  Shipping Methods  
 

To set up shipping costs, you first must specify the calculation method your store will use. There are three different shipping calculation methods by which your store will calulate shipping charges. To select a method, click the radio button next to the method of your choice. You can only choose one of the following methods:

1. Order Cost
2. Order Weight
3. Order Item Count

**IMPORTANT**
Once you have chosen a shipping calculation method, if you later elect to change it, all Shipping Types are set to inactive and the Shipping Costs are deleted so you can set up new ones.

For more information on these methods, go to the Shipping Costs page.

Below are some definitions of terms found on the Shipping Methods page.

Shipping Calculation Method — The basis by which you charge your customers for shipping the product.
Shipping Type — How the product will ship. UPS, Federal Express, Airborne Express, etc.
Shipping Cost — The actual shipping cost that you charge your customer.
