${{ amount_remaining }} more to get free shipping!”

• Success Message: Shown when the subtotal is above the Free Shipping minimum. For example: “Your order qualifies for FREE SHIPPING!”
