SMART Shipping Rates & Rules is listed as free on the Shopify App Store with no paid tiers shown. The app was launched in June 2024 by E-TRADE PARTNER and carries a 'Built for Shopify' badge. There are no subscription fees disclosed on the listing, making it a cost-effective option for merchants needing advanced shipping logic.
It depends on what you want to do. No CCS plan is required for delivery customizations like hiding, sorting, and renaming shipping options at checkout. However, if you want the app to calculate and serve live carrier-based rates at checkout, the Carrier Service (CCS) API is required, which typically means being on Shopify's Advanced plan or higher.
The app supports custom shipping rates based on weight, cart total, quantity, zip/postal code, and product. You can hide, sort, and rename delivery methods at checkout using 15+ conditions including customer tag, product tag, and location. It also supports tiered pricing, per-unit increments, percentage-based calculations, shipping zones by country or postal code, and rate blending to combine multiple rates into one.
Several merchants note the app can feel overwhelming at first due to the depth of its rule-based logic. However, the support team is widely praised for walking merchants through setup in real time via chat. One reviewer noted it 'seemed a bit overwhelming at first, BUT use the customer service chat function — with the support, the app was easy.' No coding or theme editing is required.
Support is a standout strength with a 4.9-star rating across 131 reviews (95% five-star). Merchants frequently call out agents Reymar and Jason by name, praising their fast response times and willingness to work through complex shipping setups over multiple sessions. One merchant noted a support agent 'worked tirelessly with me over three days' to get everything functioning correctly.
Yes. The app's feature list on the Shopify App Store explicitly includes multi-currency, multi-language, and geolocation support. You can create shipping zones targeting specific countries, provinces, and postal codes. One reviewer specifically highlighted using it to divide a country into multiple shipping zones, which was not possible with native Shopify settings.
Yes. Merchants specifically praise the app for rule-based logic like hiding paid shipping when a free option applies, and for setting customer-group-specific rates (including B2B vs. D2C). The app supports conditions based on customer tags, product tags, location, and more, giving fine-grained control over what each shopper sees at checkout.
